How often do you need to change the timing belt on a 2004 Kia Rio?
Pammy1117
All Kia engines that use timing belts must be replaced at 60,000 miles. The timing belts they use have no leeway. I sell engines, and get calls for Kia engines all the time, simply because someone was cheap and didn't replace. Kia belts WILL pop betwen 61k and 65k.
As someone who owns a 2004 Kia Rio, I can confirm the above answer. I was told by the dealership that it needs to be done every 60,000 miles and that if it goes out, it takes the engine with it and will need to be replaced. Well, I listened to my father who thought these cars are like American cars when it comes to the timing belt. WRONG!!! I let it go 10,000 miles past and I'm telling you....at 70,000 the belt went and so did the engine! It cost me almost $4000 to put another engine in it when it would've cost only about 10% of that to just replace the timing belt. LESSON LEARNED! I'm getting it changed 10,000 miles early next time!
