Where is the OBD II port on my 2008 Kia Rio?

Why can't you get your 02 Kia Rio shifter out of park?
I'm in the process of changing the stereo in my Kia, and pulled the fuse for the 'dinger' when the door is open (all I remember is it is the second one in from the left on the bottom) - I forgot to put it back in, and the car would not shift out of drive. Once the good fuse was back in - shifted normally. Could control the neutral safety switch too - which is a security factor :) Although now I have my own problem of no clock - and not sure where to find that fuse!?
Where is the location of the OBD II port on a Kia Rio?
Im not sure about older year models, but on my 2004 the OBD II port is under the dash lip by my right knee. If I get out and squat down I can see it just fine.
Why might the speedometer on a 1992 Buick Roadmaster not work sometimes?
I had a problem with a 1991 caprice (close to your roadmaster), digital speedo and it would act up, typically not working until it warmed up a bit. It eventually just died out completely. When that happens it also prevented the torque converter from locking up. I replace the VSS - electronic/magnetic module that attaches to back of tranny housing.
How often does a 2004 Kia Rio need a tuneup?
As with any vehicle with spark plugs, the plugs are usually the weakest link. Most people will do it every year unless it is running platinum or iridium tipped plugs. Those usually last longer. I believe the maintenance listing is for 12 months or 12k miles.

How do you replace brake light on 2003 Kia Rio?
Take it to the dealer unless you feel comfortable removing the interior panels at the rear of the car. There are two bolts which hold the rear taillight assembly to the body of the car which are inaccessible unless you remove the panel. The taillight assembly cannot be removed from outside the car.
there are actually 3 bolts that hold it to the frame 10mm socket or wrench for these also a plastic plug with 2 flanged ends also holds it to the frame, just remove the panel, pull the plastic rivets from the frame to the carpeting around the area to access the bolts undo the 3 bolts. Then I had to use an exacto knife to trim the plastic flanges off the plastic plug(dont worry if you screw the three bolts back on and use loctite on them your taillight wont fall off) took me about 25 mins for install and replacement of the carpeting good as new and only cost me 7 bucks for the light and now i have a spare.

What is the average lifespan of a Kia Rio?
While a lot of people like to poke fun at KIA, they have actually improved greatly. The life of a car depends on how well you maintain it. The highest mileage I have personally seen on a Rio5 was 235,000 & the car showed no signs of problems. Maintenance is key!
