IF you don't want to take the bumper off just remove all hoses and the fans like stated above. anpull out radiator you will have to play with it a little but it will slide out.

How do you change the front wheel bearings on a 2000 Kia Sephia?
Hey Roseanne==First, jack up the wheel then remove wheel, then the caliper. Then remove the dust cap over the spindle nut. Then remove the spindle nut and pull the fub and rotor off of the spindle. If the races thst are in the hub are scored remove them with a punch and install new ones. Then replace the inner bearing and NEW seal and put on the car and replace the outter bearing and spindle nut. Torque the nut to seat the bearing then back it off until there is slight play in the bearing. Pack the bearings before you install them and don't put excess grease in between the bearings or in the dust cap. GoodluckJoe

How much will it cost to have a used engine installed in a 96 Kia Sephia?
This question is probably easy to answer and can also be hard to answer, depending how you get it done. For example, I'm doin the job myself and I obtained a descent 1.8 engine for about $350.00 from a wrecking yard. They gave a 90 day warranty, so I'm installing it between the hours I come home from work. Labor work is by far very tidious and sometimes hard to acquire. Any other person that is installing the engine has their own price, but luckily for me, I'm doing it myself. If I was doing it for someone else I would probably charge by the hour. Depending how much an hour I would want it for. It might be 9.00,10.00, or more and an hour and like I said it all depends on the mechanic that will be doing the job. So be extra nice when time to get your price! Engine prices come in all sizes and range, so do some hunting around before you buy. And when it's time to buy, make time to carefully check out the engine for any damage. Make sure it's a good engine with less mileages. So good luck and have fun!

Where is the cabin air filter in a Kia Sportage?
1995 thru 2002 does not have one , 2005+ models have it behind the glove box. The manual shows you (somewhat poorly) how to dislodge the glove compartment.
I checked the Chilton Repair Manual for the 2003 Grand Caravan. According to that book, the fuse for the dash board lights is a self-resetting fuse that must be serviced by the dealer. Its somewhere under the dash, and apparently cannot be replaced or reset by the user. Kind of the same idea as the headlights on the Pacifica.
