#117 of 145 2003 Kia Rio Cinco by sknipster Apr 07, 2006 (9:18 am)
I just bought an 2003 cinco, w/18186 miles on it for 6900, it has A/C, Stereo, CD, auto trans,, seems to be in very very good condition... I figured by now, people who have the 03 should have all the problems figured out and what to watch for...any insight on this,,, was that a decent price?? thank you Replies to this message: corbeka (Apr 08, 2006 9:08 am) chuck1959 (Apr 08, 2006 2:34 pm)

Replying to: sknipster (Apr 07, 2006 9:18 am) Been trying to answer but my computer doesn't like this site????You got a good deal on your Kia. You paid 1/2 of what I paid for the same car new. I've only had to change oil and filters. The window did fall into the door and had to be repaired but that was at no charge. Wish you well with your Kia. Oh, due to the car being so low, I finally lost the plate that was under the car - I assume to keep moisture and dirt out of the engine? iT WAS DRAGGING FOR A few days and a neighbor took pity on me and removed it. Hope its not one of those things that you "have" to have. Replies to this message: chuck1959 (Apr 08, 2006 2:34 pm)

I have to be careful or the front hits. Is there a way to make it higher?I have a 2004.

Replying to: sknipster (Apr 12, 2006 9:11 am) Like maybe the Kia owners have little to say because they have little to complain about???Could that be it? My mileage is hard to decipher because I do mostly city driving with lots of stop and go. It is noisy on the open road - but so was my GrandAm and Olds. There were probably not two coats of paint on the outside - a primer and then the color - I know this by the scratches other cars leave me. So, what do you want to know about, complain about your Kia? I don't know didly about the motor, all the moving parts. Just turn on the key and let it roll. If it does that I am a happy driver.
#125 of 145 sknipster... by iluvmysephia1 Apr 12, 2006 (11:59 am)
I'm thinking you could buy seats from a 2004 or 2005 Rio Cinco and they would fit your 2003 Kia Rio Cinco. You could call a Kia dealer to ask them that specific question and then see about ordering the seats if they do.   Shouldn't be that large of a project, but it sounds like it's worth doing for your driving comfort. It also sounds like one I'd attempt to do myself to save some money, too.
#126 of 145 stirring the pot by sknipster Apr 13, 2006 (7:53 am)
well, that stirred up a few people,, serious,, My wife loves the cinco,,She is proud of it and brags to her fellow church-goers, after all these years,(aerostar, contour, escort, pontiac, & mazda,others) This is is HER car,, all the others were mine.. I just get on here, cause maybe what happens to the cinco happened to other people and they got a solution to it,, therefor I don't have to look like an idiot when i walk into dealer, and say, it's making a thumpity-thump under the middle rear end,,, cause, i already know answer thanks to other people,.. Thanking Y'all now for any help in the future.
