#10 of 19 Here's a view of the 2009 Kia Spectra that is by iluvmysephia1 Feb 10, 2008 (9:48 am)
codenamed by Kia as TD. It is camouflaged unfortunately because it is still under development. Early covered looks at it look very promising to me.

Here it is, for all the world to see. Supposed to be coming to the ROK soon and to the U.S. in early 2009 as a 2010 (or maybe 2009.5? ) model:   Interior: http://www.kia-world.net/index.php/2008/07/07/spied-first-images-of-kia-forte-in- terior/   Exterior: http://www.leftlanenews.com/kia-forte.html
#14 of 19 Check Engine Light On by jjaysd May 20, 2009 (9:40 am)
Within a week's time when I bought Kia Spectra '09, the Check Engine Light" turned on. Had it towed by the dealer and they fixed the matter saying it's only about the "gas cap." However, very dissapointingly, it turned on again only after a few weeks time. It's very annoying to think that we opted for a brand new car to make sure it won't give us any problems for the next 3-5 years. To think, for 2 months' worth of usage, we have only travelled 1,300 miles. What's up with the Check Engine Light?!? Brand new cars shouldn't have this reccurring problem.

Replying to: jjaysd (May 20, 2009 9:40 am) What was the cause of the 2nd check engine light? If the gas cap is not screwed on tightly each time (for several clicks), the check engine light will come on each time. Replies to this message: jj1054 (Oct 01, 2009 2:48 pm)
#16 of 19 2009 Kia Spectra Check Engine Light by nitaa7701 Jun 25, 2009 (9:49 am)
I have had my car less than a week. It has less than 400 miles on it and I have not gased it up yet. So the question of the gas cap should not come into play here. I've driven it 246 miles since I picked it up from the dealer. This morning the check engine light came on. The car is driving fine, no issues there. The question is why?

Replying to: nitaa7701 (Jun 25, 2009 9:49 am) Did you get an answer? My first instinct, if I had my car less than a week and the check engine light came on, would be to head directly to the dealership! Of course, if you don't live near your dealership then you could take the car to Auto Zone and ask them to run diagnostics and give you the codes, then go to a Kia forum and find what the codes mean. Just my $0.02!
#18 of 19 Low Mileage by kar444 Aug 30, 2009 (6:21 pm)
We just got a 2009 Spectra. We get 24 on the freeway and 17 in the city. I'm not sure what to do about this. I have heard in the past that California has different emissions laws so they mileage is lower. I'm not sure if this is true or not. Any suggestions or comments?

Replying to: backy (May 20, 2009 12:39 pm) Is there a way to reset the code on the check engine light without taking it to the dealership?
