2012 Kia Rio

sa mga rio owners dyan..

is there a way to turn off that small LED (mood) light?

naiinis ako sa ilaw na ito. gusto ko na takpan ng sticker eh hahaha!

Have the same problem with it myself on the first night since. I'm thinking of having the power disconnected come first PMS if ever there is no manual switch available. Really annoying!

good day cyberian we have the same car nabasa ko threads dito and im a bit puzzled sa fc mo,ang sakin napansin ko lang ng mag 700 km na yun odometer ko mukang gumaganda fc from 14km/100L nasa 13.6km/100L na sya ngayon,same driving condition at way.this morning nag full tank ako ng caltex gold at hinataw ko sa slex 100-130km naka more than 50km ako register sya ng 6.0km/100L so that is roughly 16.666km per liter sa highway,pero im not counting on it gusto ko uli i-full tank then conpute,tom ill post it here kung ilan kasama na city driving just to be sure kung ano talaga average consumption nito.aircon ko pala nasa manual lang palagi at 24degress set im not using auto climate control maybe culprit din ito sa mataas na fc.try to use 95 octane never lower than that,subok ko na caltex gold

Sir rio5, your highway fc is relatively the same figures with the others and I'm expecting the same. I'm currently less than 1/4 mark of my fuel gauge and expecting to refuel tomorrow. I hope my fc will improve on this 3rd full tank.

I'll try the Caltex Gold on the next full tank. Thanks.

Don't forget to turn off eco!

Don't forget to turn off eco!

Thanks for the reminder!

tingin ko ECO ON halos wala rin pinagkaiba sa consumption eh. kung meron man, konteng konte lang. pero never ko pa na try idrive na naka eco on

[PsychoMp3]

to those who have the Rio Hb, would you recommend it?

Also if regular driving using the manual shift, i think that also turns off eco, right?

Kung fc is your main concern, hindi ko marerecommend ang rio dahil meron ibang mas matipid sa gas na sasakyan sa same class category niya. Otherwise.. it's a great car.

Actually 7 to 10 KM/L is good. both Jazz and City 1.5 is 8KM/L. just got a feedback from my cousin who got a Jazz. The CR-V achieve 6.5 to 7 4x2 2011. My RAV4, maybe due to age only reaches 5.5 to 6.0 now.

Using the Shell V-Power Nitro+ yielded the worst city FC yet, 5.41km/L! Not only that, the lower RON Nitro+ gave me the dreaded engine "knocking" sound on at least 4 occasions with the last one the noise is so loud when accelerating in A/T mode doing 40+km/hr that my wife seating on the front noticed and asked "unsa nang banha?!" ("what is that noise?!). Hirap umakyat, mabagal mag accelerate and the engine emitted a louder growl because the lower power made my foot pressing on the accelerator harder. I'll stay away from Shell from now on since I can't seem to find any Nitro+ Racing available locally here in Cagayan de Oro City.

I am now using Caltex GOLD for my next fc evaluation with "ECO" on to make the comparison more or less fair among fuel yields. My current mileage is 715km.
