Your manual will tell you all specs for oil, trans fluid etc.and yes autos have filters that need replaced. dont have to if its shifting smooth. no need to spend more money if you dont need to. why fix whats not broke.

SOURCE: How do you replace a Drivers side headlight bulb 2006 kia spectra

Helps to remove the battery, but small ahbds can do it.

Directly behind the lens is a big round cap ... twist it off. The bulb is held in place with a spring that locks in to a notch in the holder. When handling the new bulb, don't touch the glass. The oil from your skin will cause it to shatter when turned on.

SOURCE: Changing transmission fluid for 06 Kia Sedona

Transmissions these days need very little maintenance, our fluids are advanced formulas that hold up for an average of 100,000 miles, most vehicle manufactures recommend no maintenance for automatic transaxles these days.As for a transmission flush I don't recommend this because it's an expense that is not needed and possibly could loosen some contaminants setting them loose to possibly clog some of the very small passages in the transaxle requiring full transaxle service,which could include removal,dissassembly,etc of your trans.Now draining and replacing fluid is OK if that makes you feel a peace of mind but normally not needed,if you decide to do that,as far as quantity just note approx. how much fluid is drained and purchase similar amount in quarts and then refill (DO NOT OVERFILL)
start engine, let it warm up to operating temp,then check the transmission dipstick for the correct level,remember the vehicle needs to be on a level surface,hot idiling in park when you check the fluid level. Good luck !

On a 2006 kia spectra 5 manual transmition where do I fill it at

Manual transmissions typically have a drain plug and a fill plug. The level to fill to is usually where it starts running out of the fill plug. I dont know of a manual transmission with a dip stick, like an auto, if that's what you are looking for.

Is there a drain plug on kia rio 2003 automatic transmission to change oil and how many leater is needed to change the oil.

Most cars, you have to drop the entire transmission pan to drain out the fluid. You have to buy a new pan gasket and filter too. Use Dexron VI transmission fluid. Total 5.9 liters. This is probably for the total system capacity. When you drop the pan, only about half of the transmission fluid drains out of the system. Only a professional shop can push out all of the transmission fluid.

Transmission stuck in limp mode.

Old fluid can cause problems. I would have changed the oil, filter and pan gasket before doing anything else. Make sure you get the right type of trans fluid, so many varieties these days and not interchangeable either.

00' Kia Spectra. Change auto transmission fluid

You would need to take the pan off to access the "filter" but you would be ok just to do an oil change. Unless there is a problem auto boxes are very clean inside.
