2006 Kia Spectra jerks forward

This is due to two speed sensors that are located on the Auto Box take it to a garage who will plug a computer into a special plug under your dash board sometime these can be reset with the computer but more often than not have to be replaced you can either do this yourself if your handy with tools and don't mind struggling and getting a bit dirty or let the garage do it, the unit's don't cost a lot but garage charges do. Good luck

Timing belt adjustment

The timing belt may be touching something. You will need to look at the belt to see if it is rubbing. I would also ensure all lines were connected, could be a vacuum line making the noise???

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.

Many reasons, depends on the usage and environment. It may be getting worn out and have a drag on it that pulled too much amperage and shorted the motor, or the switch, or blew a fuse.

Fog goes away when i turn on heat. windows fog up from top to bottom. that means it is not a heater core

  • water in...heater core, sunroof, windshield or drain logged, wet feet, snow or ice on feet
  • long trips with heat on and warm air dries carpet, etc. and vent out with window. run air conditioner, it will condense water vapor and drain it away.
  • too many short trips never get the car interior dried out.

May I assume you've tried the 'defrost' setting? Front or rear windshield? I'd be looking at control to turn on 'defrost'. As for the in/out, there's an inlet and outlet hose to the core.

How do I change the license plate bulb rear on a

For the Kia Rio5 model, the lenses above the license plate pop out by using a flat-head screwdriver. The lamp and socket all comes out together... put in new bulb and pop lenses back in and you're good to go. No real tools required other than something to pry the lenses out.

Temp gauge goes straight to hot when u crank it up colf,yet doesn't run hot

Cheap fix. Diagnostics will cost $60 to $90. Sensor, $20 to $30. If that doesn't do it. Then it is the temp motor or the logic chip in the dash. Dashes aren't cheap
