Car Forum / Kia Cars / April 2006New Owner '06 Rio5
Hello, I recently purchased a new '06 RIO5, and despite almost all highway driving and the same style of driving that used to get me 30+ MPG in a larger, heavier car, I'm getting only around 26-27mpg in my first tanks full in the new smaller, lighter Rio5. My question is, do Kias usually have a "break in" period on their engines where I might expect the MPG to improve as I put on some more mileage? Also, while I have your kind attention, does nayone know where I can find a radio wiring harness for the '06 Rio5? None of the local shops or even the mega stores carry it yet. -Thanks in advance! Kia-Ed Greetings, Sorry but I can't speak for anything concerning the Rio5, but if you are looking for a radio wiring harness try www.pac-audio.com They seem to have an extensive inventory and good customer service.

If they do, they've done a MASTERFUL job of hiding them on their web page. Kia-Ed This should do the trick: http://cgi.ebay.com/Scosche-KA01B-1998-Up-Kia-Stereo-Harness_W0QQitemZ9702194409 QQcategoryZ64579QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem Or maybe you can find a Scosche dealer in your area: http://www.scosche.com/scosche_caraudio.aspx?CategoryID=78&ItemID=KA01B I'm taking for granted that Kia's harnesses haven't changed on 2006 models.. Good luck.

Thank you. I've been getting better mileage each of the first three tanks, so it's probably the same with me. I appreciate your post. Kia Ed I noticed my Sorento s mileage seemed to improve after break in. It also used a little oil in the few first 1000 km >> I have a '06 Ria LX.
