Here's the KIA do-it-yourselfer's "bible", KIA Tech-Info. The site is free to use after supplying a password of your choosing and an email address. Have fun!

Note to mods - could you post this on the other KIA discussions, make this a "read only" discussion, and delete this little "request" message? TIA!

    Just bought a 2004 Optima. Apparently only hard cover repair manual available is from the dealer and costly. Notice there are various CDs and access access rental online. What do you guys use for a repair manual. Thanks.

    I have a feeling that most of us don't do our own repairs.Maybe you could find a manual on line,or go to the KIA site and download it and print.

    Go to this post:
    http://townhall-talk.edmunds.com/direct/view/.f10c8f5/5

    Click on the link in that post (page took a minute to load for me). You'll find a link to online shop manuals for Kias there. That's about the best instruction we can offer, short of coming to your house and downloading it for you!

    Hi -
    you're in the Kia Optima forum, in a discussion about shop manuals.

    You might try our Kia Sportage Maintenance & Repair discussion instead - you can just click on my link to get there.
