I personally run 80-90 gear oil but some manufacturers recommend 30 grade for their boxes ( straight mineral oil) best check it out at a service dealer centre.

Because it is worn out & fluid may have never been changed or only once every 100,000 miles, instead of every 3 years, as required, to possibly avoid what you have or complete failure Doubt your drive with the original trans since 1995, but time for a rebuild or at least find out what is wrong with it Can not guess at problems from the internet, have to road test & component test a vehicle to find a problem

On the right hand side if the gear selector is a black cover you can remove it with the tip of a key.

No, but you do have to remove the front engine mount and raise and lower the engine to accommodate what your trying to get off. It is a tight squeeze , but you don't have to pull the engine.

Its called the rear main seal and there is realy no way to stop this leak with out replaceing the seal. And its kind of a major job witch requires droping the oil pan and likely raiseing the engine and disconnecting the transmission the seal is not expensive but its quit a bit of labor to do . You need to think if its worth saveing its a 95 . Sorry i couldn't give you a magic solution but there realy i'snt one

Hi, Check the a/c diaphragm idle up! Must be the vacuum line is disconnected or there is a leak in the hose, and the diaphragm itself is not working anymore! Maybe needs adjustment!

IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE IDLE SPEED TOO LOW. IDLE SPEED SHOULD BE 750 - 850 RPM. IDLE SPEED NEED TO BE CORRECT OR IT WILL CAUSE ENGINE RUN ROUGH OR STALL OUT.AC COMPRESSOR WILL TAKE SOME POWER FROM ENGINE WHEN AC IS OPERATING.

That's normal. When you have a 4 cylinder, this can be expected. Most people just turn the ac off when they want to pass someone. The ac compressor just puts a load on the engine in low power/torque apllications like a kia 4 cylinder.

IAC is upstream of air filter.

cover is cracked will need replaced. or seal at crankshaft on cover needs replaced.
