well generally you drop the trans and replace it, but those sportages are rust buckets underneath. maybe new vehicle time.

we get em in the salvage yard all the time running great but rusted to nothing

Even though we don't doubt your skills to fix vehicles, we recommend taking the car to your local Kia dealership and let one of our qualified mechanics replace the clutch for you.

Start by telling us the symptoms.
