Your recommendation on that specific impact driver saved me from stripped screws! Greatly appreciate the video. Also for anyone watching with the 2016 FWD application - the rear end 4th bolt is behind the control arm. Just unbolt it and hammer the control arm down so you can get a wrench in there. Worked for me.

I'd like to see how to change the front wheel bearing. I have a Kia sportage lx 2015. To buy it on e.bay as I must order it exactly. I asked at some point to create them and they came wrong. Now I want to change the front wheel bearing and when I ask for them I wouldn't want any new mistakes. Greetings from New Jersey.

We currently do not have an auto repair video that shows you how to replace the front wheel hub assembly on a KIA Sportage. We will keep this in mind in the event that one fails on our car.

So I am shopping for rotors for my 2014 sportage and it shows 2 different rear rotors with different diameters and there looks to be a bevel around the “bowl” of one. Everything else is identical between the two except that. Any idea why?

[@HomeownerRepair]

I guess some of these cars had an electric rear emergency barking brake and some were manual. Just make sure you buy the correct rotors to match what you have, Hope this helps you out.

So i am having a hard time in the rears on my ‘16 sportage. The bolt to remove the caliper bracket is near impossible to get to. Am i missing something?

[@HomeownerRepair]

It should be in the same location as shown in the video

[@TT-wq3ly]

No, you are not missing anything. I had exactly the same problem. L type wrench should be a solution.

[@elihauschild1695]

Running into this now. Yeah we have this issue with FWD application. Thanks for wrench recommendation!

Remove rear swing arm. 19” socket and spanner. Takes 2 minutes

[@joeharvie8362]

Canadian tire wanted $500 for the front and 500for the back. I saved more than 50% doing it self.

Did mine today. Just so people know the adjustment thing for the shoes was directly at the top on mine not at the bottom.
