What do these mean? How can I fix them cheaply? Thanks!
Moved topic. This is not performance thread this is a rio thread.Where do you live?
You where able to get the codes did you try clearing them and seeing if they return?
I always clear a code the 1st time and wait to see if it returns before I get concerned.
Well this is the 2nd move unless I forgot the first time. This is not a performance thread.Moved topic. This is not performance thread this is a rio thread.
You need a scan tool!!Okay, call me goofy, but how or where to you get to see these codes?

-Probably the CCV (Canister Close Valve), this is located under the vehicle by the fuel tank.
P0171 System Too Lean
-Check your air intake boot, the boot between the air filter box and intake manifold. Due to the age, the boot has probably cracked. Remove it completely and flex it while inspecting it.

-Possibly the PCSV (Purge Control Solenoid Valve), this is located next to the throttle body.
If you haven't already, create a free login at Kia Global Information System (KGIS). This is the same information us Kia techs use to diagnose vehicles. It also shows you where to locate the DTC related parts. Best of luck.
If your check engine light is on when the car is running....you HAVE to have a code!Check Engine light keeps coming on in my Kia Rio Cinco A/T. It does not start every time I fill gas. The car some times struggles (as if the engine is going to stop) to move if stopped at the signals. There was no error code logged in ECM. What could be the fault. Please provide me some information. Thank you
