What to do if your Kia has acceleration issues?
Make it clear upfront that you would take their findings to the KIA dealer if they agree that’s there’s a problem (and not have this shop do any repairs). If the cost of that is reasonable and affordable for you, IMO it would be your best chance to get this dealer going in the right direction.

Usually it would just happen once for a few seconds and it was very intermittent, often going a week or longer without fault.

How often should I warm up my Kia Rio?
Start the car for 10 minutes until it reads the valve code again. You need to let this vehicle warm up every day for more than five minutes and do not replace any throttle body part if the pieces are not the original ones. Never move the screw that is next to the accelerator spring.
