Detailed Description

This clutch cable is engineered for manual transmission service on the Kia Rio and is intended to replace the original cable with a part that matches factory fit and function. The steel wire core and polymer outer housing support consistent pedal-to-fork movement, while the fixed-length design is matched to the listed applications. ATP Y-1215 is a practical replacement when the existing cable has stretched, seized, or broken. This part cross-references Pioneer Automotive Industries (e.g., CA-464) for the same application.

Common Problems It Can Address
