I can say from personal experience, CC2's handled really well in snow, ice, heavy rain and tornadoes in an older sorento.

Rating 4.0

I took off my KO2s from my Sorento. They wore well and still had useable tread after 55k miles. But I was tired of the noise and ride on the highway. I put on a set of these Wildpeak tires and am VERY satisfied. They are pretty quiet, ride nice, and are darn good on wet, muddy, or snowy roads.

Pros: quiet, nice ride
Cons: miss heavy sidewall
Vehicle: Kia Sorento
Mileage: 55000 km

OEM KIA Intake manifold

  • Idle quality:
  • Hiss noise:
  • Warning light:
Rating 5.0

The old Kia Sorento with the 3.5 V6 was bad about disintegrating the variable intake manifold runner linkage bushings, causing a vacuum leak. Last time I did one, a metal replacement manifold with the butterflies, linkage and actuators was $15 from Kia.

Pros: metal replacement manifold
Cons: disintegrating linkage bushings

OEM KIA Windshield

  • Chips/cracks:
Rating 1.0

I’m already on my second replaced windshield with a crack already in it. Kia glass is weak as shit. 2 weeks ago I barely heard a rock tink off my glass and it cracked ( I was able to get it filled before it spread) but I’ve already got another from earlier this winter.

Cons: weak glass, cracks easily
Vehicle: Kia Sorento

OEM Hyundai Alternator

  • Warning light:
  • Lights:
Rating 1.0

Hyundai's and Kia's absolutely do not play nice with aftermarket alternators such as Napa and Autozone. I tried them both and they failed within days (Napa was about 1 week) I finally installed the Hyundai/Kia part and it has been fine since.

Pros: fine since installation
Cons: failed within days
Vehicle: Kia Sorento
