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.
Your engine comes with new thermostat + housing, new temp sensor, new spark plugs, new water pump.
requested a genuine Kia replacement so it still looks factory. Safelite. They did a good job.
I have my KIA serviced elsewhere but purchase OEM filters to provide them just for this reason. Heard too many stories like this. Plus, could be some off brand filters aren\u2019t designed properly for the engine.
22000km .. sport plus diesel in Australia.... had throttle body replaced at 11000km under warranty...... but apart from that no issues...
Biggest issue was it ate batteries, never had a car go through so many batteries
the older Kia cats were garbage, Ive replaced hundreds of 0420 cats under a recall on Souls.
I’ve had my 2022 Telluride for 10 months and have replaced the windshield twice already due to the cracks that quickly turn to very long cracks stretching across my windshield. I’ve never had to replace a windshield in any of my cars prior to this car, and having gone through 3 windshields (including the original) within 10 months has been annoying.
My 2023 Rio had some little chips brand new had them fix em on the spot
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.
