2007 Kia Carens [ARCHIVE]

[parakitoJDM]

Sir, 12000kms pa lang, di ko nga alam bakit ganito na ang takbo ng carens ko, nag start lang naging mabagal nung around 8000-9000kms sa odo, kala ko it has something to do with the turbo (turbo lag) or kala ko dahil lng sa electronic throttle, but nung nilinis nila egr ko, gumanda ang takbo, very responsive na ang engine.

ser sa tingin ko kaya nangyari yan (of course speculation ko lang....) napadami ang idling operation ng kotse mo instead of cruising or ripping the hiway. hahaha. kaya sabihan mo cla ser. na at least once a week eh ihataw naman nila sa hiway....pero natatanggal yung mga carbon deposits.....

Sir wiper, nakakatuwa nga ang nangyari, casa ng chevy dito sa bacolod ang nag adjust or nag linis, actually di ko alam kng ano ang ginawa nila, kasi i was in china during that time, biyenan ko ang nagsabi sa akin. Yung story kasi, i had my rear bumper installed sa casa ng kia, and bcoz yung kia dito walang oven, they have to bring my carens sa casa ng chevy to have it repainted there (isa lng owner ng kia and chevy here), nung nandun na, napansin ng mga mechanics na sobrang mausok ang carens, then tinest drive nila, sobrang mahina ang hatak, so they check the egr, that when they decided to have it adjusted daw, nung kunin na ni biyenan, dun nila sinabi na inadjust daw nila ang egr, so far gumanda takbo ng carens ko, bumalik sa dati ang acceleration and wala nang usok, nawala din ang turbo lag.

Thanks very much for your information. It seems I have same experience with my carens but nosmoke belching. Does your mileage increase after egr cleanup. My mileage now is ranging 7-8 km/l only.

Sir wiper, ganun pa rin ang fuel consumption ko, 7km/liter lng

Hi guys,

My friend bought a 2.0D EX last June 2008. It was ok for a year until July 09 when it suddenly stopped in the middle of NLEX. The diagnosis was a broken turbo(caused daw by a broken air filter which entered the turbo). It was repaired after 3 weeks(tagal dumating ng replacement turbo). Tonight, tumirik nanaman sya infront of Trinoma. Mukhang may problema talaga Carens nya.

Anybody who has experienced this as well? Any pointers on what to do to prevent problems again?

Thanks

mines ok, btw has ur friend changed his air-intake or done any mods? incl. using low resistance filter like K& N? siguro just keep it clean and ensure when cleaning the air-intake contaminants or other foreign objects don''t fall-off or get into the intake passed the filter (meaning it will go to the engine directly....)

Nope, i havent experienced it, mine was bought nov of 2007, problem lng ng carens ko dati ay yung egr but it was fixed already.
