2007 Kia Carens [ARCHIVE]

[marga25ph]

Tamad na akong lumabas ng Sabado or Linggo if this is the only purpose. Sa Novaliches pa ako. I'd prefer weekdays after office hours.

Sir if you want set a date/time/place kng wen kau available para nman baka may makasabay din sa date na available kau hope to see you

Available ako any days, Tiendesitas or Metro-Walk, pero I prefer Tiendesitas dahil medyo magulo sa Metro-Walk kung yung dalawang lugar ang pagpipilian. Another place to consider e ang "Cloud Nine" sa Sumulong Highway papuntang Antipolo galing ng Marcos Highway. Maraming parking spaces, tahimik at walang gugulo sa atin kung sakali, at walang trapik pauwi.

To recap, okay sa akin ang August 9, or August 16. Pupunta ako pareho doon kung ano man ang mapagkasunduan.

Other topic: Nagpunta ako sa Kia Marikina kanina para itanong kung puwedeng pa-upgrade ang Sound setup (amp, 4 speakers, sub-woofer), pero sabi sa akin e I can take my own risk dahil pag me nagalaw na electrical connection (by accident or whatever) at naka-apekto ng sasakyan ay void ang warranty ko. Narinig nyo na ba ito?

ladies and gentlemen, my latest fuel consumption : 11.3 km/li. pure city driving.

sarap gamitin ng carens, lakas talaga humatak

if you are looking for letherete seat covers or leather seats, visit lederland. west avenue q.c.. better workmanship than equipt. I had mine installed in that shop, really nice, looks real leather.

Pics naman kung me time ka. O kaya dalhin mo sa EB ang Carens mo para makita naman namin. Kung okay lang sabihin, mga magkano inabot ang leather or leatherette?

lately napansin ko parang may kumakalampag sa likod. di naman gaano malakas but Im a bit concerned. I don't know what it is but I think siomething is not right. Covered ba ito ng warranty? My ride is a month and a week old so I think hindi naman ito wear and tear sa suspension system. I hope you can help me if you also have the same concern. tia

Covered ng warranty yan. ask mo na lang sa service center yun mga concern mo sa unit mo and they'll change the part or they'll tighten it . It depends on the problem of your unit.

But before you go to the service center, check the toolbox first (baka may na loose na mga tools), check the seatbelts (try to place it firmly sa holder nya), and lastly try to check yung reserve tire (baka loose lang)

[bengmd]

to Joshua. the leatherette seat cover cost me 8,500. how do i post pics.? give me instructions, i will try posting it.

to Hanren. If the sound or 'kalampag" you hear sounds like coming from the rear coil spring/ suspension, we have the same problem.

the difficult thing is, the sound is not always there for the mechanic to hear. What they will do is just thigten everything that can be tighten. Once na ma Isolate ko, i will let you know.
It is covered by warranty, the difficult part is, looking for it, where it is coming from. dont worry, mine is 1 year old, and the car is doing great. My family and I are so happy with it.
sana kahit after 5 years, the carens is still performing well. Hopefully.

Doon sa quick reply box natin ay may menu at isa sa mga yon ang "insert image". Pag na-click mo ito, lalabas ang menu box na paglalagyan mo ng URL kung saan nandon ang mga image mo.

Bago mo gawin ito, mag-open ka muna ng account sa www.photobucket.com at mag-upload ka ng mga pictures ng Caren mo doon. Ang URL address ng mga pictures mo dito ang ilalagay mo dito sa "insert image". Yung ibang mga members natin e nakaka-pag attache ng pictures dito sa kanilang mga posts, depende yata sa account yon, dahil ako di allowed na gumawa ng ganon.

Thanks. I checked the tools already in place naman sila. Pati yung tailgate kala ko medyo loose siya pero ok naman sila. yung seatbelts (panay kasi fold nami ng 2nd and 3rd row seats for the kids. ) at yung spare tire ang next na titignan ko.

Thanks. Hopefully makapunta ako sa Kia Pangasinan (kung saan mas malapit) para kahit dun ko muna pacheck before going to Signet (para may reason na sumama sa EB..hehehe)

Yes sa rear portion ko naririnig. Even my passengers have noticed it. But it's hardly discernable. May instance na meron may instance din na wala kami naririnig na kalampag. The road going to and from the house is really not that good kaya tuwing nadadaan ako sa lubak, the suspension is always subjected to a lot of stress. But aside from this minor issue, I'm still happy with its performance.

[SIZE=3]Update lang po sa labanan ng “magkapatid” sa autofocus :[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Kia Carens – 7251[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Hyundai Grand Starex – 5797[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]A difference of 1454. But considering the surge of Starex in a short period of time, baka in a month’s time mahahabol na niya Carens. Please don’t forget to vote everyday and show our support. [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Aware din naman ako sa mga criticisms sa voting system ng autofocus but for us, something good came out of this. Nakuha na naming ni misis yung prize sa monthly draw nung June na Goody bag from Goodyear at Free hotel (deluxe) accommodation for two sa Vista Mar Anilao Batangas. Sana kayo din sunod.[/SIZE]

Hi 2007 carens owner,

I'm planning to buy a New carens, model EX gas a/t. Trading my Honda City, idsi 2003 for 400K. I have some query about the GAS of Carens.
Do you have any idea what is the gas consumption of this car?
Does any advantage of Carens diesel engine over gas.
Almost all of the members of this threads are using Diesel engine. Soonest, I will be a proud owner of new Carens also.

question about rims and tires....

kasya kaya yung 215/65-16 sa Carens?

Mas malaki overall diameter niya by 39mm vs the stock sizes (205/65-15 at 205/60-16). Sabi sa calculator, kakayanin naman yung lapad, so yung diameter nalang ang tanong. Meron bang nakasubok maglagay ng mas malaking overall diameter?

Priority ko kasi yung comfort kaya mas malaking sidewall gusto ko ikabit, at the same time, tataas ng konti ride height. At kung totoong off yung speedo/odometer by 10%, makakatulong din ito ma-correct ng konti.

Thanks!

hi. anyone interested to buy my Carens 2008. LX CRDi purchased
last June at the old price. PM me if you're interested thanks.

Problem ko din yan, ilang balik na ako sa Kia Mandaluyong, di pa rin nila makita. Sabi sakin nung isang mechanic, nakagawa na sila ng same problem, yung right rear coil spring yung tumutunog. Manipis daw yung rubber bushing kaya minsan tumatama sa mounting. Ibabalik ko sa thursday para ipaayos, babalutan nila nung rubber hose yung coil spring mismo para di na tumama sa mounting. Ganito din daw yung ginawa nila sa isang carens na dinala dun, same problem.

Pinalitan nila ng bagong shocks yung left and right rear around 3 months ago, kala nila yun yung problem pero bumalik din yung tunog. Covered ng warranty lahat so don't worry.

Doon sa mga nagpalit na o nag-update ng sound set up, sinabihan ba kayo ng Kia na baka ma-void ang warranty ninyo? Balak ko kasing palitan ang 4 speakers ng Infinity, tapos magdagdag ng 1 amp, saka isang 8 or 10" sub-woofer. Siguro 8" is good enough dahil di naman ako mahilig sa boom-boom-boom na tunog..Gusto ko yung quality sound lang..

masterchief, were they able to identify the problem? its a very good news, i will also have mine done. alam kaya sa ibang kia service center?

thank you, balitaan mo naman kami once you are done with the repair. Thank you again.

[icemancm]

Agree ako dito dami nagpopost ng mga modi nila sa carens pero pag eb n pag uusap aba parang unti lng may gusto anyway nasimulan na ito nun so again buhain lng natin uli ang Eb.
sana naman po ay makita kita tayo

DATE AND TIME : AUG 9 or AUG 16 afternoon or dinner time
WHERE : Metro walk or tendesitas any suggestion feel
free to suggest

!. marga25ph ok both location and date 2. Mschumacher ok both location and date

I think Metro Walk would be a better location parking-wise... officer din po kase ako sa Vios Club Philippines and we usually hold EB's or GEB's at a place where our cars can be parked closely to each other para mas madali ang silipan ng modifications... Metro Walk is a good venue, another good venue would be The Fort, sa parking area ng Bonifacio High Street, medyo maluwag dyan on Saturday Afternoons, kung south area naman, I suggest sa west gate... ok din ako on both dates preferably afternoon para mas madali humanap ng parking area... usually 3-4pm ideal for EBs...
