2007 Kia Carens [continued]

[Hanren]

Sirs,
May records pa po ba kayo kung magkano regular PMS with your Carens? Approve na kasi yung application ko for 0% interest 30% DP in 48 months. And we are strongly considering the Carens. Thanks!!! :-)

Sa akin sir usually mga 3k-4.5k ang bawat PMS..ang pinakamahal kong PMS eh nung 20k kms umabot ng 8k plus din.

owners, patanong naman:

-- kumusta ground clearance ng carens? ok ba, kahit fully loaded? i noticed that it's not quite as high as, say an innova

-- any difficulties sourcing parts(not from casa)?

Carens owners, meron na po ba sa inyong nagka problema sa turbo ninyo? I've been hearing that a lot of Carens have had turbo problems and the turbo had to be replaced.

so far 2 years na carens ko( 25000km mileage) wala pa problem vgt ko. i rigorously follow cooling down procedure sa turbo before shutting off the engine specially after long highway driving.

[vinrem]

Mine will be 3yrs na this november and so far no problem with the turbo, but to be sure, i bought a turbo timer, so far egr lang ang na encounter ko na problem sa carens ko.

51,235 odo here. No Turbo problems. Got turbo timer and I followed 5K /3months PMS.

mine is almost 3years, and around 34T km. and i don't even have turbo timer... Turbo is just fine... it should be kasi its the newer design using water cooled system..... so it works in conjunction with the oil lubrication.... so IMHO parang di na kailangan turbo timer....pero it still pays to be diligent in doing a cool down after a spirited high speed run...

normally what i do i just "hinay hinay" in the last 5mins....when nearing home. also u can leave it for 1min. then patay.... no problems what so ever..

[carskeptic]

If possible, avoid KIA. Dami naming naging problema dyan. And to make it worse, ang baba pa ng resale value.

any Kia Picanto User here?

wala ako makausap dito about KIA Picanto.. haha
