2007 Kia Carens [continued]

*Sir ParakitoJDM: Sorry ngayon lang ulit nakacheck dito. Been away for a vacation..sige sir try ko...


While on my way to Baguio last nigh (7 pm) along McArthur Hway in Moncada Tarlac, a Honda Sir was very eager to overtake me. Mabagal din kasi yung nasa harap ko at ang dami naming sinusundan na trucks. So, sa inis nya siguro, nag overtake siya sa shoulder (right), humarrurut ng todo, and that's when he hit a bystander about to cross the street. I don't know about the condition of the boy but he was hit hard and fell down a few meters away. Buti na lang di ko siya nasagasaan pa. Buti rin at di tinakbuhan ng SIR driver.

Dumaan ako sa SCtex (in visiting Clark and Subic) and I still noticed the sluggish performance. I think it is really time to have the EGR cleaned.

Guys,
Doon sa mga me Carens na may problems sa Sluggish, sure po ako na EGR at turbo may papalitan sila alin man dito, after that back to normal as 80% brand new na lang. It cost me less that 5K for that replacement at labor sa KIA Pasig.

regards sa lahat

So sir ibig sabihin me tama yung EGR or turbo? May option ba na pwedeng ipalinis ang EGR?

*jds: Sir 49,400 kms na ang odo ..due na rin for 50k PMS

why not go b-new, mura naman na ang entry level na carens.

[ajestavillo]

Mura sana kaya lang limited options lang kase company car plan... Im looking at bank repossessed KIA CARENS' with low mileage

Sad to say that I doubt you can find a seller of a Carens with low mileage (1 year old ?) unless the seller is immigrating or the vehicle was involve in an accident.

[ajestavillo]

bank repossessed already saw 2 '10 models and 4 '09 models listed on their website.... but only 2 have 10k kms or below mileages

*ajestavillo: Just be sure the vehicle was not involved in an accident or flooded by Ondoy!

I think it's standard to all makers ang first 1000 KM PMS, usually it's free.

My advice drive your carens to the dealership for your first 1000 km PMS. Kailangan yan para ma change oil, matanggal ang mga accumulated metal particles due to engine break-in. Some claim they got much better engine response & improve FC after their first change oil.

Just my one cent unsolicited advice po.

Pano bang ang proper start up ng carens in the morning at proper shutdown? Wala ako masyado alam sa diesel

proper shutdown for vgt diesel engine carens is to idle the engine at least one minute. never rev the engine before shutting down.

start up? huwag mo nang i hataw kaaagad

Just like any other diesel engine, huwag i-hataw agad pag start pa lang ng engine. Pag shut-down, cool down mo muna ang diesel engine ng 1-2 mins. during a long drive or high speed drive.

go for the carens... you'll love the power of diesel and comfort of a sedan
