Happy new year everyone!!

Ask ko lang, nakabili kasi ako ng 2008 Sportage CRDI ngaun lang and gusto ko lang malaman kung kelan ako dapat magpalit ng timing belt and ang odometer pa lang nya is 70k.

Bukod sa timing belt baka me masusugest kayong dapat ko n din na isabay.

And last po saan po me bilihan ng pyesa na malapit s area ko sa me pasig church kami banda..

Thanks po sa mga sasagot.

As per pms schedule timing belt scheduled to be replaced at 65-70 thousand km (that is if you want to follow casa schedule). For parts try good gear, fronte in Banawe or Seiring in araneta ave.

If i may ask drkiko do you know where can i have the works done? Can you recommend one of your trusted mechanics whos familiar with our kia's off course.
Also would you know how much the damage will be?

Ours was done by the dealer/casa. I'll check how much it cost because when you replace the belt, they likewise replace the tensioner and a couple of other parts. Ours is still under warranty, hence the decision to have it done sa casa. I heard that around goodgear in pasay, there are mechanics there that pretty much know how to replace the timing belt. Maybe you can try topgear near p. tuazon in qc?

Thanks for your reply sir. Do topgear have the parts needed like timing belt, tensioner etc.. Can i also have price for casa? Also can you direct me how to get to topgear qc?

TIA

It's best you buy the parts yourself outside as you might save money doing it this way, but if you want to avoid the hassle, you may opt to have them purchase it for you if you want them to do the repairs. Casa including change oil and everything around 15k include of parts and labor. You'll save money if you buy the parts yourself. I suggest you google topgears address. It's at aurora blvd corner a street I don't really remember right know. I'll check when I get to pass by.

I'm looking for a pair of brand new headlights for the 2008 Kia Sportage. The dealership seems to offer them at P15,000 each! A bit too pricey considering their not even projector types.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Oh, the reason I'm replacing the headlights is because, I blacked them out and it didn't really age well. So I want to go back to the original stock. ✌️
