2010 Kia Sorento: Possible Lemon?

**suysuy** · July 10th, 2013 01:13 AM

I don't need to introduce myself here. We have a 2010 Kia Sorento 4x4 2.2 Diesel. 6 months pa lang ayaw na mag istart. Relay daw ang problema. then fast forward today, siguro 10 times na naibalik sa CASA because of the same problem! what's worse? nangyayari na siya madalas. just this month thrice na ayaw umandar! to make things even worse, nag eengine knock na siya. we are already fed up with our Sorento and we are already planning to file a case. may naka experience na ba dito aside from me regarding this? im afraid baka mangyari din sa 2013 santa fe namin na 2.2r din. buti pa yung 2009 sorento namin na 2.5L VGT ang tibay. kahit anong abuso walang problema!

I have a Sorento bought 2012, it has 17,000km+. Wala akong na experience na ganyan. I'm very satisfied with my sorento. Saan branch niyo nakuha yan sir? Relay lang ang nakita nila sa diagnostic?

ser suysuy, sorry to hear about your problem. sa akin facelifted Sorento...so far ok naman wala ganyang problema....
btw if u don't mine sharing with me your VIN# i can help u check whether its the intial batch of EURO 4 Specs or EURO2?

ang recent batches kasi puro EURO2 para iwas problema sa high-sulfur diesel natin!

ser check mo after opening driver door. may decal dun...
normally VIN# starts with letter K and mahaba set of characters sya!

Sir parakito, how do we determine if it's euro2 or euro4 from the vin#?
