2011 KIA Sportage (GEN 3)

[Starex_Gold]

So, para mawala ang brake noise, OEM ng Tucson ang gamitin natin?

Mali, OEM parin ng Kia. Yung brake pads ng Carens hindi Mobis ang gumagawa. Red yung box niya

hi, can anyone help and point me to a dealer that has a display (and hopefully an available unit) of a Sportage Gas 4x2 AT. thanks in advance!

Sir SG, magkano yan? Sa Casa lang ba available yan? Just for clarification too, brake noise lang nawala, paano yung brake dust? TIA

Hello! Anyone here who tried Helium air on tires? Does it improve cars performance? Thanks!

maybe Nitrogen not helium?

You probably mean nitrogen? Some tire centers (like Minerva) recommend inflating your tires with nitrogen (P45 yata each). Theoretically, it is less corrosive to rubber than oxygen found in compressed air. But wear and tear to the tire and tread will lead to tire replacemant waaay before oxygen damge from inside out ruins s tire. A more practical reason to use nitrogen is that it leaks more slowly fron tires, resulting in less under-inflation of tires, and better fuel economy. But if you make it the habit of checking tire pressure weekly, this advantage is quickly negated.

So if you want to use nitrogen, no problem. But if you don't, not a big deal at all, esp if you check tire pressure regularly. HTH

Exactly! I usually have my tires air checked when i gas up, which is about twice a month. That works for me coz i don't drive too far. But if u can check more often, so much the better.

Go with Nitrogen nalang and more than a few have already said that it improved their ride [a bit]. As for me, I have it in my Sportage as well but I like it kasi I don't have to refill as often as I usually do with normal air.

I guess I can see why you'd want Helium to inflate your tires and perhaps it would be a good option too but not yet. Not until we have super air-tight seals in our tires. You see Helium atoms are so small that as soon as you fill up your tires with it, you'll have to recharge after a few days lang of use [or in fact even if your car's just sitting still].

Traveled 400kms without brake dust

Sa Fronte ko binili, 2,500 lang. Pero sayang kung bibili kayo kahit makapal pa yung original brake pads. Masasanay din naman kayo sa tunog eh.

They say nitrogen is cooler (temperature) than air so it expands less pag mainit and in high speeds.

Ok for most of you guys THANK YOU :2thumbsup: for clarifying and for the inputs... its nitro (atomic no. 7) not helium (atomic no. 2)...they are but both air to me :obvious: (and both are coolants)...if it were a chanel or a louis vuitton then i could differentiate... :girlpower:

And WALTER...im not inhaling helium...have you? :charing:

May Sportage Club PH sa facebook. Sana mag karoon na tayo ng site.
Like natin mga ka sporty!

[fleas2016]

anyone here upgraded their sounds and/or placed a subwoofer?

[fleas2016]

H27 yung fogs natin bro

Konti lang available na H27 hehe.

Limited lang talaga ang option ng 880 H27 bulb. Wala yan sa Philips XV or Osram NB

Just confirmed: 881 H27 12V 27W ang FL bulbs ng Sportage SL. Compared to the 880, the 881 is angled like this:



This is evident sa OEM FL package natin: eBay.

Just cancelled my 880 xenon super whites order kay SNY. Saan kaya meron ganitong bulbs na super white?

Mga Sirs! Kakatawag ko lang po sa Kia Metroeast. Nanghingi ako ng advice for PMS. Ung sportage ko po is 2,600 kms pa lang ang mileage tapos nabili ko nung Dec 23, 2011. Ang advice sa akin is check ko daw muna ung oil (thru dipstick) pag maitim na at di na tumutulo ibig sabihin daw sticky na ung oil kaya need nang ichange oil.

Any advice sirs? Ang estimated cost lang daw is 1,400 pesos. How much po nagastos ninyo sa first PMS niyo at kelan ba talaga dapat mag pa PMS? First 7,500kms or 4 months whichever comes earlier? or dpat sundin ung 7,500kms?

Thanks a lot po in advance!

[IMm29]

You can abide by the 7,500 kms interval. How were the 2,600 kms accumulated? Daily drive in heavy traffic? Or less frequent (like 3x a week) but longer drives? I'm not really comfortable with having more than 5,000 kms in between oil changes, but hey, I might just be old school. Your Sporty is new technology, and I suppose Kia's taken users like you (low mileage) into consideration.

Sir IMm29, ung 2,600 kms po basically pasig to makati lang. pero not everyday. kasi i also travel abroad. parang ganito po. may instances na buong 2 weeks (mon to fri) plus pag weekends, punta lang sa mall. tapos 2 weeks naman di magagamit.

Chinek ko naman ung oil, light brown pa naman ung kulay tapos paghugot ng dipstick e tumulo agad.

Thanks po!
