The Kia Sedona/Carnival Thread [ARCHIVE]

[hinlog]

Hi there,

I just want to share with you Peeps that I just availed Petron promo of free Carbon Flush to your diesel rides at Petron C5 last Saturday. I was told that the promo is extended up to Aug 18, however availability is dependent on the supply of the chemicals that they use in the process. The service took 20++mins and as a result I noticed very evident change on how my Kia Car engine sounds (refined na) and it definitely reduced black smoke.

You may want to avail of their promo as well.

sir hinlog,
what is the process of the carbon flushing/how is it done? did they required you to buy some products from them before you can avail of the promo and how much is the regular price sans the free promo? TIA!

Hi Jabr,

They sprayed chemical in the intake manifold, tapos nire-rebolusyon yung makina hanggang maubos yung chemical. Then, they add something to your fuel (maybe 100ml) to help clean the fuel injection naman daw. No need to buy nor load fuel in said station, you can just go straight to their repair shop and ask for it. Very accomodating naman sila in my experience, although the 1st time I tried to avail it naubusan sila ng chemical so I just returned and this time it was successful. Hmmn, no known price yet for that service although they guessed that it will cost you 300 to 400PhP once it becomes regular. It was shown in Autoextreme last month with Petron execs promoting the service that's why I pursued it.

magandang hapon sa lahat...

I own a 2000 Carnival LS, acquired it second hand and drove it for about two weeks and so far, so good.

I don't know much bout cars yet (kasi first car namin etong Carnival), back reading this thread helps a lot on certain issues, pero di pako tapos mag-backread. Nasa office kasi...he.he.he.

I have have some inquiries hope someone could help.

1. Is there a replacement headlight cover for the 2000 Carnival LS? Where can I get one with the most reasonable price. Also, pwede bang mapalitan yun ng projector type na HID? Yung nakakabit kasing headlight mejo yellowish sya, pero okay naman so far, nadidiliman lang ako, lalo na pag maulan.

2. Where can I get a set of good seat covers? Okay pa naman seat cover pero mejo jaded na. Inquire ako sa ACE SM-Dasma, they qouted me around 8k for the set RL yata yung gawa. I think this is quite steep.

Will wait for any feedbacks TIA!

hello francomigz:
kung sa seatcover i would recommend seatmate interiors (sto. rosario st. cor. nueve de pebrero mandaluyong city. i had one done on our carnival for 7,500 pesos just 2 weeks ago and i was quite pleased with the quality and fittings of the leatherette seat cover they made for me. you could check out the feedbacks of other tsikoteers about their services.

[francomigz]

Salamat Jabr!

Mejo malayo yata sa amin yon he.he.he. Kasi nasa Gen. Trias, Cavite pa ako. But will look into it, Do they have ready made seat covers already? or they will do measurements first...

Contact numbers naman kung meron...

sa Headlight sino kaya me alam...

[jabr]

wala silang ready made, pero no need to measure kasi meron na silang template ng carnival in their file.took them 2 days to finish my seat covers. they also convert the fabric sidings of our rides to leather or leatherette and can cover our steering wheels and shift knobswith leather while u wait. separate charges though ang mga yun.seen the carnival of the owner, mr. rommel san pedro and its very beautiful. kakaingit!

[jabr]

telephone number of seatmate interiors is 5311299 look for owner mr. rommel san pedro or mang romy his very able manager.
