The Kia Sedona/Carnival Thread [ARCHIVE]

[porgie]

Hi! my cousin owns a KIA CARNIVAL (A/T) kaya lang di ako sure kung anong model, lately puro sira siya (sakitin na ata ).

Hingi po sana ako ng recommendations about:
1) Saan mura bumili ng OEM Parts?
2) Saan magaling gumawa ng Carnival na A/T?

TIA!

[celd15b]

sa carnival po rubber o-ring lang ang gamit. pwede mahila injector pataas medyo matigas nga lang pero nahuhugot then palitan na yung o-ring, wala naman problema pagbabalik and as long as tama ang pagkalagay ng injector bracket (yung parang-y shape) wala ng tatagas na langis, kakagawa ko lang ng sakin, nabali ko nga lang yung dalawang injector bracket sa sobrang hikit ng pagturnilyo ko. cost me 45 petot each for the two injector brackets, and 0 petot for the labor, syempre DIY lang.

Bonkjonks, how did you remove the injectors? yung akin kasi dinala ko na sa isang calibration shop, takot silang piliting tanggalin dahil sa tigas at baka maputol. Is this really a possibility? ang pag-tanggal ba hugot lang, o pinipihit na parang screw?

San ka nakabili ng brackets? kasama ba yung mga turnilyo? medyo na-rounded kasi yung sa akin.

sir leolop yes it is possible to take out the injectors, talagang matigas nga lang and this is due to the thin carbon build up, the rubber o ring and the thin silicon na nakalagay... you have to remove the return hose muna para matwist yung mga injectors... matigas kung sa matigas pero paunti unti naiaangat, wala syang threads pero once na mahugot na merong mga millimiter threadlike lines sa gilid nung injector.. first twist the injector little by little back and forth so that the return hose connectors are at right angle from the original position, para matanggal mo itong connectors na ito.. then pag natanggal mo na twist mo again back and forth yung injector hanggang sa magloose sya and pwede na sya iangat. i used the fuel hose from the injection pump to pull up the injectors while twisting repeatedly, maganda kasi yun kasi may connector yun and pwede gawing panghila... hope this helps..

nway bout my carnival.. 70000km nga and sakto naputulan ng timing belt.. tirik sa roxas blvd.. sus ginoo katilpo......

[bonkjonks]

brackets pala sa goodgear pasay ako nakakuha P45 lang isa... yung sa rounded bolt naman any 12mm bolt pwede naman basta may washer lang...

Hi Guys,

Anybody who can teach me how to increase the ground clearance of the Carnival?

[hinlog]

Hi Peeps,

I was told that the twisted icon indicates that the fuel filter has excess(?) water...

i think the tensioner bearing of our sedona needs to be replaced. i have no experience replacing the automatic tensioner bearing. i'd like to do it myself, so can anyone give me a step by step. thanks.

Hi guys! anyone here who knows how to remove the gunk/oil buildup near the intake manifold? I've read somewhere here na pwedeng matanggal iyon to enhance the breathing capability of the engine. by the way my unit is a 2000 Model J3 LS Local.


inputs would be highly appreciated

You will need to remove the following.

Air Filter Assembly
Turbo Intercooler Assembly
Engine Cover (to expose the IP fuel lines to injectors)
Injection Pump high pressure lines (be careful when removing to avoid damaging the radiator fins)

after removing those, you can now remove the intake manifold

remove the EGR
remove heater connections

the intake manifold have bolts above and below, you just need a mirror to see the bolts below or use your hand to locate them

now you can remove and clean your intake manifold..

remember to bleed the high pressure fuel lines!!

ask someone to crank the engine (do not fully tighten the fittings at the injector!!) when the engine cranks, fuel will leak on the injector fittings, until the engine idles, slowly tighten each fitting until there are no leaks visible..

thank you sir yapoy86
it's harder than i thought pala

thats normal for kia carnival engine may usok talaga at idle.. i dont know the reason why pero yung mga isuzu crosswinds XUVi (yung may low charge turbo at EGR) also has the same "smoke belching" at idle.. same ng kia carnival.. better have your exhaust cleaned regularly.. pwede mo palagyan yan ng pipe sa exhaust para malinis mo ng husto..

also try to use other brand of diesel fuel.. may mga stations kasi selling low quality fuel kaya mausok ang engine

[migs0624]

^ I see. you know any shops who can clean the intake manifold for me?

Hi there,

What does a blinking hold indicators mean on our ride? Thanks in advance.

[celd15b]

gud pm tsikoteers, ask ko lang kung san pwede makakuha ng speed sensor para sa carnival?

tnx....

Hi there,

What does a blinking hold indicators mean on our ride? Thanks in advance.

Hi, blinking hold indicator means something wrong with the valves inside the transmission. It will not or may not shift. I have once for a short while this problem. I called up the mechanics in one casa, they told me try to replace the transmission fluid first ans see if the problems is gone. Or else it need service. Pero my blinking problem was gone after few minutes.

Thanks for your response...

I remember my problem started when I added a US Made (forgot the brand) power steering fluid bought
to Kia in one of the stores near Good Gear as recommended by the stand-by Kia Car mechanic there.

Please bear my ignorance, but does Kia Car work well on certain power steering fluid brand/s only?

Hi guys!

nabenta na ung 01 LS carnival namin. I didn't meet the buyer kasi OFW na ako :D
Hope the owner will be happy with it and not give them headaches.


Dami ko ring adventures and mis-adventures with that van. Carrying 12 persons without breaking a sweat, Blasting countless starex vans on the hiway (no pun intended :P) , Taking it for a scheduled oil change and having the exhaust pipes cleaned, Driving it for hours without feeling tired, and most of all me complaining of body ache after a day of washing and cleaning the red van. Point is, i enjoyed owning the car.

hinlog,

dexron II-E ang specified ps fluid for canivals/sedonas. you will see it in your owners manual.
