The Kia Sedona/Carnival Thread [ARCHIVE]

[bisoy]

by the way, thanks to Daco Tyan for his advise.

i know i read somewhere in this thread re regular maintenance ng particular part para hindi maging mausok ang mga carnival. what part was this? intake manifold? intercooler? if it is the intake manifold, is it the whole thing or just the squarish thing lang? this is supposedly the pre heat stage or something?

the problem still persisted. i followed Daco Tyan's advise...... guess what we found out....

Sir, anong part yan? Could you post a link to a larger picture so we can better see what the damage is? TY.

[bisoy]

pasyensya na boss. it was taken from a phone cam kasi kaya hanggang dun nalang yun.

the part is actually the crankshaft pulley. there is a rubber bushing inbetween the outer and the inner part of the pulley. nag crack na yung rubber due to wear and tear. so lumalabas na nag sli-slide na sya kaya yung ikot nya hindi na yung tamang ikot kaya under drive ang mga alternator (which drives the vacuum of the brakes), power steering and water pump. hope this helps.

bisoy,

Thanks for the explanation. It's something useful to know in case similar symptoms ever show up in our own Carnivals.

thanks to daco tyan for the heads up. without his advise, baka medyo tumagal pa ang carnival ko sa pag troubleshooting.

i just want to update you guys on my carnival pala......

my crankshaft pulley has not arrived yet so i used the original pulley with a fabricated ring that replaced the rubber/plastic damper. ok naman lahat. all the symptoms went away. mechanic told me that i might notice more vibrations as i start up or turn my engine off because nawala na yung rubber/plastic damper sa pulley. sa observation ko, ok lang naman. i might use this fabricated steel damper (all steel crankshaft pulley) for a while. any risks doing this? machine shop cost me P900 only. the orig crankshaft pulley i bought cost me P2,450. sorry no pics on the fabricated steel damper coz i was unable to go to the shop yesterday as they were installing it.

thanks for looking.

Bisoy, your welcome.

Like you, I'm thankful that this thread exists and has helped me a lot.

BTW, welding the two parts of the pulley would theoretically increase vibrations felt from the engine.

thanks for letting me know jay c. ill keep u in mind and im saving your number for future reference.

by the way, i read somewhere in this thread na may nililinis na part para hindi masyadong mausok ang carnival natin. said part was accumulating gunk daw. what is this part again? sorry pero nahihirapan akong hanapin yung post na yun sa thread na to. was it the intercooler? intake manifold? or if someone can point the part, i would be thankful to you. thanks.

[jcastillo932]

Im not sure ha, pero pag ganyan catalytic converter is isang cause din, just like in my VW Caravelle. May catalytic converter ba carnival?

[bisoy]

parang wala ang mga carnival but im sure it wasnt the catalytic conveter. i remember it has something to do with the intake. this was confirmed by the local kia casa service manager and i had to buy around 3 cans of carb cleaner for him to clean the gunk. now that i have a trusted mechanic na, i want him to perform my regular maintenance nalang para mas mura. anyone remembers what part needs to be cleaned of the gunk? thanks
