...Now, wouldn't sell my ride, as I have to "bawi" what I have spent on repairs. Plus, the resale value of our ride is really bad now.

I know how you feel bro. In the past few months I have replaced a crankshaft pulley and an alternator. When I reach 210,000-km perhaps by June, I'll be replacing my timing belt again. Isasabay ko na yung oil pump chain and related parts para preventive maintenance.

I am resigned to the fact that we will get very little if we sell our van now, so we might just decide to trade it in (at a big loss) at the dealership where we will get our next vehicle, perhaps in 2010.

Still, I am pleased that my Carnival was able to log 200,000-km without any major engine trouble.

...Minsan pag long drive ako tapos pinatay ko agad ung makina ayaw na niya mag-start. Pag pinahinga mo for mga 30 mins to 1 hour 1 click naman siya. The only way to avoid this is kapag binomba ko ng binomba ung gas bago ko patayin ung makina...

Have you had your fuel pump and fuel lines checked?

Sorry sir, I do not know of any good electricians in Metro Manila. Since I live in the province, most of the repairs on my unit have been done here.

Hi Peeps,

Happy New Year to all; just want to know if anybody already encountered this problem on their parking brake indicator that lit up everytime you press the brake. Is it possible to share what needs to be look into our Kia Car?

Also, how can I remove the fog light on my Kia Car 2001? The mechanic complained that he still needs to bring down the cover under our Kia Car just to remove it, is that true? If not, can you share how to do it? Lastly, Do you know if our fog light is available in any surplus store?

Thanks in advance:-)

check your brake fluid reservoir, it also indicates you're low in fluid..

fog lights can be removed at the back of the bumper so you the mechanic needs to remove the cover to access the fog lights

this is not a good way to start the new year! i've been trying to sell my carnival last year pero walang buyer, parang they're all waiting for a low price. eto ang clincher, after having an oil change last dec. 31 and after a week of driving... my van conked out in slex... and now according to my mechanic kailangan ibaba yun engine! (

i'm sharing my experience so you guys can anticipate and check this in your van. after the last oil change, i heard a weezing sound when i accelerate, and parang naging hirap yun engine to accelerate. i thought it was just the pesky aircon idle bearing (which i can't find here in las pinas area)...

then last friday, ayun pa uwi from makati, the engine lost its power then a louder weezing sound, and the van seems to gasp for air, with two poofing sound... then i heard something like one of the belts breaking... and it died.

initial findings from my mechanic is that, it's really gasping for air, and the lubrication is not enough (maybe it's eating oil already)...

regular oil change pa'to ng lagay na'to. every 3 months or 5000 km...

ayun kaya d ko na rin mabebenta yun van ng good price or maybe trade it in next year (as somebody suggested here)...

any good idea on how much would and engine overhaul cost?

kailangan ko din pala ng sun visor para sa driver side.

Hi Bro,

Oks ang analysis mo, I just added brake fluid (level was near Minimum)and the problem on the light indicator was gone...Maraming salamat!!!

i change mine by removing the headlight first. i find it more convenient to access the fog light from the top

Cyann 21,

Nakabili ako two years ago ng replacement sun visor for my carnival at goodgear. 500 php lang yata ang bili ko, 1 pair na yun
