The Kia Sedona/Carnival Thread [ARCHIVE]

stock lang po pala yung sounds ng sedona ko.

Which leads me to another question: may nakita ako sa malugay na xplode na speakers, mukhang kasya dun sa may door tsaka sa likod sa likod ng bench seat. Nililigawan ko si misis para i-upgrade yung stock speakers to xplode.

She asked me this question: sigurado ka bang mas lalakas ang tunog pag pinalitan mo yan?

Kasi nga naman 2.5k yung dalawang speakers, baka negligible naman ang difference nila sa sound quality?

I'm not looking for an extreme set-up po, gusto ko lang gumanda at lumakas pa ng konti yung tunog.. parang di ako satisfied sa lakas ngayon e.

changing the speaker will not necessarily improve the sound output.

since you mentioned na gusto mo palakasin and pagandahin ang tunog, then I guess the way to go is change of head unit. There are plenty of affordable pioneer (cheapest na branded) models na mp3 and that has tweaking options. Yung stock HU of most vehicles has limited control feature na mostly bass and treble lang ang adjustment. The aftermarket HUs like pioneer also has built-in amp feature that will boost the power output, kaya mas louder and clearer ang sound. In basic sound set-up, normal na headunit muna ang pinapalitan since dito pa lang meron na agad noticeable diff sa sound quality.

in case you are not quite comfortable naman to change this (because of the wiring issues, madami takot kalikutin stock radios ng vehicle), you may want to install an amplifier (v12 will do, mga 2k lang yan) para iboost all 4 speakers of your van. From here, you can already notice ang layo ng sound output compared sa stock.

hope this helps.

Thanks!
I'll look into the amplifier you mentioned. Thanks again!

ATTENTION Kia Carnival Davao Tsikoteers...

Thanks to the generosity of jabr, we now have a copy of the repair/service manual.

PM if you want to copy it.

Tuldok lang yang revo when it comes to the power of the J3 engine. no offense to revo owners.

anu bang mga napahiya sakin dati nung nasamin pa ung carnival. civics, corollas, starex's, pajero's, patrol's, revo's. the list goes on.

most notable is a VW caravelle tdi. Di ko siya na road-kill pero pantay na pantay ang power nilang pareho.

isama mo na rin sa listahan ang FORD F-150... 160-170 kph nakipagkarerahan sa kin dito sa probinsiya namin... halos pantay lang kami... pakiramdam ko parang nakalutang na lang yung gulong ko... hehehe... ADRENALINE RUSH...

BTW, recently, i was able to get hold of a copy of the repair/service manual of our ride. Both gasoline (KV6) & diesel (J3) engine. Willing to share it to anyone interested, just PM me. Im from Muntinlupa - San Pedro, Laguna area.

Sir pwede ba pahingi ng copy?
Mga Sir's newbie here, I have a 02 Sedona LS, recently had the timing belt changed together with some engine valve, may singaw daw kasi, when I got the car back, mukhang nagalaw yung aircon, ayaw na kasi umandar ng aircon sa likod, tapos heater lang yung umaandar. Imilaw din pala yung heater dun sa switch ng rear aircon yung sa may controls ng aircon. Baka meron makatulong sa akin, please leave a message. Thanks

Hi Paolors, first ano ba yon control mo, digital or analog (rotary). Yun aircon mo sa front, is it ok or di rin lumalamig at heater lang rin. If both are not cooling and only fans are running, then possible na leak at walang na freon. If included fans also not running then possible there is broken wire. Hope this can help.

Hi Jabr, I am interested in the J3 manual, is the manual included the electrical wiring diagrams. Paper copy ba yun manual or digital / computer file. Thanks and how can I get a copy.

Thanks Sir, I still have the analog dial, at the bottom of the dial, the red light indicating the heater is active. When you turn the dial for the aircon in the back the heater turns on. I'll post pics later to show you the problem. The aircon in front is still working fine.

Way 22 & Paolors:

Paper copy lang ang hawak ko. Puede naman ninyong paxerox yung manual, taga muntinlupa-san pedro, laguna nga lang ang area ko.
Wala sa manual yung electrical schematics ng rides natin eh, hindi ako nakakuha ng copy nun.
