The Kia Sedona/Carnival Thread [ARCHIVE]

Thanks sir benchph1!

You're right, there's a very small leak on the powersteering fluid hose. Naka-schedule na nga for replacement with kia alabang, sabi ko sa kanila sabay ko na din sa 45k na maintenance nya.

Whew. What a relief. I was praying it wasn't an oil pump chain problem.

Badtrip, sabay-sabay ang problems. Kahapon when I entered my Sedona, hinila ko yung door knob na sliding to put in my bag, naputol yung parang screw na naghohold sa side na malapit sa driver's door, yung pivot na part para mahila yung lock. Waaaah! To fix this, do I have to replace the whole assembly? Gusto ko na lang sang lagyan ng metal from one of my son's toys tapos superglue ko e... kaya lang di ako marunong magbukas nung door panel.

praetor,

i cant imagine what you talking about. care to post a pic?

bench, it's the pivot pin that the handle attaches to.

praetor, since you're going to the casa anyway, have them do it na. it's relatively simple for them to install that pin.

my passengers have already broken the pivot pins on both of my sliding doors before. i had one done by a banaue boy who fabbed up a pin with wire (alambre, the stiff type). when the other pivot pin was damaged, i had a repair shop in baguio do it. no parts bought on both occasions, labor charges only.

Hi to everyone:

My front and rear shock absorber needs to be replaced. Any recommendation from the experts? Please include the price estimate of the recommended shocks. Mine is a Carnival 2000 model. Thanks.

Gud PM carnival peeps

Btw, has anyone experienced a grinding sound during start-up but also immediately disappears? Eto na kaya yung oil pump chain problem na common sa carnival? mine is 01 LS A/T btw.

Mine is manual tranny. I experienced sometimes that when I start my unit, especially during early morning, I could hear grinding sound but when I step on the clutch it disappears. I think my case is different kasi yung suspect mo ay nandoon sa oil pump chain.

Hi, I'm a newbie in this forum. Can anybody recommend a shop or mechanic that can clean my intake manifold? I was reading the earlier threads about the gunk build-up in the manifold and I did see it. Unfortunately, I just removed what I can reach and from what I can see, there is still a lot inside. BTW, I live in Pasig and owned a 2001 Carnival. Thanks.

Could just be an idler bearing kung "whining" noise. Kung naririnig mo ito habang lumiliko, Baka may leak ka sa power steering.

may leak ang power steering mo ... palitan mo na ang mga pressurized hose mo try mo hawakan baka sobrang tigas na mura lang naman un...

huh? are you referring to me bro?

my post is for praetor.

may bad experience ako sa mga gumagawa ng power steering hose sa tabi-tabi, sinubukan ko lang once. well to make it simple di nila na solve ang leak sa p/s system ng carnival ko dati.

wala namang kinalaman ang matigas na rubber hose sa leak, IMHO. kasi sa crimping usually nagkakaron ng tagas.
