The Kia Sedona/Carnival Thread [ARCHIVE]

bisoy,
stock yung 215 na tires. re fuel filter, ang advise nga sakin every 10k yung fuel filter and every 20k yung priming pump mismo (pati ba tlaga ito?!)
i also hear rattles pero pakiramdam ko hindi sa sliding door, sa pole mismo (the one between the sliding and front door) parang yung mga plastics ang may rattle. bubuksan ko nga minsan para ma check..bka may lumuwag lang.

leolop,
ang swerte mo sir! murang mura...
i agree sa customer's lounge ng e.rod wheel's! maganda kesa sa iba.

sir diesoline, i tried the refill of shocks sa zee (if i recall correctly ikaw yung nagpunta din dun), mukhang ok naman pero parang pakiramdam ko mejo stiff pa. its good pag cornering and braking. pero parang rough sa potholes. im still experimenting with different tire pressures (32 na ngayon from 37), may improvement naman with the lower pressure tires. pero might have it adjusted next week depending on my findings kasi mag settle pa daw yung nitro charge nila. the pressure they placed was 90 psi sa harap and 80psi sa rr shocks. mas malaki pala yung shocks sa harap.

anybody who has an idea of the correct pressure for the shock absorbers for this kind of vehicle?

re blinking glow plug indic, I found a busted fuse sa glow plug relay/fuse box(a smaller box sa engine din). this might be it...kaso wala sa mga local shops yung type of fuse na ganun, 60A yellow colored plug in type lang pero mahaba parang maliit na chocnut hehe...will visit wheels to get one. pero surprisingly for me, 2 lang ang glow plugs nito? 2 lang ang relay at 2 lang ang fuse, di ba dapat 4 ang plugs?? is it be 2 glowplugs sa isang relay?
AND kahit nakabunot na yung isang fuse, hindi hardstarting. one click pa rin. :?? any expert advise mga sir, di ko kasi alam bakit ganun.

mikey177, nice meeting you! next time, kape-kape naman...

Same here, diesoline. Sige, magkape tayo pag nagkasalubong tayo ulit. Hope you didn't have a difficult climb to Baguio that afternoon. It started to rain a bit hard right after you left Urdaneta

leolop:: Pasensya na sir at hindi ko na nakuhanan ang pics ng makina, tinoxic ako ng anak ko sa assignment nya. Ang lupit magbigay ng assignment ang mga grade school ngayon, kailangan talaga may computer at Internet connection ka sa bahay.

Anyway, I hope you were able to observe how the casa guy got the engine number so you can do it by yourself next time.

bisoy:: Yep, same size yung Dunlop 215 70R/15 tires sa stock tires ng Carnival.

Sorry guys for the delay pero eto na ang request ninyo for the manual. The manual contains 320 pages more or less.

Option 1: Scan and send out via email. Scanner can only handle one page at a time, di kaya isang scan sa 2 pages. Each page averages around 110kb. So 320 pages is 35,200kb. Kaya? Or put in a CD and mail it out to those who want?

Option 2: Photocopy. Mas mahal yata itong option. Assuming piso per page, 320 pesos, plus freight.

The manual is for the park 2 or sedona models. The manual's copyright is dated 2002.

Aside from the main manual, there is a separate manual for the built in car audio system. Advise if anyone of you also want this.

mikey, bukas ko dadalhin sa casa. magdadala ako ng 10 stencil form. pinasabay ko na rin paglinis ng intake manifold. P715, ouch. nga lang di ko makikita paano gawin dahil sa ibang area ng wheels auto mall ginagawa ang mga sasasakyan tsaka iiwan ko dahil palalamigin pa nila muna ang makina. and i know exactly how you mean sa mga assignment ng mga bata ngayon.

altec, baka pwede yung scan and padala mo via email in parts. i think kaya ng yahoo upto 10 meg attachement. dsl naman ako kaya oks lang.

trendy, magkano inabot sa zee at ano yung naging scope ng work?

[benchph1]

hello carnival peeps. active na active ang thread natin ngayon ah..dati hinuhukay ko pa talaga ito :D

ma-try nga sa susunod ang wheels.

na-try ko na rin sa city ko magpa nitro refill kay zee. medyo stiff nga. pero pwede mong pabawasan ng hanggang 6 psi para medyo gumanda ang ride.

[ericmm]

altec, baka puwede nga maka-hingi rin ng kopya baka nga puwede through email or burn sa cd. Di ko kase maintindihan yung manual ko eh - pati radio manual is in korean.

[leolop]

hinahanap ko yung insurance adjuster na binanggit earlier in the thread, wala akong nakita fitting the description. something to come back for...

went to wheels this am. saw her and... BAKIT AKO KUMUHA NG INSURANCE SA IBA, BAKEEEEEET??!!!! hehehe.

[diesoline]

trendy08: yup i did go to zee's but the work they did on my carnival was to refill polymer on both ball bearings and replace all the bushings on the torsion bars.

altec: ako cd, ha? vibe dialup lang sa amin. pero pick-up ko copy ko sa cebu!

mikey177: the fuse box assignments photos you posted are really helpful! at last, baka makikita ko na kung bakit di gumagana yung aux fan ko behind the radiator. punta ako electrician tomorrow. re the baguio climb, it rained along the way but my new dunlops didn't mind it. i have been up and down kennon road so many times that i make yabang to my former classmates that i can even traverse it in reverse!

leolop: direct link? P378,000! you are one lucky dog!

ericmm: my unit is black too. baiskee is a tsikoteer. got the tires * 3100 each but he delivered it to the victory liner station for shipment to baguio. with ben, you get free balancing. btw, i have logged 2000kms na on my tires and i haven't had them balanced yet. i plan to have them balanced at tire boy tomorrow. try ko na rin yung nitrogen tire filling nila.

benchph1: galing no? parating nasa first page ng diesel forum itong thread ngayon. kudos to our newer carnival peeps!

guys, WALANG SIRA ANG INJECTION PUMP KO!!!! Wheewwww!!! After I decided to refuel from a shell gas station without biodiesel, after around 60kms, I noticed nawala ang fuel knock. After 200kms, every day I checked, nawala. So I brought it to Kia, and the service advisor confirms nawala ang fuel knock. Thus, the sira is not the pump, kasi kung may dumi siya, the problem would persist. Nalito ako kung saan ang problema. Nagduda ako baka fuel knock due to low cetane rating. If I assume coco methy esther is 70 cetane, then it could mean the diesel! With this theory in mind, I checked the different suppliers that delivered diesel to us, crosschecked it against when I started to have problems with my unit and my other delivery trucks, and seems that there is a diesel supplier who is selling me lousy diesel. I talked with a former industrial account shell fuel supplier, and he confirms there is an industrial grade, and an automotive grade. Shipping lines want industrial grade, mas hiyang daw ang makina nila sa industrial grade. But industrial has less or no additives, 5-7% or cetane points (I forgot which one he meant) lower cetane rating, and mas malapot daw ang diesel ng industrial! So I went to my motorpool and met my mechanics. They also noticed that malapot daw ang diesel natin. They even went on and showed me a vic fuel filter from a canter, 2 months old, ang dumi na ng filter.

Guys, dahil dito, di ako naka office. Will give my manual to the secretary for scanning on Monday. Will confirm the total kb or mb na kakainin niya, up to you guys if you want it via email, or CD copy. Diesoline, kukunin mo dito sa Cebu? Sure!!! (seryoso ka? Pupunta ka talaga sa Cebu?) Ilang case ng beer (or wine) ang ihanda ko at ilang cebu lechon ang i-order ko? Tama na ang 2 lechon sa iyo?
