The Kia Sedona/Carnival Thread [ARCHIVE]

gats,

Is your Sedona a gas or diesel variant, and is it an M/T or A/T.

I have a 2002 diesel with a manual transmission, and I get an average of 10 km/li (mostly highway driving, often with aggressive overtaking; average speed 80 kph). HTH.

Just wondering where this OVAL covering leads to once opened? :question:


Baka pwede dito i-adjust ung shifter problem ko.....

Jordan, that's the emergency shift-lock release in case something jams the foot brake-shifter release link.

Guys, I was browsing through our thread as I was planning to buy a roof carrier to attach to the roof rack as I plan to travel to Baguio in March eh kulang ang space for luggage and stuff sa likod. Is the roof carrier adviceable especially for long trips? Has anyone installed one? If so, how is it and how much?

Help naman diyan. TIA

Hello! My brother-in-law's Carnival LS has this problem and you might have an idea what is causing it. When he shuts-off the engine, and it takes about an hour before he could re-start it again. The battery is quite new. What could be causing it? Thanks in advance.

ericmm::: I'll try to ask the doctor friend of my wife where he got his roof carrier installed.

gats::: mas mababa yata yung mileage ng A/T, lalo na kung puro stop and go city driving lang. Just maintain a clean air filter and have your PMS done on time; these may improve your fuel mileage.

Hayward::: Is your brother-in-law's Carnival a diesel or a V6 gas model? Has he had a mechanic go over it?

Ano ang nangyayari pag sinubukan nyang i-start yung van bago mag isang oras? Does it crank but fail to start, or is there no reaction at all when he turns the key?

Ericmm,

The rack on top is actually a carrier so you really don't have to install another one, pabigat lang yun aside from dagdag gastos. Just evenly distribute your stuff on top and tie it down OK na yan, I do that everytime I go home to Baguio with my family. I think there is also a load limit (ganun din pag nilagyan mo ng roof rack) but vacation baggage is just OK, just make sure to line the roof with cartons or some other thing to prevent scratches.

Tapos pag sinita ka ng pulis jung may permit yung roof rack, sabihin mo kasama na yun sa pagbili kaya di na kailangan.

Mikey177,
Looking forward for the feedback from your findings.

Salonika,
Thought of doing that kaso I just wanted to make sure that the stuff on top is secure but then again you are right, just make sure that they are tied down tight and proper. Really thought of having the carrier para secure yung gamit and the roof is free from damage.

Did it ever happen na sinita ka ng police sa NLE or SLEX?

Daco Tyan -- Thanks for the info.

ericmm -- Here are pictures of the roof rack in our Carnival...

Sir mikey177: The Carnival is a Diesel model. Pag less than an hour nya pina-start, ayaw mag-crank ang engine nya kaya he lets it cool down bago mapaandar uli.
