  1. Yes It can be repaired but make sure that you get it done from a good workshop.
  2. Can the front axel be repaired if it is deformed? Thanks
  3. Hello, there are a cople of things that needs to be checked 1. Check the tuning for the car 2. Check the fuel pump and fuel pressure 3. Check if your car is overheating 4. Check the timing belt.
  4. My KIA Soul is loosing power when going above 80 but when i am driving under 80 there is no problem.
  5. In my opinion it is best to change them between 70,000 KM to 100,000 KM. As this is a very easily ignored part of the car it is good to spread the word to change them on regular basis.
  6. which GPS is good and compatible . There are a lot of good brand but one of my friends said to buy one with dubai compatibility which i didnt understand and didnt want to give him too much importance Will appreciate any suggestion pls.
  7. When is the changing of sprak plugs required in my 2007 Cerato?
  8. Evaporator needs to be changed as it must be blocked or is not working the condensed water is leaking inside.
  9. it may be some message error try turning off the car, switch it on and open and close the door again if it dosent work then disconnect the battery and reconnect. See if it works
  10. I found water poping below the front passenger leg space area. Do i get worried?
  11. WHY IS IT THAT GETTING THE FUEL TOP UP AND AFTER THE ATTENDANT CLOSED THE FUEL DOOR I STILL GET THE WARNING SIGN THAT THE FUEL DOOR IS OPENED? WILL THIS EVAPORATE THE FUEL ?
  12. no worries, nice car. Welcome to kia dubai community.
  13. Sorry cup, your post wasn't clear. Are you selling this?
  14. Number of reasons would have caused this it could be dirty water, lack of correct coolant and mixing coolant contaminants in the coolant. all of this will cause the corrosion in engine.
  15. What could have caused rusting plus corrosion in the engine block causing it to overheat. Thanks
  16. As only one of the wiper is not working get the following things checked 1)the relay 2)faulty wiper switch (arm) 3)sending power to wrong circuit ! 4) Motor It could me any of these faults.
  17. 302 and 304 runs for coil pack based engine missing, which you changed. Its good. 300 is engine misfire which could be cause of any weak cylinder or butterfly issue. Take it one step at a time. Take a carb cleaner (red and silver one but dont rem the name, you can get it for 15 dhs from any bangali spare part guy) and clean the AFM (Air flow meter) and butterfly and notice. If still engine becomes sputtery then get the engine compression test done to see which engine cylinder is freaking or weak. No other place to doubt as you have changed the coil and spark plugs already.
  18. If its not a sending unit, then gauge itself needs to be changed. Little dirty operation to reach to gauge thru dash.
  19. The left wiper of my car has stopped Working where as the right is working just fine. I will appreciate if the members can help me with the instructions on how to fix my problem. Thank you
  20. If your car is 2.4L 4 Cylinder then the filter is located under the vehicle near the fuel tank.

  22. Kia Maintenance Procedures - Common Additional Services Kia Air Filter Replacement The air filter accumulates dust and debris and should be replaced to protect the engine and maximize fuel economy. For optimal engine performance and longevity, replace every 1 year or 25,000 kms. Kia Automatic Transmission Fluid/Filter Change Automatic transmission fluid becomes heat fatigued and accumulates moisture over time which can lead to automatic transmission damage if not serviced regularly. The filter should be replaced at this time a well. This service should be performed every 2 years or 50,000 kms. Kia Brake Fluid Replacement/Flush Brake fluid accumulates moisture and contamination from component wear over time and unless replaced every 50,000 kms or 2 years, can cause brake system damage. Kia Coolant Replacement/Flush Engine coolant breaks down, gets rusty and becomes contaminated with debris from component wear over time and can cause engine or cooling system damage if not replaced every 2 years or 50,0000 kms. Kia Drive Belt(s) Replacement Drive belts crack and become glazed over time and can squeak or even break. They should be replaced every 70,000 kms. Kia Fuel Filter Change The Fuel Filter becomes restricted as it accumulates debris from filtering the fuel which, can lead to performance problems and early fuel pump failure. It should be replaced at the mileage interval recommended by the vehicle manufacturer. Kia Rotate Tires It is important to rotate the tires from front to rear every 8000-1200 kms so that they wear evenly. This may not be possible on some vehicles because of directional tread design or rim size differences. Kia Spark Plug Replacement Spark Plug terminals wear down over time and can lead to engine misfires and increased exhaust emissions. Replace according to the vehicle manufacturers recommended replacement interval.
