Hallo Manuela,Ik had een soort gelijk probleem met mijn rio gehad. Dit komt vaker voor met rio,s op leeftijd. Heeft de auto in verleden lang stil gestaan? Hoe veel km gelopen?Die van mij maakte stationair ook veel toeren, en maakte een ratelend geluid als je hem start en er mee reed. Ook brandde het lichtje van de motor check. Dit komt door de lambda sensor, die een verkeert mengsel meet.Veel lange afstanden rijden met de auto en het lampje motorcheck komt niet meer terug.Meestal is de olie ook heel oud, als een rio die kuren krijgt.Bij mij kwam het geratel en hoge toeren door de klepstoters, die vuil waren geworden door lang stil staan. En dus niet of nauwelijks olie krijgen.Het probleem was opgelost door een schoonmaak oplossing bij in de oude olie te doen, en een half uur stationair laten lopen.Daarna nieuwe olie + filter uiteraard in je motor laten doen. 150 a 200 afhankelijk bij welke garage het gebeurt.Tot op heden nooit meer last van hoge toeren, geratel of het motor check lampje.Start altijd netjes en loopt op 800 toeren stationair.MVG Stefan.

Goedendag,Mijn Sorento (2.4i benzine, schakel, bwj 2005) hikt tijdens acceleren heel licht. Dit hikken komt niet uit de tussenbak of dergelijks. De tussenbak staat namelijk al uitgeschakeld door een elektronisch upgrade systeem (superlocker)Ik rij dus rwd. Dit hikken is bij koude als ook bij warme motor. Het is maar wat licht gehik/gestotter. En alleen maar bij acceleren. Gebeurd ook in elke versnelling. Is niet echt hinderlijk, maar wel merkbaar.Alle ideeën zijn uiteraard welkom.Mvg,Marco Lees het hele artikel

Werkt de compressor wel , voel eens aan de dikke aluminium leiding of deze echt koud wordt , deze kun je onder de motorkap vinden aan de kant van de bijrijder.Mocht de leiding niet koud zijn en dus de compressor niet werken en de zekering is heel zou ik het systeem toch eerst laten controleren op aanwezigheid van voldoende koudemiddel.Dat hij gevuld is bij aflevering voorspelt niet veel goeds.Vermoedelijk gewoon een lekke installatie gevuld.Als je garantie hebt , gewoon terug gaan enz.

We at Kia Motors take social responsibility very seriously and are always looking to give back to our customers and their communities all around the globe. One of the ways we are showing our appreciation to loyal fans is the Kia Customer Loyalty Program, which endeavors to tell our fans’ heart-warming stories while inviting them to Korea for a special trip. Kia, together with these customers, the Kia Global Ambassadors, will continue to support their local communities back in their home countries. We would like to share three of our Global Ambassadors’ stories with you. “Picanto is part of my life” – Ms. Astriwindusari Sumarto Mangun (Indonesia) Astriwindusari first became a Kia customer when she bought a Picanto for her work and family. With its easy-to-drive, durable characteristics, her Picanto accompanied her family through special moments on and off road. She joined the ‘Picanto Club Indonesia’ as a premium member and met many other fellow Picanto owners in Indonesia to participate in fun activities together. “Picanto is not just a vehicle, it is an important companion in my life,” said Astriwindusari. “My dream car, Kia Sorento” – Mr. Pedro Messias Gomes (Brazil) When Pedro first saw the Kia Sorento V6 model at the São Paulo Auto Show, he just knew it was the car for him and had to order one from the dealership. He also had a dream of owning a special customized car with a customized plate sporting his name, Pedro Gomes. Interestingly enough, there was a town called ‘Pedro Gomes’ in Mato Grosso do Sul in Southern Brazil. After he got his Sorento, Pedro started an exciting road trip to the town to get his special license plate. “Putting on a number plate named after me was truly a memorable moment,” Pedro reminisced. “The car I dreamt about finally became a reality.” “Giving hope to children with Kia” – Mr. Asher Winsteen (Israel) Asher and his family first became Kia customers back in 1995 with the Sephia. They have been our loyal customers ever since and now own the Kia Cerato, Picanto and cee’d. Asher is an engineer but also has a special talent for writing poems and children’s books. He has been donating profits from his book sales to multiple child health associations. Talcar Corp., the official Kia distributor in Israel, is supporting his passion for helping children who suffer from illness by purchasing his latest books and distributing them in children’s hospitals. “I would like to help revive hopes and dreams in children’s eyes,” remarked Asher. “And I appreciate that my favorite brand, Kia, is able to support my passion and make a meaningful contribution.” Lees hele artikel

hallo. Ik heb 3 weken geleden een kia rio particulier gekocht. 2 dagen na aankoop begon het lampje te branden van de motorcheck deze branden na een tijdje te rijden niet meer. Nu begin hij echter als hij smorgens gestart word uit te vallen. Hij loopt heel snel na 2500 touren en dan val hij uit, als ik even gas geef is het probleem verholpen. Als ik hem start daar na loop hij netjes stationer en met een mooie aantal touren. Is er iemand wie weet wat het kan zijn? Mijn opa heeft altijd een eigen gerage gehad en hoorde/zag zo op het oog niks geks maar dan heeft hij natuurlijk al even gedraaid. Als er tips zijn kan hij het helemaal na kijken. Alvast bedankt.MvgManuela Lees het hele artikel

Now available in most markets, the 3rd generation Sorento has been well received by customers and auto communities worldwide and has already won several major awards including the Red Dot design award, iF design award and the highest five-star crash safety rating by Euro NCAP. Originally developed as Kia’s first crossover SUV model, the first generation Sorento exploded onto the automotive scene in 2002. Before we walk down memory lane and see how it has evolved into an ideal SUV for today’s motorists, let’s take a look at the Sorento of yesterday and today. 1st generation Sorento: The birth of a new urban SUV In 2002, the first generation Sorento was developed as the bigger brother to the Sportage, a successful pioneer of the compact SUV market. Kia carefully researched the crossover SUV market and decided to make its body larger while ensuring a high level of comfort and offering a rear-wheel drive drivetrain. Suitable for city life, it was also equipped with advanced convenience features. Sorento received many favorable reviews, as it delivered a smooth sedan-like driving experience while offering the powerful performance of an SUV. Two powertrain options, a 2.5 WGT diesel engine and 3.5 V6 gasoline engine were offered with a four-wheel drive option. Thanks to its low noise and vibration, many drivers opted for the diesel engine model. 2nd generation Sorento: Tougher yet more handsome The second generation Sorento was introduced at the Seoul Motor Show in 2009. The new model had a monocoque body and front-wheel drive system, making the body lighter and the interior more spacious compared to the previous generation. The R2.2 diesel engine with a rated maximum power output of 200 horsepower and maximum torque of 44.5 kgf∙m gave the Sorento compelling performance. Noticeably, it was the first Sorento model to be designed under the guidance of world-renowned Peter Schreyer, Kia’s president and chief design officer. With its improved performance and sleek design, the second generation Sorento was a massive hit, especially in the U.S. market where it achieved annual sales of over 100,000 units, dominating the mid-sized crossover CUV market. A facelift model was also launched in 2012. The all-new Sorento: The return of the king, the future of CUVs The much anticipated debut of the third generation Sorento came in 2014. It manifests the design identity of Kia Motors, especially with a tiger-nose shaped front grille and bold character lines. The latest Sorento is also equipped with advanced technological features including an active hood for improved protection, a smart tailgate that opens automatically when the driver approaches the car, and an Around-View Monitoring (AVM) system which gives a 360 degree view. The use of ultra high-strength steel was increased to 53 percent and the use of specialty adhesion technology made for a significantly stronger and safer vehicle body. Depending on market, Kia offers numerous engine choices for the all-new model, including a 2.4-liter gasoline direct injection (GDI) unit and 2.0 and 2.2-liter diesel common rail direct injection (CRDI) units. So that is how Kia Sorento evolved and surprised each time it transformed. Are you a Sorento owner who wants to share why you love it? Feel free to leave us a comment and find out more about Kia’s newest CUV model below! ▶ Kia insiders explain why the all-new Sorento is #SoIDEAL ▶ Video: All you need to know about the all-new Kia Sorento Lees hele artikel
