I've driven my Sorento now for about 2 years, sure some really small problems but when it come to the pros, that 4x4 with low range have saved other people multiple times. I have never gotten stuck and i've been draging other cars around like nothing in really bad conditions

Just hit 130k, only issues are that the alternator went out around 70k, the transmission went into limp mode once around 95k necessitating a transmission fluid change, and the rear door actuators died around 109k miles and I'll have to rip out the door handles so I can open those doors and replace them. What didn't seem to be mentioned in the video are that the engine chain uses plastic guides that can disintegrate if the oil isn't changed, and some vehicles had issues with their rear driveshafts. Changing the oil and crawling under and trying to jig the RDS with your hand are easy to do though. Besides those, changing the oil regularly and running purple fuel injector cleaner and seems to working well.

I bought a brand new 2009 Kia Sorento 2.5 CRDI back in 2009 and after 15 years still going strong. Very satisfied with my Sorento. Presently it only has 125,000 kilometers.

I bought one of them in 2017, used with a 3.8-liter petrol engine, and it is a powerful car, but the maintenance of the engine is somewhat complicated. For example, when you replace the spark plugs, you need to open parts of the engine, in addition to the relatively high fuel consumption.

Here in the US, the most common point of failure is the rear diff...for the 1.5 gen (07-09). It must be made of powdered metal.

@box3976 Жыл бұрын

and the rear end needs to be raised 8 inches higher for proper fluid level...

Hello, I have a problem with a Kia Sorento 2.5crdi 140 hp with a manual transmission, suddenly the two green lights for blocking and 4WD came on and now nothing works from the button and the blocking, I tried with another button and computer for the distribution and relay for the front differential nothing happens, I try the transmission motor through the socket, it works immediately, it engages the front cardan, and this happened when it was driven on the highway without turning on from the button, the lights came on and since then nothing works, but before everything worked, if anyone can help me i would be very grateful.

Found out the hard (expensive) way, in the 2.5L CrDi version, you need to replace the copper injector washers every 40,000km. If you don't soot can get into the oil, forming a sludge that will block the oil pickup in the sump and eventually lead to spun bearings or broken con rods etc. Two excellent supporting mods if you plan to run these offroad are 1. an audible temperature alarm not just a light or gauge, and an oil pressure gauge to make sure oil is flowing freely. Do that before you do a two inch lift. trust me.

these cars are over 20 Y.O now. Weak points: rust. they get eaten up by rust. The rear side of the car is what is going to die on you. Engines are rough but robust. 3.3 V6 took the place of 3.5V5. much more powerful, less thirsty, but aging badly due to direct injection. Engine failure is common.

I have an '05 Sorento LX 35.L 2wd auto. This thing has been a nightmare. I know some folks who had to have engines replaced a few times. The ECM failed, the Etac failed twice, the starter, alternator, heater core of course plugs, wires and coils and the wires are major nightmare to route properly. The rear roof light went out a few years and can not locate the so called "diode". The clock has died. Working on one is the most irritating nightmare you can think of. These things are not meant to last at all.

Mine now has 200 000 miles on it. It's been quite reliable for me considering the high mileage. Here in Finland many of these have over 250k miles on them, so I would't say that they don't last.

my current one in an 08 2.5L CrDi turbo part time 4x4 with low range. I just gave an engine rebuild for it's 333,000km birthday. I bought it at 290,000 and now I know exactly what needs to be changed and when. Didn't even know you could get the first gen as a 2wd.
