If anyone has the older style Kia Sorento 2.5 diesel they may know of a problem with the fuel tank delaminating and blocking fuel filter. Tell tale signs is it cuts out when accelerating hard! Simple and cheap fix is keep replacing the fuel filter, mine lasted about 4months inbetween filters. However with advice from a friend who had the same thing done, I took my car into the local dealership and 2 days later got my Sorento back with brand new fuel tank, in tank pump and fuel filters all paid for by Kia UK, all i had to pay for was £10 worth of fuel it would of been thick end of £1000.00 if paying myself.

My one is a 52 plate with 73000 miles and my friends is 06 with over 100,000 miles. Also while there they also done a recall on the rear axle something to do with cleaning and painting some mounting plates i think.

Needless to say I am very very impressed with both Kia for paying for the job and my local garage doing it so quickly. When it comes to replacing either the car of 4x4 we will of course be looking at Kia as our first port of call.
