Hi guys,
I just want to get your opinion about my recent observation on my Carens. I noticed that there are times when I smell the fumes, like, smoke coming from other vehicles, stinky surroundings, coming from outside of the car. Sometimes nga I get teary eyed from the fume. Just a while ago, I was driving through B. Serrano and I passed by a particular area where I can smell the garbage dumped on the street. Diba it's not natural for that to happen since the aircon should have a filter or those fumes should be prevented from going inside the car.
Sorry I'm not really familiar with these kind of things that's why I'm consulting you guys. Should I bring my car to the casa already for them to check it?
Thanks!!!

Check this... be sure na naka-ilaw yung A/C recirculation button (lowermost, sa right side), malapit sa cambio. pag hindi naka-ilaw yun, "fresh air" (usok, amoy basura, etc) will enter in your Carens...

Isn't it that it always turns on when you turn on the Aircon? That's what I noticed kasi. Anyway, I'll make sure na naka-on nga sya parati.
Thanks guys.

Pero di rin advisable na dapat naka on lagi yon (yung recirculate button) IMO..pwede siguro i off yun button kahit 1 min then balik ulit sa dati
Lalo na pag long drives, may instance kasi na baka antukin ka sa pagmamaneho... I think I came across this in the manual..
Maamoy mo talaga kasi yung hangin nanggaling sa labas..pero may filter din naman yon kahit papaano kaya hindi lahat ng pollutants eh puwedeng pumasok..

just to share....
nasira aircon ko (at around 15,000 Kms), magnetic clutch daw and it was replaced under warranty. Ok naman na ngayon.
not sure kung prone talaga Carens sa ganun, there was another one at the shop with the same problem

Ok naman na ngayon. not sure kung prone talaga Carens sa ganun, there was another one at the shop with the same problem sir jarx, symptom ba nito ay naka fan mode ang a/c for a long duration of time at saglit lng ang lamig? ganito kasi sakin, logged in 24k+++. Pa early PMS ko na lng on the weekend. TIA

Pero patagal ng patagal yung time na walang lamig. Hanggang sa ayaw na talaga lumamig. Kumusta naman PMS? Nung sa akin na-diagnose nila yung problema without removing any parts.

Palagay ko ganito rin yung sa Carens ko (35,000+km). 2 days ago biglang nawala yung lamig, tapos babalik din.. kahapon ganun din... pero medyo tumatagal yung walang lamig... Will bring my Carens sa casa for sure.. Madali lang ba sir gawin kung pareho diagnosis?

same thing happened sa carens ko (di ko lang matandaan kung ilang km-reading na nun, pero last year pa ata yun). biglang nawalan ng lamig, tapos babalik din, pero after 2 days, di na talaga bumalik yung lamig. i can still remember, this happened to my vios when it's nearing the end of its 3-year warranty...last month na yun ng warranty, tapos biglang nawalan ng lamig. pinalitan yung magnetic-clutch..and I believe yun din ang pinalitan sa carens ko. in short, this can happen to any vehicle, at any time...kaya nga sabi ko, mabuti ng lumabas na lahat ang masisira sa parts, para mapalitan na ng warranty!

Same here. Just brought it to Kia Alabang. It produces a strange sound sa compressor. Parang grinding na may ugong na di maintindihan. Anyone experienced this sound? Nakakairita e.
28k+ mileage ko. They already placed it sa warranty. I hope next week mapagawa na.

Sir vgt, alam ko yung sinasabi mo, yung sinasakyan kong car for hire dito sa china na Kia Rio, ganun din ang aircon, parang may grinding na may ugong na sound, pina check nya daw sa kia service center and di pa din naaayos.
