    The most powerful and best SUV.. I bought it in February 2013 and it is still with me to this day.. There are no issues .. I love my Sorento and will not sell it forever even if I buy another new car. ❤🚙❤

    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 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.

    My experience: sorento mk2 : turbo replaced twice, transmission failure
    Mk1: EGR - removed after fault, turbo went off balance at 180000km , refurbished and retuned - never been better

    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.

    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.

    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.
