I have a leak in my rack and pinion seal that is seaping through my tie rod boot. Is it possible to just replace the seal, or do I have to replace the entire rack?

I HAD BOUGHT A BRAND NEW KIA SORENTO (MANUAL TRANSMISSION) 2007 MODEL.- DIESEL. I HAVE A PROBLEM ON THE TRANSMISSION SINCE I HAVE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN I ENGAGE IN THE FIRST GEAR AND RAISE THE CLUTCH, THE VEHICLE SHOOTS OFF EVEN WITHOUT PRESSING ON THE ACCELARATOR UPTO A POINT THAT I HAVE TO PUT ON THE BRAKES INORDER TO REDUCE THE SPEED. I ALSO HAVE TO ADJUST BETWEEN THE BRAKES AND THE CLUTCH WHEN I AM IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. I FEEL THAT THERE IS A MANUFACTURERS FAULT IN THE DESIGN AND THAT IS PROBABLY WHY THEY WOULD HAVE DISCONTINUED. IS THERE ANYONE THAT HAS A SIMILAR PROBLEM AND THE REMEDY FOR THIS.

| Sometimes they won't turn off immediately when I push the lever to where it's supposed to be at "stop". Sometimes when they are on delay they wipe 6-8 times, then delay; not the intermittant delay that is pre-set...they have a mind of their own. It's become quite comical, but still annoying. ok, the vehicle has over 90K miles, and is still going strong (thank the Lord! and my dilligent attention to service) Any suggestions on the gremlins in the wipers? | |

Has anyone found out EXACTLY where the stereo equalizer is in the Sorentos? Mine's a 2004. I had mine do the typical...eat 6 cd's facilitating a complete stereo replacement.  BUT the speakers would not work with the new stereo, a year later I am told there is an equalizer under one of the seats but you can't see/locate it to power it up so the speakers will work. Any other suggestions?? I need to get this taken care of soon as I want to trade it in.

Hello, I would like to ask your opinion about a small problem i encounter with my kia sorento.It is a model of 2003, 70000 miles on it (generally not very happy with it)/ When i start up the engineat idle or until 2000 rpm i hear a "squeaking noise" which probably comes from the engine compartment.the noise is not very intense, and completely dissapears at higher rpm.kia people looked at the belts but could not do much with it...the noise doesnt create much problems neither affects the car in some way..however having readpossible causes i am getting worried. anybody had any similar experience? many thanks in advance

I have a 2005 EX 4x4 & have a few instances of power loss. My guess is the fuel filter needs to be changed but I need to know the location. I don't like paying the dealership prices & the Purrfect Auto that I want to go to says there isn't one except for in the fuel pump. The maintenance manual states one needs to be changed at 60K so I know there is one. Just WHERE IS IT?
