Gas Gauge goes up and down

This has been happening for about six months, but not all the time. Sometimes while driving, or idling, the gas gauge will go down to E, the light will come on, then it eventually goes back up to where it should be. In several instances I just filled up a day or two before, so I know there is enough in the tank. A few times it happened when it could have been empty (though I doubt, that empty as I have a regular schedule of fillups for the most part)
Any thoughts on what this might be? I don't know if there is a float gauge in the tank, or if it could be the fuel pump? BTW 2003 sorento..106K miles or so.
Thanks

Can you please provide more information around the foam sound installation? Did the Kia Dealer do this or elsewhere? I'd be interested at having this done as I cannot stand the noise during acceleration!

you referring to the timing belt..(which is internal...you wouldnt see it) or the surpentine belts..Im thinking the later.....dont know the schedule maintenance on the 04.....my 03 sorie.....required the timing belt to be replaced at 60k to maintain the warranty...... I had a engine light come on on first Sorie..that was never corrected and finally traded it back to the dealer as a lemon......it was new with 120 miles on it however....

I recently had the same problem with my 2006 Sorento. The dealer "packed" the driveshaft, or the u-joint, and the problem has disappeared. Might have your dealer check it out.

The problem come from using different type of brake pads it was for Hyundai. because the car imported from USA and now it is in UAE and the brake pads are not available for Kia Sorento. Finally I used brake pads of Kia Operas which is solved the problem

My apologies for the late reply. The foam insulation was done at the dealers. It's still working as advertised.

Hi! I was wondering if anybody could tell me how difficult it would be to install a new transfer case in a 2004 sorento. I am mechanically inclined although not a mechanic. Thanks
