#303 of 605 Re: Kia Sportage 2001 - Transfer Case Exploding [marika1] by lmp4 Mar 18, 2008 (4:42 pm)
Replying to: marika1 (Mar 18, 2008 4:16 pm) My view.comes from too far away , but some independant knowledgeable person would confirm the facts ..: some negligence is involved in the condition of the driving shaft after the $1700 repair. THe shaft just cannot just have snapped from the T-case end AND cause that damage: if it had snapped like that, it would have fallen to the ground, trailing, would have been out of the way and then unable to cause that damage. It did separate from the other end.   If you intent to ask for some compenstion for this damage that should not have occured after a $1700 repair, you must be able to answer to these questions:   - was the whole driving shaft on the ground after the "incident" ? (I'm quite sure it was, but you have to remember it as a fact you verified yourself or somone else can testify)   -had the driving shaft been removed from the differential to perform the repairs in the front ? (implying it can have been installed back with bolts improperly tightened)   Can you take a picture of the OTHER end of the driving shaft and the differential flange that normally connects to the driving shaft ?

Replying to: ort102 (Mar 19, 2008 4:44 pm) First item is to pull the faceplace out.It is clipped in at several points. Gently pry out from the edges, a little at a time, may using a dull table knife, or your fingernails. I did it a few times for the heater controls...I did not touch the radio.
