Two heater = lots of water to heat.
 
I had something similar to this thread, i developed a rumble from the front all very odd just started during a journey. Checked front tyres and found a lump off really sticky foam practically welded on. I had to use a scraper to remove. Problem solved.

Hi guys
 
I had the old sorento mk1 had loads of probs with it, had to have a new short engine due to lower crank pully shearing off.
So put it in part ex for a 2010 santa fe with the new 2.2 196bhp engine which i think is the same as in the new sorento, the santa fe was great untill
as i was reversing up my drive the smell from the clutch was terrible i drove it in the snow last year and had to go up a small hill when the wheels span again the smell was bad so i went and had a look on the sf forum to see if anyone else was having the same problem there were loads all saying about clutch burn when reversing, towing , driving in the snow etc so it seems to be a common fault to kia and hyundai.

I would look for the speed sensor as effort to turn steering is speed dependant.I would guess you will find this on the rear axle,but not had the problem i have never needed to locate it .I would go for rear as normal drive is on there when in 2 wheel drive.]]> Sun, 05 Feb 2012 09:53:53 +0000 http://www.kiaownersclub.co.uk/forum/speedo_topic6208.html 2005 - 2010 : Titan Radio removal http://www.kiaownersclub.co.uk/forum/titan-radio-removal_topic6245_post35840.html#35840 Author: Blow-in

Could be the immobiliser antenna thats not picking up the chip in key. I had this problem on my Rio CRDI and it was replaced under warranty and all was well after that. Not an expensive part. The fault can be read by a code reader and it doesn't always throw the engine management light on. ]]> Sun, 05 Feb 2012 09:08:49 +0000 http://www.kiaownersclub.co.uk/forum/starting-problems_topic5856.html Sorento : Oils http://www.kiaownersclub.co.uk/forum/oils_topic6238_post35838.html#35838 Author: oldbrook

I agree Philip, if we are going to be paying £16 odd grand for a Venga 3, then another £80 added on by the price of mudflaps isnt going to make a huge difference to the price of the car.

Fair play to you Steve!  doing any kind of maintenance on a day like today is the act of a madman or a fanatic.
