I have recently become concerned with the Clutch action on my Sorento 2.5 CRD.
At 2500 miles I have begun to notice a Noise when declutching to change up a gear. At first I thought it was an over-run noise from the Turbo but I can reproduce the noise by coasting in neutral, holding the revs at 2000 rpm and depressing the Clutch Pedal. The "feel" through the Clutch Pedal also feels slightly rough.
Any Advice Appreciated.
Thanks , our gee.
I have recently seen a Kia UK Tech. Bulletin that deals with your issue. The solution is to install a dual mass flywheel and modified clutch unit. This applies to cars prior to Dec 04. I have some noises from my Dec 04 Sorento. I am going to wait until the Service time then deal with this because the car is running superbly at the moment.
