My wife has a 2003 Sedona which, I am starting to spend more and more time working on these days. Currently at 103,000 miles, replaced timing belt/water pump at approx 80,000 miles-AND WHILE WE WERE ON VACATION!!
Motor keeps running hot, at least by the temp gauge on the dash, but it has yet to push any water out, or cut off. A/C only blows cold if she gets on the interstate or up to speed, at which time the temp gauge drops and A/C blows cold again. At idle, temp pegs out quickly, and A/C starts blowing hot again. I have check the obvious such as fuses, and installed a new thermostat and flushed the radiator and put in new coolant/water mix. Sound like a water pump to anyone? Relay? By the time I finish this repair, I will have logged enough hours to qualify as a Kia Certified Mechanic. Will not buy another one.
