Hi i want 2 buy a kia carnival and want 2 know whats the most common problem? i have seen a 2004 model lokks very clean but dont know much about these mpv..can anyone give me advise please?

If you go to www.manualdownload.co and search Kia Sedona/Carnival, there is a manual for $8.48 on download. Read it carefully before buying to see it covers your year/model.

I have a Kia Carnival 2005 KVII. I had to contact Kia to get the radio code and give the vin number. Note # you will only get 3 attempts.
My Kia has a Mobis HM3700 and the Code I was given is 1812.

To insert code:
1 look at the front of the Radio you will see a screen, and at the bottom of the Right hand side is a set of channel select buttons.

they look like this
1 2 3
4 5 6

Each button from button number 1 to number 4 will cycle through from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, to 0 each time you press these buttons you will change the number on the screen.

When you have the numbers shown below

Button numbers 1 2 3 4
Numbers showing 1 8 1 2

Than press Number 5 button to accept

hi

how do i fill the gearbox up

If your buying a diesel then no problems as they are easy to repair and a nice motor to drive ,a petrol one in europe ?well in my neck of the woods anyway i have never seen a gas guzler around town (alicante spain)

A good rule of thumb for replacing timing belts is 50,000 miles. Some will say thats to soon but prevention can save you ALOT of money. Think about changing the belt soon.

How do i set the timing in a kia carnival

hi there is a dye you can put in with you gas which enables you to track any leak do this first please rate this answer thanks

The fuel filter is located in the fuel tank, pump removal is required to replace. There is an inspection cover behind the front seats on the floor to gain access to the pump. stupid idea. but whats not stupid about kia.
