hi guys, test driven a 3 yrs used forte 2.0 today. when idle at gear 1, the steering got vibration.
if put on neutral gear, less vibration, but still can feel.

is this normal?
*
Possible reasons for the above might be:
1) Dirty/fouled spark plug(s) that need cleaning/replacing. (Broken and/or worn valve stem seals can cause the respective spark plugs to foul).
2) Burnt valve(s)...(from age, too high of a combustion temperature, inaccurate timing, or using unleaded in an older auto that requires leaded gasoline)
3) Blown head gasket. (Coolant entering cylinder(s) can cause non-combustion at low RPM, and not at higher RPM or non-combustion is not noticeable at higher RPM)
4) Cracked cylinder head. (Missing caused by same process as in #3 above except through passage of the head crack).
5) Cracked piston. (More unlikely).

Having some trouble with my steering wheel. KIA Forte 2.0SX 2010 with the motor assisted power steering.

Problem is there is a "kluk kluk" sound when turning the wheel especially when its near the center. Occurs at all speeds, i.e. even when idle. Steering is a bit stiffer now as well. Did some research and read somewhere that the bushing might be out.

Anyone having this problem also? And could someone point me to a reputable mechanic? Or should I send it back to KIA SC? I was thinking cause there is some safety issues involved, i.e. need to remove the steering, air bags and all, so wouldn't want to risk this. Also, my warranty is already up, so I can choose not to send it back to SC.

Any help would be appreciated.
*
May check the CV joints,,they may make the kluk kluk noise when turning slowly,due to the tension caused by slow/heavy turning!
Or may check the wheel bearings too smile.gif

Guys,

Need your advice here.

i have just passed my 3rd service, i.e. 1 year.

Should I go back to the Kia SC to service my car or can I just go to normal workshop?

Also, can i use lower grade oil rather than the expensive premium used by SC?

Thanks alot.
*
May service at normal workshop like Korean carmates after warranty finished smile.gif
