Q: Sometimes my 2001 kia sephia does not move when I put it in reverse. Do I need a new transmission?
When it does not move backwards after putting it into the reverse gear, I move it back to drive and then back into the reverse gear and she kicks into reverse and moves backward. I do not have any burning smell from the transmission fluid and it is not leaking fluid. This car has only got 53,000 kgs. and has not been driven hard. What could be the problem?

A: it could be that reverse gear has been partially stripped. when we talk gears we are literally talking of mechanical gears. sometimes teeth break off from normal wear and tear, after so many break off the gear has trouble engaging. you will either have to have the transmission rebuilt or have new one installed, hope its under warranty this kind of work can be costly. Most likely this is the problem. If your car is standard transmission it could be your clutch is having trouble engaging, but this would also affect forward gears so it is most likely your reverse gear is missing teeth

Q: i have a 2001 kia sephia and its making a whining noise what could it be?
i already checked the belts and pulleys also changed the in take manifold gasket i should tell you that the car is loosing power to the point that it dies.

A: This sounds that there is air entering into the system, probably the intake section. The leak may not be from the gasket but from elsewhere. I would suggest that you take the car and carefully check the routing of the complete inlet system. The power loss plus whining cannot be from any other source.

Q: Where are the spark plugs in a 2001 Kia Sephia?


A: That last answer was no help! If it's like a lot of new cars the plugs have no wires to trace to the plugs. Most likely there is a long cover over them on the top or side of the engine. The cove is the wires and the coil--no more distributer. Try going to an auto store that sells manuals--then look it up. John Irvine Ca.
