@@larrygray5671 no. We spoke with a friend that is a mechanic and he said he would start with valves but there is no telling what it is without getting in there and then we run the risk of not being able to get parts. We just decided to get rid of our Kia and found us something else.
Hey! I’m having the same issue with my 2016 Kia Sorento. Everything that I’ve read says the engines are crap! My Kia is paid off and the last thing I want to do is get a car payment with price of the vehicles right now. Did you have any luck with trying anything else?
Thank you a lot man, this is helpful, you are the only guy who have the same exact engine like mine, been searching youtube and there is nothing. I only found you when I searched using Arabic! Anyway, I would suggest changing the title of your video to something like ( 2016 kia optima 2.4 L pcv valve location & replacement) so your video show for ppl when they search
You have all the symptoms of the engine knock issue, Kia replaced my engine and I had a friend who was the second owner get a replacement as well. Kia will take care of this, but you need to bring it back or go to a different dealer. I had a little oil in my intake, but I am not burning oil like you are. I am installing a new pvc valve because I found a little oil inside the intake hose while adjusting the wastegate. Supposedly, this should be the fix.
We kept getting the run around from the dealers in our area so we just ended up taking a little loss and traded out of it. We came out a little better in the end but it sucks because we loved this car!
@@vinnypirro8344 yeah I still don’t know what the overall issue was with ours. We just couldn’t afford a payment for a vehicle that was stationary. Just took the loss and moved on. It will make a great deal for a mechanic that has the knowledge and money to fix it though.
Thanks for the video bud, I have the same model but AWD. KIA replaced the block with only 80,603 miles on it. I also bought an extended warranty 2 months ago if anything else fails that is not covered.
My 2018 kia Sorento was burning a lot of oil. I just switched the pcv valve today, and it was stuck open so it was bad Now I will check it and give an update in a few weeks and see
Hey Richard, did your PVC valve work for your oil leak? I have the same problem with mine 2018 Sorento. Dealership had a recall but it didn't apply to me because I wasn't the original owner. And they never even mention PVC Valve. I'm going to try replacing mine.
@the1bud no, it didn't . I took my vehicle to the dealership. I got it from they confirmed it is burning excessive oil. I'm currently doing an oil consumption test through the dealership. I have to drive 1,000 miles. Thank god for having an extended warranty through them.
@the1bud I went 1,000 miles, and they confirmed it burned 1 1/2 quats in 1,000 miles. I have to do 3 different oil consumption tests it's required by the warranty department, so I'm on my second one now.
@@jonneyotto2600 ours has broke down and doesn’t have any compression on cylinder 3. We are now thinking the rings are bad. Just waiting until I have the extra time to pull it apart and check it. It may be worth doing a compression test on yours. Give you an idea if it’s possibly rings.
@@jonneyotto2600 ohh yeah that’s wild. Ours didn’t do anything crazy with the rpm’s until it started miss firing. Now they’re all over the place as to be expected of course.
My name is Larry I got a 2017 when I bought it had 75,000 miles on it I change the oil 82000 at 87,000 it went down on cylinder 3 now within a month I'm I'm going through 6 quarts of oil and Kia don't want to warrant it cuz I ain't got a receipt showing I change the oil at 82,000 MI how to get me an attorney this has been going on for 4 months and I ain't had the car but 7
2016 kia sorento engine failed on me, i had to put another used engine, kia doesnt want to hear it or take care of the repair.. I had many cars in my life but never had such a headache, worst car ever.. Now i have a burning oil issue, plus my radiator fan stopped working.. Problem after problem. I will never buy a kia or hyundai again..
Yeah. Growing up my mom had a 2008 Sedona that they had literally zero issues with In 200k miles. They traded it in on a 2020 Sedona and it’s already been to the shop twice. The quality is going downhill quick
I am the second owner of my 2017 Kia Sorento. I bought it with a mileage of 80,000. I drove it for more than a month and it was out of warranty after driving 2,000 miles. Then I found that it was burning oil and I started to have a headache. Then after another month, there was a problem with acceleration. I checked the intake motor and replaced it. After driving it for 10,000 miles, the CVVT fault code P0010 appeared. I replaced the sensor and timing wheel. I am so confused. I have never had a car that gave me such a headache. This car is the beginning of a nightmare.
Unfortunately it wasn’t the fix for mine.
Did u try something else?
@@mahnaalyami3776 no. It has lost all compression in cylinder 3 now. We are trying to figure out the issue but no luck yet.
@@JustinG9698 did you ever find out what the problem is?

Thank you! I’ve been burning through oil like crazy and I just replaced this. I hope it solves my problem!
I hope so. It didn’t solve ours but hopefully it does yours!
Did it fix it ?
@@kailashgamer nope.. still burning up oil like a Ford…
Thanks, trying this out, will try to remember to update if it works for mine.

@@richardaskew5685, they wouldnt give me one be casue i wasnt the original owner and they dont take Carshield.

Did the new Pcv valve work and stop the engine from burning soo much oil?
No. It wasn’t the fix for mine.
I have the same issue w/ my Sorento. I changed the PCV and haven't notice much difference either
@@jonneyotto2600 ours has broke down and doesn’t have any compression on cylinder 3. We are now thinking the rings are bad. Just waiting until I have the extra time to pull it apart and check it.
It may be worth doing a compression test on yours. Give you an idea if it’s possibly rings.
@@JustinG9698 sounds like a good idea. I am currently getting a new crankshaft position sensor put in next. Weird rpm drops
@@jonneyotto2600 ohh yeah that’s wild. Ours didn’t do anything crazy with the rpm’s until it started miss firing. Now they’re all over the place as to be expected of course.
That model has a recall on the motor. I had mine replaced cause the burning of the oil cause the motor to seize up.
How many liters does a 4 cylinder gdi engine need for a 2017 Sorento?
I think mine took like 4.5. It should say in the owners manual though.
Where u can find it the PCV??
The top of the engine. I show you how in this video.
Very good video. Thank you
Thanks.
looks like your valve cover gasket needs to be replaced too. too much oil around the edges.
After talking to a mechanic friend we decided to get rid of it.
where is the vvt solenoid
I’m not sure. Sorry.
The sensor on the left corner of the engine is the CVVT. This car has a CVVT and an air intake panel. Burning oil is a common problem.

Wow! It’s crazy! I’ve just parked mine until I get the money to fix it.
I'm done with Kia
Same man!!
