In this article, I will briefly outline what most often breaks down on a Kia Sportage 3, model 2010-2016, with the factory designation Sl or Sle. I work at a service station and have practical experience in this matter. Here we will describe not only typical "diseases" of the sportage, but also methods of their treatment. The article is intended to save the owner of such a car from hours of searching for information on sections of automobile forums. It will also be useful for those who are just going to purchase a used sports car, because it is important to understand what should be checked when buying. If I suddenly missed something, write in the comments.

A very common malfunction in the 3rd generation Sportage is a breakdown of the all-wheel drive system. It occurs even when the car is operated exclusively as an urban SUV, without using the all-wheel drive blocking function. After all, even if you do not press the 4WD lock button, the control unit automatically engages the rear axle at moments of sharp acceleration when starting off, or when the front wheels slip. The torque is constantly redistributed by the ITM unit between the front and rear wheels in a proportion from 100% - 0% to 50% - 50%, respectively.
There are two faults with all-wheel drive on the Sportage:
breakage of the all-wheel drive (FD) coupling;
corrosion of the splined connection between the gearbox (gearbox) and the transfer case;
Moreover, the second malfunction occurs much more often than the first.
It manifests itself as follows: there is no connection of the rear wheels, even in 4WD lock mode (i.e. when the button is pressed), while the 4WD system malfunction lamp on the instrument panel is on. It is important that the PTO shaft rotates during this!
In general terms, the clutch is a conventional multi-plate clutch system that is compressed under oil pressure. The pressure is generated by a pump attached to the coupling housing.
Error codes "P1832 Clutch Thermal Overstress Shutdown" or "P1831 Clutch Thermal Overstress Warning" appear. Here is a detailed article on drive2 about what exactly breaks down in this case and how you can repair it.
This happens especially often when the coupling overheats, with prolonged slip. Or with frequent use of 4WD lock mode. But this mode is intended only for short-term use on an area with difficult road conditions. Do not drive for a long time with the 4WD lock button pressed.
The problem is solved by replacing the PP clutch assembly. The part is not cheap, but there are firms that provide coupling repair services. These services are easy to find on the internet.
Another possible breakdown is a malfunction of the clutch pump itself. In this case, error code P1822 or P1820 occurs. On this issue, KIA even issued a service bulletin, according to which of. the dealer must replace the clutch assembly.
If the car is not under warranty, you need to replace the pump separately, which will be much cheaper. Only the new pump has already been modified and requires the purchase of a wiring.
Part Numbers: 4WD Clutch Pump - 478103B520, pump wiring 478913B310
The price for a pump with wiring is approximately 22,000 rubles.

Rust on transfer case splines, Sportage 3
This is not only a disease of the sportage, but also the Hyundai IX35 (Tucson), Santa Fe, Kia Sorento XM.
The diagnosis is quite simple: we lift the car on a lift, turn both front wheels at the same time and see if the propeller shaft rotates at the same time. If it does not spin, you need to remove the transfer case and inspect the spline joints to determine whether it is necessary to change the transfer case itself, or you can limit yourself to repairing the gearbox differential.
Rotten gearbox differential splines
The cause of the malfunction is the oil seal, which is located at the input of the intermediate shaft of the right axle shaft into the transfer case (here is its OE number: 47352-39300). Also, the reason is that the spline itself works without any lubrication from the factory.
You can extend the service life by doing prophylaxis right away when buying a car: remove (or push back the distributor) and apply lubricant to the splines. The issue price is up to 6,000 rubles.
If you are buying a used Sportage, be sure to check the car for these problems. The repair is quite expensive, it consists of the prices for differential parts (approx. 20,000 rubles) and the cost of the transfer case (600 USD, the price of a used one) and, of course, work on removing the gearbox and replacing parts (up to 20,000 rubles).
List of necessary spare parts for repairing all-wheel drive on Sportage 3, with OE - numbers
This disease begins to manifest itself with the characteristic noise from the gearbox, which is heard on a cold one, when the engine is idling. The service bulletin for this problem prescribes the replacement of the synchronizer rings for the 4th, 5th and 6th gears of the manual transmission.
Sometimes the reason may be in the "synchronization" of the 3rd gear and the corresponding gear. The reason is specifically determined after disassembling the box.
If the synchronizers are not replaced in time, more serious consequences may occur - the fur. damage to the teeth of the gears of the gears, which entails their replacement, and, consequently, more expensive repairs.
The cost of work usually costs up to $ 300. Plus the necessary spare parts.
The problem is similar to the one described above with four-wheel drive. Rotting out the spline connection between the right-hand drive shaft and the inner CV joint. This happens due to the ingress of water through the oil seal (or rather the boot). Further, corrosion does its job, the splines weaken and completely cut off. When the splines of the flap are cut off completely, the car will be able to reach the service only when the all-wheel drive is on, because as a result of the differential operation, all the torque of the front axle will go to the right side.
Corrosion of the splines of the flush shaft and drive, right, Sportage 3
Repair price: ramval 4 500 rubles, right CV joint up to 45 000 rubles.
As in the case with the connection of the transfer case - the box, it is necessary to do the prevention of flushing with the replacement of the oil seal and the application of lubricant, this will prolong the life of the splines.
Of course, such symptoms are typical for many diesel car breakdowns. But here we are talking about the most frequent malfunctions, those that sooner or later happen on all Sportage.
This "disease" is typical for diesel configurations with R 2.0 and U2 1.7 engines. There are usually two reasons for these symptoms:
malfunction of the boost pressure sensor, on a car with a 2-liter engine;
malfunction of the boost pressure sensor wiring, on cars with a 1.7 engine;
In both cases, the control unit switches the operation of the motor to emergency mode, which means, in particular, the cut-off of engine speed at around 3000 rpm. The driver gets the feeling that the turbine is simply not working. This, of course, is not the case.
On 2 liter diesels Error code P0299 Turbocharger / Supercharger Underboost or P0069 Manifold Absolute Pressure - Barometric Pressure Correlation is stored, or both.In most cases, the problem is solved by replacing the boost pressure sensor. Of course, it is necessary to carry out a full engine diagnostics before purchasing a sensor.
When ordering a sensor, it is important to pay attention to the inscriptions on it. There are two types of sensors: old ones, which were originally installed during the production of the first sports shoes, and modernized ones, which change once and do not break anymore.
The upgraded sensors are distinguished by the presence of the inscription "Au". It means that the PCB contains gold. This is an upgraded sensor that does not fail repeatedly.
The original price is about 2,000 rubles.
1.7-liter sportage the reason is not in the sensor itself, but in its wiring. The errors are as follows: P0237, P0238.
Charge pressure sensor connector, Sportage 3
On the electrical connector itself, the wires "fall off", and so it is impossible to solder them back. The solution should be either replacing the entire boost pressure sensor connector, or replacing the pin (contact) with a damaged wire.
You can try to find the connector on the disassembly. Or order from an authorized Kia or Hyundai dealer. Here is its catalog number 1898000066AS... The price does not exceed 1,500 rubles.
Further, we will focus mainly on breakdowns not related to power units and chassis.
Body electronics, parking assistance systems and a rear view camera are some more reasons for periodic service visits.
All sportage owners have repeatedly encountered inoperative parking assistance sensors. It manifests itself like this: turn on the reverse gear, there are no obstacles behind the car, and the buzzer of the parking sensors beeps, as if you have rested against something with a bumper. We'll have to replace the faulty sensor.
Or the second option: when the reverse gear is turned on, the parktronic signaling device emits several short (from 1 to 4) instead of a normal - single long beep. Thus, the number of the faulty sensor is issued, it is considered from left to right in the direction of travel. 2 short signals - second from the left sensor, 3 - third from the left. In this case, the problem may be both with the sensor itself and with its wiring, for example, oxidation of the connector.
Part numbers of sensors: 95720-3u000 - outdoor, 95720-3u100 - internal. (this number is only for cars without automatic parking system, SPAS). The original price is about $ 50. You can buy Chinese for $ 18 on Aliexpress, it works great too.
The sensors fail due to the ingress of water inside, and, unfortunately, replaced ones often break down again.
Also a fairly common problem is moisture ingress and oxidation of the rear view camera. At the same time, in the early stages, the camera image becomes cloudy or periodically disappears, and later disappears completely. Most often, the camera cannot be repaired. the contacts of the board will rot completely.
It's good if this happened during the warranty period of the car. After all, the price of the new original is about 350 US dollars. Here is her number 95750-3w000.
In order to save money, many owners buy an ordinary Chinese camera and install it instead of the standard one.
In rainy weather, or during sharp temperature changes from frost to above zero, a malfunction of the instrument panel is occasionally manifested in sportages. It just won't turn on. All devices do not work, the on-board computer display does not light up. Only the "Check engine" lamps and the indication of an open door and an unfastened seat belt are on. Also, the heated rear window does not turn on.
All these symptoms are caused by moisture getting on the circuit board of the tidy, under the main processor. The reason, most likely, is the poor-quality processing of the board with a special varnish.
Moisture appears due to condensation, with sudden changes in temperature.
If the car is under warranty, hurry to the service, the dashboard will be replaced with a new one. If the warranty is over, repairs will cost you a pretty penny. The cost of the new tidy is about 50,000 rubles. But take your time to buy it.
As the experience of many owners of such cars shows, it is possible to repair the panel by simple drying. To do this, it is not even necessary to remove the tidy from the car. The easiest way is to warm it up by turning on the heater to the maximum and closing all the doors, let the stove run until it gets hot enough in the cabin, about 20-30 minutes. In 9 cases out of 10, this method helps and the panel comes to life.
If it doesn't work, dismantle the tidy and warm up the board with a hair dryer, for example. After she has earned it will not be superfluous to cover the board with a layer of special. varnish, which can be purchased at any store for radio amateurs.
