SPORTAGE MUFFLER PIPE DRAIN – 2004-2007 Kia Sportage

SUBJECT:

SPORTAGE MUFFLER PIPE DRAIN

 

This bulletin provides information related to a reported no-start condition after parking overnight in areas where the temperature is below freezing. Some Sportage (KM) models produced from 10-28-2004 may experience a no-start condition in very cold climates because of an exhaust system restriction due to ice accumulation in the low area of the muffler pipe assembly.

Follow these guidelines to drill the proper size and position hole in the pipe to allow the condensation 1 water to drain from the muffler pipe assembly to prevent build-up and freezing.
