problem #1

Sorento LX 2.4L Gdi

  • Automatic transmission
  • 28,000 miles

Kia sorento 2020 drain plug keeps leaking. I've tried 2 different plugs (bolts) and several different types of crush rings/washers. I'm not sure what the fix is going to be but I'm going to keep trying!

Update from Aug 28, 2024: Resolution was that the dealership discovered that the oil pan at the drain bolt hole was cracked (defective) and Kia greeed to replace it under warranty.
