Car Forum / Kia Cars / February 2005Kia sportage four wheel drive
The four wheel drive on my 1998 Kia Sportage isn't working. It shows it is in 4x4 but it isn't. Any ideas? make sure the front hubs are operating. have your mechanic run it on a lift. might be in bad need of lubrication. the vacuum seals in the front drive hubs need to be replaced. common problem if you haven't used the 4wd in a while. they dry up and the shaft spline won't engage. you didn't say what year your sportage is. in the 98-99, they replace the hubs with a manual one that you have to get out and turn by hand like a switch. In the 2000 and on the seal kit runs about $40 and a couple hours labor. saw this on ebay this morning, might be what you are looking for to solve your problem. highlight the entire paragraph and paste in your browser. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=7953209583&ca tegory=33728
