Kia Sorento Not Starting

Our customer had their 2006 Kia Sorento towed into us after the dealer told them repairing their vehicle could cost them up to $8,000! They were receiving codes from their computer that included the camshaft position sensor, crankshaft position sensor and oxygen sensors. The oxygen sensor codes were due to the fact that the camshaft position sensor was not functioning correctly, therefore the air/fuel mixture was incorrect. Our customer was told they would need to replace all of the oxygen sensors and camshaft position sensor. The crankshaft position sensor code was coming up because of a weak battery.

We found that the timing belt was loose, had jumped a tooth on the passenger side intake cam and the camshaft position sensor was completely non-functional.  After replacing the timing belt and all related components with the camshaft position sensor, our customer's vehicle runs perfectly and purrs like a kitten. This customer paid no diagnostic charges to get this problem diagnosed at Mastermind Enterprises Auto Care.
