My 2010 Kia Forte Coupe with the 2.4 L engine has trouble with random misfires. It may be cylinder 2, 3, or 4 according to the computer code reader. It may occur only a minute or an entire afternoon on a trip. It usually trips the engine light. Most of the time it does not effect running except...

Hey everyone, I just recently purchased a 2015 Kia Forte LX and I was looking for any advice on performance parts I can put in. I don't have a large budget so I'm looking for best bang for my buck kind of parts but I'm open to every suggestion. I know basically nothing about car parts, so any...

Popped open the hood of the Kitty Koup to find the engine cover completely fubar. It looks like I'm missing things too? I was going to detail the engine bay myself, but I think I'm going to need some heavy duty materials. My current plan of action: lightly hose it off, use some armor all, turtle...

Hi! I own a 2011 Kia Forte 2.0L and it has about 115,000 miles on it. For the past year it has been jerking backwards sometimes when I accelerate and the check engine light will turn on after and the engine will start being super rough if I’m not going forward or if I try to accelerate. I...

Hey Everyone! I joined because my wife has a 2014 Kia Forte That recently took a dump. It looks like we are going to need to replace the motor. Does anyone have one they are wanting to sell or know of a place I can find one for a reasonable price? I am in SW Missouri but willing to have it...

Hey guys. I own a 2011 Kia Forte Koup EX. The performance of this car is outstanding 95% of the time. But every once in a while, my traction light comes on and it feels like it won't shift past 3rd gear or go over 2,000 RPM. I pull over, turn off the vehicle, and turn it back on, and that...

I have a kia forte 2012 LX automatic transmission, with 76,900k miles, 2 months ago it started to make a very annoying noise, usually it is very loud at 1500rpm, has someone had that problem? I suspect a chain tensioner or a stuck valve, I attach a video that is not mine but it is exactly the...

Hey guys so I have a 2011 sx every now and then when I get on the freeway my car will suddenly lose power, I’m not sure if it’s a piston misfiring. I’ll turn my abs off and when I get to about 4-5000 Rpms my car with start to sputter it’s like if I ripped the e-brake for a split second. I don’t...

Hello everyone! New over here :D So my family recently got a 2010 Forte EX 2.0L with 110k miles, everything on it works and it's in pretty good condition, but it's got this weird issue, it has happened twice already: Say that you arrive from driving it for a while, park it turn off the engine...

Hey everyone, So my 2010 2.0l forte w/ around 110k on it has been making an awful sound for a while now. I'd say around around 6-7 months tbh. It seems to be located around the left side of the engine (by the accessory drive area) and it is like a whirring or droning noise. This noise...

This has been a nightmare. I washed my car, and started to head home when I noticed a little knocking sound under the hood. I thought, well it has idled a minute so maybe the lack of Rpm's is the cause. I pressed the gas, and it stopped. I went on my way but after about 20 miles, it began...

Hi everyone! I'm new here; this is my first post. I recently bought this car just over a month ago; been loving it so far, but it's always had this engine ticking noise at cold start (sitting overnight) since I bought it. I recorded the noise with my phone - here is the YouTube video of it: If...

So I made a post a few days ago about my issues with my engine misfiring after being "repaired" twice. Today I took it back again and the dealer explained that cylinder #2 had lower compression than the others. They've given me a rental while they work with Kia HQ on what steps to take in the...

I have been doing a lot of research but to no help. I am looking to see what all I will need to add a turbo to my stock 2.0 Forte. I have already looked into a turbo from TurboKitz.com and that is more than likely what I will be going with. I also will be getting their Cold Air Intake and their...
