Please help ! I have a 2017 Kia Forte ! It just started shutting off when come to a stop (coasting) or put my car in reverse , each time no light are on ( no check engine) and it starts right up with no problems !? Car runs great and has no problems other wise! Any suggestions?? Thank you ....

Diagnosing your car through this computer is close to impossible...
Typical things to check:
Dirty throttle body
Dirty air filter
Fouled fuel injector(s)
Bad MAP sensor
I'd still recommend you get the OBDII checked for codes or pending codes. The Check Engine Light might not be coming on because the car shuts off before the parameters to turn the light on aren't met - may be a pending code stored to tell you what the problem is.

Take it to the service department.

Good Luck!

Totally agree with above. Get the computer scanned for codes first.

Mine just started doing this same thing. I was told by Meineke ($118) that it’s my alternator but my mechanic checked all of that and more. Battery good, alternator good. Spark plugs and coils good. No leaks. OBD2 no codes. I do need an oil change and air filter. But it cranks right up and drives fine.

Did you ever get your issue resolved? mine is doing the same thing. Once it's at operating temp. it will shut off when I come to a stop. Starts right back up. No codes?

Hi Lindy!
Did you ever resolve your issue with your Kia? Mine is doing the same thing. Been at Kia for a month and they cant figure it out. Once it's running for about 30 minutes when I come to a stop it will shut off. Starts right back up, no codes?

Dude, Lindy hasn't been back in almost 3 years. I DON'T think you're going to get a reply.

Look, I had this same exact problem 2015 Kia Forte. Just unplug this solenoid/sensor from behind the valve cover. Took a long time to find this out for me. It will make your check engine light come on and put your timing into default mode. I can give more information if you're curious. You do not have to take the cover off, it is just something to unplug right behind the valve cover. Looking at the valve cover, it is behind it on the left side. A simple little plug like a sensor. It took a lot of time and trying to fix random things. Not one single feed had the answer for me. We had to find this with an expert Mechanic in person.

So did you just leave this sensor unplugged and that solved your problem? OR did you replace that sensor and clear the CEL?

Passenger side behind the valve cover? VVT solenoid?
