Your Guide To What Kia Belts And Hoses Do
All About Kia Belts
There are three types of belts in your Kia car, MPV, or SUV not counting the seat belts. The timing belt turns your camshaft, allowing your valves to open and close in sync with the engine pistons. If it snaps or otherwise fails, your engine will stop working immediately.
Serpentine and drive belts, on the other hand, help to power parts like the alternator, power steering, water pump, and more. When they go bad, you typically have a bit of time to resolve the issue before problems begin to pile up.
All About Kia Hoses
Hoses help send fluids to and from parts. For example, your radiator uses hoses to route coolant to the engine, with more hoses directing the fluid back to the radiator so that the engine heat can be dispersed into the air. Since hoses tend to wear out from the inside, it's tough to tell when something's gone wrong -- until they break.
How to Spot Faulty Belts and Hoses
You should make a regular habit of checking both your belts and hoses for signs of damage. They include:
- Frayed belt edges
- Overly loose or slack belts
- Belts that are too tight
- Cracked hoses
- Large puddles of liquid underneath your vehicle
