Apr 20, 2009 5,222 496 25,935 #1 Any veiws on the above tow car folks? 2009 model with 32k on the clock Ive looked at the Santa Fe, BM x5, Disco, another Shogun, but cant make up my mind. Current Shogun Sport needs a fair bit spent on it approx £1200,00, cambelt, water pump, 2 new rocker cover gaskets, mot due, and a squeak from the rear which I cant find, oh and you can have a cold shower from the sunroof!! Any Veiws Dusty Dog?? #2 Kev..... If i remember Sir Roger has a BMW X5 ...... DustyDog has the Kia Sorento..... Lady Mel had a Santa Fe but changed to a New type Freelander..... so some good reviews should come your way soon ..... Nov 11, 2009 15,157 3,724 50,935 #3 I had an 04 Sorento XS auto which we kept until 2011 and it was the best car we have ever owned as well as a fine tow car. It never had anything go wrong not even a light bulb and servicing costs were reasonable. The one you are looking at will have the higher power engine but otherwise most things are the same. Make sure that the back axle area has been seen by a Kia dealer. It is susceptible to corrosion and although there is not a recall Kia are doing any work required to fix it. Make sure it has a FSH and if you buy it pay for all fluids/lubs to be cahnged at your own garage. Mine is happy for me to supply the lubs which cuts teh cost down quite a lot. As an aside the Sorrie makes a fine off road car which we used quite often on Salisbury Plain and mid Wales in group treks. My wife still gives me 'rocks' for selling the Kia as she will not drive the XC70, says its too wide. This from someone who drove Discos, Sorento, Mondeos and Saab 9000s!! So I suspect the XC70 will be on its way soon, but as most cars able to tow a van are quite wide, and our town has very narrow streets its replacment would be an issue. The Pajero might be bought back into towing use. #4 I have a 58 September Sorento XS Auto that I have had from new. Now has 27K on clock. Best towcar I have had. Previous 4 x 4s Discovery (if anything could fall off or break it did), Nissan Terrano, great towcar but underpowered. Before those I towed with a variety of cars including Volvo estates and BMWs. As other Clive has said make sure it has a full service history and that Back axle and suports have been checked by a Kia dealer. They are doing a rework programme at no cost to owner to prevent rusting on these models. I had mine done at Kia a few months ago, it took about 2 hours. Apr 20, 2009 5,222 496 25,935 #5 The one I'm looking at has FSH Question 1; Does the rear axle etc give a bigger cuase for concern at a later date or is it a reliable fix Question 2; Looking at theSorrie tow weight at 3500kg and looking at the Santa Fe tow weight at 2000kg they both have a engine I'm guessing it is all to do with the torque/BHP etc is that correct? If my sums are right the Santa Fe would be dead on the 85% recommendation with a 1700kg van so would the Santa Fe struggle more on hills etc? Thanks in advance.

Basically runs with rear wheel drive but front drive comes in automatically when required. Limited slip diff is standard as is self levelling suspension, leather heated seats cruise control and many other extras. I had mine new in july 2005. 123k miles later still going strong on original clutch engine. Better mpg than your to tow. Half my sorries mileage has been towing. A bit long in the tooth by modern standards but without doubt a very willing workhorse , well kitted out and comfortable. have a look at uk sorento web. Haven't got the link today.

Plus the road tax for the automatic was about £495 per annum. Have now gone for the Honda CRV. Sorrento was a really great car but found it a little expensive for me to run all year round. Nov 11, 2009 15,157 3,724 50,935 #8 The difference in tow weights between the Kia and SantaFe comes down to the ladder chassis on the Kia and its got a low ratio gearbox which the SantaFe doesn't have. This gives you an extra set of gears which effectively multiplies the engines towing torque but road speed is reduced accordingly.

Thanks for the tip Dusty, good job I was late home from work today and didnt have time to look at it, went three miles to local garage to look at Santa Fe but they sold it yesterday, so phoned another dealer to look at a BM X5 but they said I couldnt look at it as it was out on loan ?????? If it's for sale why put more miles on the clock ??? wont be looking at that one!!!

Hii georgeandade thanks for your reply, that means I would get nearly TWICE the milage I currently get with my Shogun.(Petrol Road tax would double but would proberbly save the differance on fuel, not that we do a lot of miles a year (approx 4k to 5k) but it all counts.

But saying that we never had any problems on the road as you adjust your driving style accordingly. Regarding practical caravan tow loads both Kia and SantaFe will haul most UK caravans without any problems re tow weight MTPLM. When we bought our Kia the equivalent SantaFe was the original model which we didn't like and wasn't anywhere near the Sorrie capability. But with hindsight we would not have opted for the SantaFe over the Sorrie as our need was for something able to go off road down French mountain tracks and the Kia was a proper off roader like your Shogun. Apr 20, 2009 5,222 496 25,935 #13 What is the nose weight of the Sorrie please? Currently have 105kg on the Shogun so would like the next vehicle to be 100kg Jun 20, 2005 14,620 1,972 40,935 #14 Hi Kev Kia say 112kgs. All Sories by now should have been checked for corrosion on the rear axle FOC. Mine was done last year. A quick wire brush. Spray of black paint and like new. Look at the Sorie owners site. Eveything you will ever need to know. Mar 17, 2007 4,714 746 20,935 #15 Hi Kev. we had a Sante Fe. Never had a Sorrie. Perfectly happy with the Sante Fe. Towed our 1500kg van with no problem. Did wallow a bit. However, OH is happier with the Freelander 2 we replaced it with. mel Apr 20, 2009 5,222 496 25,935 #16 Hi Kev. we had a Sante Fe. Never had a Sorrie.

Still searching!!!!! Apr 20, 2009 5,222 496 25,935 #17 Well folks thanks for all your replies and sorry if I'm about to dissapoint you now. Put a deposit down today on a ....................................................Shogun!!!! Went for the Shogun Di Equippe 2007, Diesel, Auto, 3500 kg towing, 135 kg nose weight. (I know the van is 100kg) The reason I went for this was I looked at the Disco, Bmw x5, Volvo XC90 etc (no Kia's local to me at present) and for value for money ie; lower milage and about two years newer. It is also 100mm wider than present sport, I thought it was better the devil you know The present sport has done us proud over the last 6 years, with minimal outlay,(except yesterday when the OH couldnt close the sunroof and I had to leave work early to sort it) road tax is higher but should save that in fuel, (here's hoping). Nov 11, 2009 15,157 3,724 50,935 #18 Good choice Kev. I went on a trip to mid Wales back in November and a Kiwi and his family turned up in one like yours and similar reg. He'd fitted some Arbil under guards and its off rooad capabilty was great. Much to everyone's surprise he put it through the Strata Florida Bomb Hole (see Youtube lots of clips) and apart from some grinding of his guards and towbar she came through as well as the tour leaders much modified Disco1. Great cars, and reliable too! Must say though that I have never put the Pajero through the Bomb Hole....too much respect for mechanical things. But a Defender and Troooper I was with went through, and both finished the weekend being recovered home due to suspension damage. See linked blog to tour photos Daves show a Disco going down the Bomb Hole..

MPtw is 1350KG(or something like that). I messed up when we ordered it because at the moment we have a Seat Altea XL 138bhp with only a maximum towing weight of 1400kg(Manufact Rec) and therefore near 97%.... So, after appologising to my wife for my big mistake we are now looking at a new Kia Sorento CRDI XE... the XE is quite a bit less cost than the XS/XT/Titan... However, there a number of less features on the XE... could someone please give me some advice on whether the XE will do the job or that we should consider the XS which I know was voted towcar 2008????? any advice would be very welcomed... Thanks Steven #2 I have been taking a keen interest in the Sorento of late with a view to buying one. The XE/XS ect i think will just relate to equipment levels. The higher up the range you go the more goodies you will get. As a towcar all the reports say it is brilliant. A couple of my friends tow with one and absolutely love it. I don't think you will go far wrong with the Sorento. #3 I have been taking a keen interest in the Sorento of late with a view to buying one.

Steven Nov 11, 2009 15,157 3,724 50,935 #4 Yes Julian is correct about the equipment levels and general spec. The most significant difference being that for the higher spec model you get Automatic Torque on Demand/or Transfer. This basically means that the car drives in rear wheel drive most of the time, but when slippage of the front wheels is detected it seamlessly engages 4wd. If combined with the 5 speed auto box the driver input is minimal. With ATD/T you select fixed 4wd low ratio with a dash mounted switch. The non ATD/T cars have the same twoing and off road capabilty but your dash switch requires you to select High 4wd, low 4wd or 2wd. #5 Yes Julian is correct about the equipment levels and general spec.

I think I know where you are coming from as he did say in the dealership that most of the time I would put in 2wd mode(plus more economical), but can select the 4wd hi and lo options by switching too manually... I did consider the XS and XT models but as I said in my posting I made a mistake with my exising SEAT and so the next level up from the XE, ie. the XS was about another 3k. So, given a few less luxeries and having to change from 2wd to 4wd lo/hi, I have just purchased a 2009 Lunar 534 mad load 1350kg I am asuming that I have still made an OK choice with the Kia XE.. Also on the caravan I have opted for the factory fitted ATC feature, will this also help the overall safety of the Van?... Thanks #6 I have a Sorento Titan Auto and its the best tow car ive had the only difference in the model your looking at is trim and xtras such as no sun roof Im sure if you go for the Sorento you will be delighted and it will tow your van with little effort. #7 Hi Steven, your mistake may not have been as serious as you imagine. It looks to me as if you have worked out your towing ratio by comparing the MTPLM of the caravan with the maximum tow weight for the car. This is incorrect and you should compare with the kerb weight. I have had a quick look at Seat's web site, and this gives kerb weights for the 2009 XL Stylance as 1469 and 1504 Kg for the manual and DSG versions respectively. These values give 92% and 90% towing ratios rather than the 97% you quoted. Manufacturer's kerb weights are notoriously inaccurate, and the actual figures are likely to be better than this (but you would need to check on a weighbridge.) I am sure many on here tow with higher ratios than you would have, based on the above figures. Power wise I would not expect you to have any problems. I am not saying the Sorento may not do the job better, but your wallet would probably appreciate it if you at least gave the Seat a try (especially in these 'credit crunch' times.)

Thanks Steven, you have made agood choice, the Kia XE is a fine car and will tow your van without any trouble whatsoever. Even pitching up onwet CLs my XS with TOD rarely cuts into 4wd. What i tend to do to prevent churning the grass is to engage 4wd low and she just crawls the van into place without any grass damage.

Would the percentages and weights etc not cause snaking and stability problems or do you still think I may be ok. we have also had ATC fitted at the factory by Lunar on the 534, 2009 model van.. thanks steven #10 Hi again Steven. Regarding your last comment, I do not think I am qualified to give a 100% guarantee one way or the other, but I am sure many people tow safely with a 92% ratio of caravan to car weight. It would be interesting to hear the experiences of others who tow with a similar set up to yours. If Lutz spots this thread, perhaps he may have a view. If not, you could start a new thread with his name in the title - I have always found his views very informative. Enjoy your holidays, Trevor M #11 Hi again Steven.

Enjoy your holidays, Trevor M thanks again Mar 14, 2005 15,458 1,843 50,935 #12 Hello Trevor, Based on the figures I have seen posted by you and others, it seems that you are contemplating towing with a high ratio of over 90%. I also note that you are new to towing, and these two facts together are of some concern. Most novice towers will start with a much lower towing ratio, and as they build their experience, they may feel able to handle higher ratio's, But ratios alone do not determine if an outfit is good or bad. Many other factors come into play, and it is a broad range of characteristics that affect the tow-a-bility of an outfit. The maximum permitted towed mass is set out by the vehicle manufacturer. This must not be exceeded along with the Gross Train Weight and axle loadings. Generally it is better to keep the overall weight of a trailer as low as possible. Some suggest only 85% though this has no legal bearing and is a guideline only. The way the load is stored in the caravan will affect its towing. It is good practice to keep heavy items low down, and as near to the axle as possible. The detailed disposition of the loaded items must be adjusted to create enough nose load to keep the outfit stable, but must not exceed the either the limit of the caravan hitch or the tow bar assembly on the car. Don't forget that the trailers nose load is supported by the car, so this forms part of the cars paylaod. Don't over-load the car. Good vehicle maintenance and tyre checks are also important. One of the biggest contributing factors in instability is excessive speed. This is down to the driver, who must also read the road conditions ahead, and avoid sudden braking and changes of direction. As Trevor has very succinctly said many people do tow quite safely with high figures, but in most cases they have gained years of experience which allows them to 'feel'the outfit and understand how to cope with it. #13 Hi Steven we had a 2003 manual Sorento XS and changed recently for a 2008 (1 year old) Sorento XE. We gave up the permanent 4 wheel drive, leather upholstery, sunroof and cruise control. Have I missed any? A big no! We use CLs and go away most weekends. Since end January when we took delivery, have engaged 4wd on 2 wet sites with no problems. Cruise control was nice, but happy to use my right foot. Newer one is much more powerful and tows our Wyoming with ease.

Naše poslední auto s přítelkyní byla Primera P12 kombi, ve které jsme jezdili po Evropě a spali v ní, bylo to úplně v pohodě. Zajímalo by mě, jestli někdo takhle spíte v Sorentu a jestli na to má dost velký kufr. Uvažoval jsem také o zabudování zvýšené plošiny, aby se plocha v kufru rozšířila i na "oblouky" nad koly (běžně se dělá třeba do Pajera nebo Trooperu (moje druhá volba). Bohužel teď nemám možnost si ji nikde prohlédnout zevnitř. Na Primeře mě štvalo jenom to, že se s ní nedalo zajet na polňačku nebo na louku, nebo ve Španělsku u moře neprojela kamenité cesty u břehu. Často také jezdíme stanovat na místo, kam se prostě osobákem nedá projet a musíme to dojít.

With a kerbweight of well over two tonnes, the Kia offers good towing ability and solid build quality. Although the ride and the vague steering have been addressed, they are still not quite good enough to earn the car a full five stars. However, it offers an awful lot of tow car for your money. Pros Running costs are very reasonable The engine pulls strongly when towing Cons The suspension is a bit choppy on rough roads Although the previous version of the Kia Sorento looked like a Mercedes-Benz M-Class, it proved that it was not a cheap imitation. It was overall winner of last year’s Caravan Club Towcar of the Year and remains a favourite among caravanners for its good towing dynamics and low price. Now Kia has revised it, giving it more power, better suspension and sharper steering. Inside, there is a more user-friendly instrument panel. But is the new Sorento such a big improvement on its predecessor? We’ve put a lot of miles on a 2004 model, so we’re well-placed to compare the two. Its turbodiesel engine pulled strongly through the gears and offered lots of low-down torqueTowingWe rated this four out of five for towing. One of the old Sorento’s best features was its turbodiesel engine, which pulled strongly through the gears and offered lots of low-down torque. Power has now been boosted by 30bhp and torque increased to 289lb ft from 232lb ft. This gives it far more muscle than most rivals, such as the Hyundai Santa Fe and the Nissan X-Trail. This extra torque kicks in higher up in the rev range than on the old version. There is little turbo lag between when you hit the accelerator and time the turbocharger starts. The automatic five-speed gearbox works well when towing and doesn’t hunt for gears on hills – the manual override allows for engine breaking down steep inclines. A high kerbweight lets the Sorento take on heavy caravans. It is very stable with our long-term Lunar Quasar, although the suspension transmits nudges and shunts from the caravan to the car. However, the improved suspension set-up keeps the new Sorento more settled than the outgoing version. Everyday DrivingSo it tows well, but how about when driving solo? While the old Sorento’s ride was floaty, the new version, with its Porsche-tuned suspension, feels rather choppy over rough roads. However, cornering is much better, with the firm suspension reducing body roll. Steering has also been improved – it’s still light, but it’s now more direct and accurate. One of the strengths of the old car was its responsive turbodiesel engine. The new engine in this Kia is smooth and quiet when cruising, as well. The model we tested was mated to the H-matic five-speed automatic. Changes were smooth, but the gearbox often did not know what gear to select on corners. XS (as tested) and XT models have full-time, four-wheel drive, incorporating the Active Torque Transfer system. This transfers optimum drive between front and rear wheels according to conditions. In the XE, all-wheel drive is activated when needed. SpaceThe interior of this Kia is solidly built and well finished, from the leather upholstery to the high-quality plastics on the dash. The gauges are clearly set out and the dials get a touch of class with a new chrome trim. Overall, the cabin is functional rather than luxurious. The driving position is good, as is the visibility all around. The front seats were reshaped to allow a bit more legroom for rear-seat passengers. The rear seats fold right down to create a flat load area, and while the suspension turrets intrude into the load space, it can still hold 1849 litres of cargo. This beats such rivals as the Nissan X-Trail, which has a 1841-litre max. Running CostsDepreciation on the auto-gearbox Sorento is 48%, which is not as bad as initially feared. There is a ready market for those who want to get their hands on this competent tug. The Kia is competitively priced when new. With prices starting at around £20,000, you could buy one for the cost of depreciation of more prestigious 4x4s. The model we tested came with climate control, cruise control, and 16-inch, five-spoke alloy wheels, for £24,095. Running the Sorento is not all that expensive either. The diesel auto returns combined solo – when towing the Lunar Quasar, it gets 22mpg, which is not bad for an all-wheel-drive of this size. The prices for servicing and parts are also low. Last year, Kia won the 4×4 section in the J D Power customer satisfaction survey. This was partly due to the dealerships, which were said to be friendly and helpful. But some of our readers have complained of poor dealer service. Technical Specifications Torque289 lb ftOffical mpg
