Frequently Asked Questions
Is the timing chain on the 3.8L Lambda V6 covered in detail?
Yes. The manual includes full timing chain inspection criteria, tensioner and guide replacement procedures, and the precise torque sequences required when reassembling the front cover — a known wear item on higher-mileage Borrego V6 engines.
Does this manual cover the Kia Mohave as well?
The Kia Borrego and Kia Mohave share the same HM platform architecture, so the mechanical, electrical, and body procedures in this manual apply directly to both nameplates. Differences are primarily trim and market-specific equipment.
Are complete wiring diagrams included for the 4WD and ABS systems?
Full circuit diagrams are included for the 4WD transfer case control system, ABS/stability control module, airbag SRS, HVAC, and all body electrical circuits. Connector pin-outs, ground locations, and diagnostic flowcharts are all present.
What format is the manual?
The manual is a fully searchable PDF file. After purchase you can download it immediately and access it on any Windows or Mac computer, tablet, or smartphone using any standard PDF reader — no special software required.
