2008 Kia Rondo LX

Post by nickscarcare »

I have this vehicle in here and according to Mitchell when trying to ad the vehicle in it lists the 2.7l (vin 4), I do not have a vin 4. Is there correction that needs to be made? the vin is KNAFG526X87152209. It is a V6. I am running 5.9.5.151
Some people try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know why I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and some of the roads weren't paved.

The 2.7 is the V6. Other than an incorrect vin indicator, is the engine a 2.7?

8th digit is the engine. 5 would be the 4 cylinder and 6 is the 6 cylinder. Must just be a typo in the VID database

Yes it is the 2.7. I did post the VIN, I wanted to let someone know so they can get it fixed than. Hope this is the right spot!! :D

I've ran into this before but haven't put any real thought into it. Like you i've looked at the vin and the engine code # is wrong and sometimes the # i'm looking for isn't even in the vin. I just copy and paste the vin (all my issues have been on Japanese cars) onto my world pac order page.
