I'm having a Kia Sportage gearbox problem.

Anomalies are difficult to ignore as they automatically affect the behaviour of your vehicle. Maybe the gears selected by your Kia Sportage automatic transmission are not the right ones?

You may also find it difficult to shift gears if lubrication is poor.

Other malfunctions can affect your gearbox, but in most cases they are the result of a lack of maintenance. Oil changes may be too long, the lubricant may not be the right one for your Sportage or defective parts may not have been spotted in time. It's also possible that the gearbox is deteriorating due to poor road conditions or improper driving habits.

Don't worry because there are several possible solutions, including replacing the defective box with a reliable product.

Of the 5 available petrol engines, 2 are delivered with a 6-speed manual gearbox and 3 are equipped with an automatic gearbox whose number of gears has now been increased to 6. In diesel, Kia offers a choice between two engines coupled with a 6-speed manual gearbox and a BVA6 version (6-speed auto transmission). If you're looking for a 2012 Kia SportageGearbox , it certainly belongs to one of the models mentioned above since the Korean manufacturer is only making modifications in 2015.

For its fourth generation, the Sportage is now available with a 7-speed automatic transmission combined with the 177 hp 1.6 T-GDI AWD engine. The CVT transmission also expands the range, equipping the 240 hp 2.0 GDI and 181 hp 2.4 GDI.

Since 2018, Kia has equipped its Sportage with an adaptive cruise control system that boosts the performance of the transmission system. Safety is also improved thanks to this technology. Gearbox Kia Sportage 1.7 crdi of 116 hp is the only 6-speed manual version. A BVM6 is available on the 136 hp and 185 hp 2.0 CRDI AWD engines. Gasoline engines come with a CVT, with the exception of the 177 hp 1.6 T-GDI AWD version, which is equipped with a 7-speed autobox.

This information should make it easy for you to identify which box to include if you need to replace the one on your Sportage.
