    Default Kia Sportivo

    Not my car, gf's dad..
    Well the story is that when it's getting turned over she'll jump forwards. Even if in reverse gear.
    Havent got exact details on everything but she is a 4X4 and a manual..

    Kia Sportage, not Toyota Camry Sportivo? lol

    Its strange behaviour alright. The ignition shouldn't work without the clutch depressed, so obviously they aren't forgetting to engage clutch before turning key lol

    I would suspect the clutch plate isn't fully disengaging? but that doesn't explain jumping forwards while in reverse gear... I did read that right didn't I, it jumps forward even while in reverse?

    I wonder if something has come adrift and the shifter isn't actually changing gears.. and the clutch isn't disengaging either.. hmmm dunno glad its not my car
