Re: wont start back up

have you changed the battery? does it say kia on it? if it does it is the original battery. this is starting to sound like my wifes 2000 kia before i told her to replace her battery.

I do not insist on this, but the conditions required to light up the CEL with P0335 or P0336 are running conditions: poor signal during starting only generally does not bring a code. However, most crank sensor failures are worst when engine is warm...so this works on your side.

Most improbable. Removing the belt would just confirm if a/c is the source of the noise.

Finally, was the IAC valve cleaned? That is a 0$ maintenance and it has proved to be the solution to poor starting in SEVERAL cases.
ALso check all hoses for air leaks. Also make sure little port in center of intake manifold is plugged. http://www.geocities.com/lmp4203/kia...vacuumhose.jpg
