Yes the dreaded or maybe not depending on the repair catalyst below efficiency code. Came on for a short stint then went off on it's own.
One of my employees just purchased it after a garbage truck totalled her Kia Soul. It seems like a strong runner engine & transmission wise. Lots of power but a slight tick dependant on RPM. IMO it's either a leaking exhaust manifold gasket or maybe valvetrain. Really only audible with the radio & hvac off and even at that faint. It certainly could use shocks/bushings etc...but that's not my deal.
I am sure many a BITOG has had this engine or van so just looking for is it worth replacing the O2's or not.
