No
if the filter or fuel system was faulty , it would not restart immediately
I would be checking items like the crank position /cam position sensors
immobilizer system
ignition switch ( dangly things hanging off the key switching the ignition off)_
try running the fault codes to see if anything else like the dti sensor module has loose connections or is faulty

SOURCE: Low beam bulb blown 2008 Sorento LX

Welcome to Buying Headlights Anonymous. If you have a Kia, you'll soon own shares in Sylvania.
I have an '03, and if the mounts haven't changed, you get at the bulbs by opening the hood and removing three screws that hold the headlight assemply - large screws in plastic tabs. ONce they're out, pull forward on the inside edge (toward the centre of the grill) of the headlight assemply. Should slide out toward you - might hear a 'snap'. Once it is out, unscrew the 'cap' behind the light, diengage the spring clip and pull out the bulb.

SOURCE: kia sorento diesel engine

could be you have a few bad glow plugs or a relay for them or a bad glow plug controler. the glow plugs are basicly a direct short that creates heat that warms the air in the cylinder to aid initial start.they can be checked wiyh an ohm meter. remove the wire and place one lead on the wire connecter of the plug the other to a good ground.you should have good connectivity. if not replace the plug

2007 kia sorento lx 4x4 (only 48k mileage) my vehicle suddenly loss power keeping me from accelerating over 20mph during this i notice esc light came on and the check engine light remains on.

Your vehicle has had a fault that has forced the computer to put the vehicle into "Crawl" mode. This allows you to take the vehicle to a repairer to evaluate and repair the problem at which time the repairer will reset your computer. Driving your vehicle in this mode for long distances is not recommended as you might do more damage to whatever is wrong. If you have only 48 kilometres on the vehicle, then it is basically brand new and will still be under the manufacturers warranty, take it back to the dealer you bought the vehicle from.

The vehicle can`t start after i have replace a set of injectors.

you may need to purge the air from your system. if you dont know how try turning your key to the run position, not start, but run, let the fuel pump kick in and run its cycle, then turn off and repeat process a few time, hopefully this will work, good luck.
