Hi Scotty, I'm a Big fan up here in Richmond Hill, Ontario, I bought a 2008 Kia Sorento LX ( AWD) in 2018 for $3000.00 with 186,000. Kms, since owning it for almost 3 years ( has 202,000 Kms now) its been showing the codes ( I have a $40 reader) P0016 & P0018, I erase the codes  but comes on periodically, The engine purrs like a kitten at idle & no vibrations at higher RPMs, What could it be? Any thoughts?

You may have issues with the timing chain which needs to be addressed. Have a pro check the timing chain since you have an interference engine and you do not want pistons hit the valves.
