Hello, last week someone drove me into the car when I was shopping. The left side is damaged. The headlights and the fog lights have been damaged and these have to be renewed. No note on the car, according to the police no one has seen or reported anything. I drive a KIA Ceed JD (1260/ACV) from 2013. And I need now said left headlights and left fog lights new. At KIA itself these are certainly very expensive. Since I’m at the moment I don’t know which ones I have installed at the moment, but I think these are the original ones of KIA. Do you see/notic this when I put in the headlights of another brand on the left side? Thanks and a beautiful Sunday, Rainer

Hello Slowly my car really annoys me. I for 6 weeks the XCEED. About my problems with the increased air pressure at pickup, the crooked plastic cover at the tailgate and the failed repair I had reported. In addition, since the beginning of the R gang. This was almost fixed. Only very rarely goes in the 2nd attempt. You set the circuit again. Now it happened to me yesterday already for the 3rd time that I wanted to start the car and the inserted But the lever was completely fixed. Only in the 4th attempt I got the neutral position. Not without power but not brutally. When driving it switches normally. No scratching and squeaking. I think the workshop is going to crash. Just like me soon. In the net one reads there with the symptoms of gear damage. The XCEED is such a nice car. But that’s just annoying. Oh yes. The track was also delayed at delivery. Fixed 😉

Hello dear forum members, we have been in possession of our new KIA Ceed SW (MY23) for 2 days and are trying to find out a few things about the operation and configuration options. Unfortunately, when I was looking for a PDF manual in which I could search faster than in the paper edition (with a poor index), I did not find out in the net. What I found is definitely a bit older (old KIA logo). So I wanted to ask you about it. , if someone knows where to download the manual in electronic form (and by that I don’t mean http://webmanual.kia.com/STD_GEN5W/AVNT/EU/German/index.html ). In the supplied user manual, only a QR code is included to the Navi, with which you can then get to the above page. I would be interested, for example, if you can configure that a speech message interrupts the media playback when navigating instead of letting it run quieter. For radio and music is that’s all right, as it is; but for the playback of audiobooks I would rather the audiobook be stopped before the next navigation announcement comes. Besides, the last navigation announcement comes very short (20m), before you have to turn, if necessary, while the penultimate is already 300m before. Can you influence it? Usually you are already in the middle of the intersection with the car, before the announcement is finished… I am looking forward to helpful Notes from you – have a nice Whit Monday evening! OveSo

Hello guys, does anyone know if there are still Naviupdates Gen2 after 7 years and what or if they cost something? Does anyone have experience? I think the radio system is LG. Has anyone ever built a new radio with Android car as an alternative and if so, which one?

Hello together, I have recently become aware of the Procced GT / GT Line … a very nice car …. “..for a Kia …” 🙂 Design can now … Am currently looking for a new car and because of the Proceed became aware of Kia for the first time. Conditions I could get / use very good .. However, “disturbing” me a detail extraordinary: the Keyless-Go system … it is installed as standard and one hears meanwhile some about increasing theft rates w egen Interception of radio signals of the keys (possibly with range extension) … Did I quickly calculate the insurance rates and am somewhat surprised / scared like “high” / “price” the classifications are for a big city …. A VW GTI eg (without Keyless) is significantly cheaper ? Has anyone thought about the Keyless-Go system ? Does anyone have information / experience with the radio signals ? ADAC and Co. have many manufacturers or their systems classified as “unsafe”. Only recently Ford responded and announced in a short time to improve the keyless system and equip the keys with a so-called resting sensor …. as soon as a few seconds no “movement” (e.g. drop off at home) is registered, the key switches off the signal …

Hey, wanted to ask a few questions about your opinion here. Unfortunately I missed a small raised step when turning back at a blind spot today. Now I have demoted my rim and probably scraped the tire. Do you mean the rim can be repaired? I have no idea what is possible here, since I have never dealt with it. The rim costs original at Kia around 800 Euro and at a second manufacturer (original replica) 400+. At least the car dealer has these prices to me n year ago t. I then got the Ceed GT rims needed here in the forum. My insurance broker clarifies by tomorrow whether new tyres (should probably 2) would be covered by the insurance and what it looks like with my classification. As far as I know, there are no steps with my comprehensive (Austria VLV) and the liability is not possible anyway. Otherwise I have a free damage, which I do not necessarily want to use for such a thing. Will probably be a question whether the self retention is worthwhile or not t. 🙁 LG

The large navigator in my Kia Ceed GTline Mj23 does not show any traffic information. No traffic jams, no alternative routes. Nix. Whether I turn on traffic information in the settings does not make any difference. Unfortunately, this makes the navigator little usable. Had problems to activate Kia connect at first, but Workshop fixed this. Don’t see any error messages but information doesn’t come in. Does anyone have an idea?

Good morning dear KIA community, here’s a little observation that I want to share with you. Now that it’s a little fresher in the morning, you can see the smoke development behind the exhaust system. I noticed that when I stand behind the vehicle, the fog only rises from the left exhaust. Nothing comes from the right side of the system. So it looks like you don’t have a 2-toothed exhaust system at all for the inclined observer, so change as if that were a fake exhaust. I don’t know myself in the car technology now. Is this normal in the cold state? that there is only one exhaust line used first and then the 2nd one is switched on? always looks a bit strange. You also see it clearly in the return camera.

Moin Mein Kia Cee ́d SW Kombi (platform ED) 1.4L Gasoline DOHC 16V EZ082011 seems to lose cooling fluid. I would like to go to the workshop soon. About 4 weeks ago I filled it up with a little water, because it was just under minimum. Today I saw that the balance tank is almost completely empty. Down in the engine compartment it is also a little damp, but I am not sure whether it is oil or cooling liquid or maybe something else. If I now only W Asser refill, the water content would be quite high. So I wanted to mix it with coolant. Unfortunately, neither on the balance tank, nor in the manual, which coolant belongs in -.- Can any of you help me?

Hello all, I bought yesterday a used Kia Ceed SW 1.6 gasoline, 125hp. EZ is 03/2010, KM-Stand 61100. After completion of the purchase and transfer the ESP light (not ESP off!) went on permanently after about 15min. Beautiful shei*e! At the test drive the light was not on. Here is a photo. When I restart the car, the light is off again. This morning it went on again after about 20 min. Is this a known problem if necessary? What would be like a worst-case scenario If there’s something seriously broken, there’s a malfunction in the manual – that can be all… Thank you, many regards Mario
