Hello driving a 2013er Kia Ceed II with Emotion + Edition 7 package. The quality of the car is “horrifying” , after 15 months and 20 TKM yet not even a burned-out bulb ! I previously driven Opel (control chain , AGR etc. problems ) and VW (DSG , SUV etc. problems ) and will never do that again , moreover with a TZ at the German dealer 50% I repeat 50% cheaper than Astra and Golf ! German manufacturers unfortunately only live from your reputation and no more from the quality ! So a small “problem” I have but nevertheless with my KIA, after which I have rubbed the cockpit with a “dust flap” which was dry and clean were like “SCHLIEREN / KRATZER” on the cockpit, have tried to remove this with a damp cloth unfortunately these do not go away. How do you maintain your cockpit and by what means, someone still knows such problems and what can I do against it? Thank you MfG

Hello, for now 10 months I am also the owner of a Ceed SW ED. So far everything is great, my last larger project was the installation of a Hifi system. But this was very tough: For the first time I had to overcome myself very much, because it was much easier with my last vehicle, I was also 10 years younger and no small daughter had to be supervised during the installation. There were questions like “what is an engine etc. still funny”. That’s how it is with little children. So the cables are all lying, even if I’m angry that I haven’t found a better connection for the remote than ignition + on the rear side of the radio (terminal A place 6). Now the first question: Where do I get to remote current that only gives signal when the radio is on? It works like this, but I would prefer to turn off the radio, too, and not only when I turn off the car. The rear right brake disc would have a blue ring and a red ring would have to be changed relatively quickly but the same axle. Now I tried to make myself smart because I’m dissatisfied in the workshop bitel lately with the high prices etc. but have found no statement that says must be changed urgently. Does anyone have any idea about this? And then another question: If I turn off the car and forget the light Unfortunately, he doesn’t complain, so no biep biep or something. Is that normal? I’d rather he would make a report before I do some stupid things in the morning. So hope the whole thing didn’t get too long, and someone would like to deal with my woes. Many greetings Manu PS: Probably it is handled just like in other forums, unfortunately the search for my questions did not fit exactly, however, at least similar problems were there but not Same.

Hello, I have a Ceed Bj 2009 since October 2011. He always has a Macke, which no one has repaired so far: sometimes he starts nciht. He then rattles, but somehow does not ignite. Sometimes he can be persuaded, if you give gas to it, but sometimes not and I need 10 attempts until he decides to start. Then he is also full. In general he spins when the radio was still on or the climate, then he usually doesn’t make it. The whole is mi r since the purchase happened about 20 times. It is not dependent on temperature (in summer as in winter) and also not on the service life (sometimes happens 2 times a day). In the workshop the battery contacts have been cleaned and oiled, because this is probably a known Ceed problem. However, the problem still occurs. The battery itself is by the way i.o. In the large 40,000 inspection in November one did not mention my problem, one has found allegedly nothing. Yes, the problem occurs j a never on when a mechanic is watching Do you have an idea what it could be? Does that pay for the great Kia guarantee? Oh yes, for a while I even had the feeling he’s going to kneel at the intersection when I’m standing and the climate and the radio are on at the same time.

My Ceed now has 4500km down EZ 11/2014 and for some time now I have noticed a creaking / crackling while stopping. Almost exactly at the moment when the car finally stops and springs in squeaks or crunches it short. No high-frequency sound but rather a mixture of squeaking and knarzen/knarren. Man can minimize the Gräusch though by slowly slowing down the car very early and looking ahead and then quite slowly comes to a stop but then it is not quite away. Di e Recommendation to ask for the brakes once correctly did not make any difference, so on the BAB exit once correctly to brake from 100 to 0 (warning blink went on automatically..). Last time I drove 600km at a time after that the noise was not gone either. I know the creaking when you go very slowly with automatic from the brake and the car fights against the brakes. But this sounds a little different. It’s still a little squeaky in it. I was short last week He said “they all have more or less” and he doesn’t think it’s necessarily coming from the brakes, but he can’t say now that you just exchange or grease a part of it and then everything’s gone. I’m sure there wouldn’t be anything wrong with it, but if it bothers me I can leave the car there for a day and they would look for it. Then I made an appointment for next week, but I’m afraid I’m not going to be able to do it. I’ve tried to record the whole thing. Do you have such a sound too? I don’t think that’s normal because you can hear it from the outside and I don’t hear it from other cars at the traffic lights when I’m standing there as a pedestrian.https://youtu.be/xo6JT1sICGIhttps://youtu.be/nYB9O_PrZUQhttps://youtu.be/hkSMUyjGznE In addition, the front and rear brake discs. I noticed that after the few km (90% long distance, the rest of the city) I already had a If I drive my finger outwards over the brake disc, you can feel a small rise. On the front, however, there is almost no transition. Workshop master said they would not change much at the back now. On the front, the 40-50Tkm would hold and on the back, 20Tkm longer. Hope you can see anything at all on the video.https://youtu.be/XVQglYZ2dzY

Hello and good evening, I now drive a Kia and before that I drive a V… 2,0 / Diesel 136 HP. Now I belong to an older year with a lot of experience in driving a car. The Kia can be seen and let go. I like to skip a few hp and displacement. Saves money. Environmental awareness also plays a role. Mostly I drive alone to work or for two with a col. So what do you need a car, if it is used up 1 – 2 times a year, a lot of money costs And yet it’s not more reliable? Let’s take a look at the diesel prices. These slowly but surely slip towards super. (supply and demand) The taxes and maintenance consume the savings at the pump again. How do you see that? Are there cool computers among you? Electric cars are not a topic because of the prices. In anticipation of your answers With kind regards M.

Hello together. I’ve had the problem a few times now that with my ProCeed MY 24 the ISG at the traffic light has broken off on its own and the engine has started. I have now been browsing something in the operating instructions, all the conditions for a trouble-free work were given……had someone ever been ? Have mine since October 23, maybe someone can say something about it…. Thank you

Good morning, on my procedure there seems to have been increased oil consumption since the day before yesterday. I bought the car as a 2 year car and now drove 1000km. Everything is good. Now I drove on Thursday 250km. After 70km the warning light went low at oil level. But then I drove still finished and bought matching oil in parallel. Can happen. I then filled a total of 500ml and took a photo after 2h standstill. It was before filling exactly at the minimum and later maybe 2mm about it. Now I drove this morning and after 30km the lamp went on again. I find that strange. I go immediately when he has confessed a little look. But if the lamp concerns it will probably again be too little. My question is whether certain problems are known with the CRDI? In the workshop I have to go one way or another.

Hello together, this morning the Ceed SW PHEV showed the date from last Friday with a time of 18.34 o’clock… Also the manual switch off and again the GPS time did not improve. I then set the time manually. On the second ride this morning the car – I think only a short time after the start – showed a completely wrong time, which had nothing to do with the manually set time. The GPS time was still switched off. After the start of the race the time was off. hold the time again. Surprisingly… Greetings Kubi

Hello community, I want to get new black rims for summer on my green ProCeed GT, have mine since October 23 and the rims for winter are black and that’s how it looks really good. My dealer meant the rims that are on the summer tires so cost around 600€ per piece, can that be? Of course I’m not so presumptuous to believe that I get 240€, sell even only the rims, wanted to have a price approach. By the way, I want to buy these here: https://www.giacu zzo.com/…llfelgen-dream-line-black-gloss-5529?… Thank you for your assessment

Hi @ all! I drive a Proceed CD GT 2019 My standard “Qi” inductive charging tray is not worth its name. My smartphone (Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge) hardly loads, but it gets hot until the message comes that the phone is overheated and it has to cool down. A buddy also has the same problem in his Optima with inductive charging tray. What is it like with you? Charges your smartphone quickly without overheating? Greeting, Chris. 😉
