Hello together, since our small Saarland meeting was so fun we planned on 02.08.2020 an exit with our Stinger’s in the Palatinate and wanted to let a few other Stinger drivers share it. The tour starts about 20 km away from Pirmasens and is a round tour of approx.170km. The tour leads us through the beautiful Pfälzerwald on partly narrow and curvy roads where we can move our cars also in a way. With about half of the route is a Pau We hope that we will get a fresh boost in order to get the rest of the route over with pleasure. After the tour we can then go to dinner together and finish the day with gas talks. Due to the clarity of the group we wanted to limit the number of participants to max. 8 Stinger. So if you are interested, please enter in the list. Start time of the tour is planned for 11:00. The participants then receive data with the address from the starting point via PN.

Hello together, wanted to change from ProCeed to Stinger in 2019 or 2020. Can anyone give me information about service?

Servus people, I’ve now rewinded with my Stinger 5500 km am also very satisfied so far. Only what is noticeable from time to time is that after a full-gas tour (motorway max speed, strong brakes) it starts extremely stoking around the car. It smells night burnt plastic. It definitely comes from the front left, would even say it’s the brakes. I’m more the cozy driver and front the car in the rarest cases. So highway always around 120 to 140 and rarely times full g As a result, my question, is it normal or rather abnormal? Does anyone have the same experience? At higher speeds the cat gets warm and can produce smells, I know. But that’s new to me. I’ll call my dealer tomorrow and make an appointment.

Hello in the round, someone is known if and if so from when the current Singer (D/EU versions) will be delivered with the new KIA logo. Have seen it so far only in videos in the USA. Mine not the E logo, but that new brand logo of KIA (no longer as plum). Ggfs. also rear view with the wide Stinger lettering series ? Thank you.

Hello together, I’m just about to buy me a Stinger in the next few days. But what confuses me is the thing with the exhaust or the tailpipes. On many pictures in Google it can be seen that the tailpipes or the aperture is larger than with other Stingern. Now my question is, does anyone know if there is colorful shoot ? Thanks in advance Stephan

Hello all, it is my first post or my first question on Motor-Talk. Therefore, please forgive me if I did something wrong when creating this post. Well, yes. to my problem (if you can call it a problem): I ordered a Kia Stinger from the dealer a few months ago. By calling me on my part, I was also confirmed that it arrived. But since my current car is not leaving until October, the takeover of the Stinger in October will also be This was also agreed with the dealer. So far everything was good! As already mentioned, the Stinger arrived at the dealer. I called and asked if it would be possible spontaneously to look at the car. Was not a problem at all. After the work evening got into the car and with great anticipation to finally be able to see my new car, drove to the dealer. Of course with the idea in mind that the Stinger is still nicely packed or the foils from the seats I didn’t have to remove it yet. I would love it…. Arrived at the dealer and saw directly that the Stinger ordered by me is in the showroom as an exhibition vehicle. All the slides are already removed and accessible to everyone. At the first moment I didn’t care, because I was so focused on the car. After about 30 minutes back in the car and home. On the way home I remembered that this was not really possible. I was glad that the Stinger didn’t go outside on the But I don’t think it’s okay that he’s there as an exhibition vehicle. I called again quickly and asked her to close the vehicle. I was also kindly confirmed that they’re going to do this. But don’t make it any better either, since I don’t know how long the car was already standing in the showroom at the dealer’s door. Now my question to you: How do you see it all? Is that all right, that a car ordered by me as a Exhibition vehicle serves or can the dealer by car, as long as it is not in my possession, do what he wants? Thank you in advance for your answers. EDIT: It is a leasing vehicle.

Hello, my wife had quit her car insurance in 2018 and since then, three years of car insurance has run through her father as a second car. It’s only about a pure liability for a approximately ten-year-old VW UP. After the contribution has increased by almost 50% without damage since 2018, we want to make use of our special notice right now. Unfortunately, we no longer have any documents from my wife’s pre-insurance insurance until 2018 and do not know which SF-Class they are there at that time. SF 6. I mean there was at the beginning some special agreement for the initial classification and probably she can be transferred by her father from there only SF 3 for the three accident-free years or? How about the SF class she had with her pre-insurance until 2018? Can one then calculate the plus the transfer of the SF from the father? Thank you for your help!

Servus people, short question, does any of you have a whistle at the windows from 220 km/h? With me it was only the driver’s side, also had an appointment in the workshop. They heard it, found nothing. The seal was cleaned again and everything was greased again. It was better but sometimes still listen, even from the right window especially if you drive a long curve on hissed it in. If you just drive out you hear nothing from all that. Did you ever attach a file to it? If someone had something like that, it was fixed for you if what was done? That I can share that with my workshop. Thank you very much.

Hello forum, for my Stinger a full finish with the paint protection film from Suntec was allowed. Apparently one has to live with some air bubbles (possibly go away with time) and isolated inclusions. However, on the rear thrust bar there is a small crack in the foil, which – if you can see it white – also in 3 meters distance. Also with it you have to live. Also at the back left is a white line under the foil (a scratch on the paint can not be). You might still be alive. The foiler will follow many Porsches and Lamborghinis and I can’t imagine it being accepted like that. What’s your opinion? Should you accept it like this or insist on repairing it?

If my Stinger had sold in the fall of 2020, but couldn’t stand it anymore with the Optimakombi with 180 hp and now has a brand new Stinger with 366 hp. One question, if it has already been discussed, please point out to me. I mean to notice a considerable difference between my old Stinger (Bj 2017) and the current one: The acceleration is good but not for a long time as with the old one. It will not be the case with the 4 hp, perhaps due to the r Change of the pollutant class from G to F? Or is it due to the 5,000 kilometers driven? Will there still be something unlocked) Or am I just wrong? Thanks for your answer, always good driving, best regards, your SiF
