Hello, today I had my car at the TÜV and thought that they wanted to fool me. After my 3 year old Stonic passed without problems 4 weeks ago it was called today – NO! The values of the brake were everywhere in order. But optically it did not like the examiner at all. Serious lack. No badge. KIA wants for the renewal with ATE 500 Euro. At Pitstop there is ATE for 265 with installation.

Squeaking while steering
Hello, I’ve had a Kia Ceed SW 1.5 MY22 Gold Line (Austria) for about 6 months. I’ve noticed the last few days that a squeaking sound arises when I steer. Can’t define it more precisely where it comes from, it usually comes from when I park or at intersections. First I only heard it when I turned left, now the sound is audible when I steer to the right. The sound sounds like squeaking rubber boots. Can the squeaking come from the cold temperatures, currently – 7 to -12 degrees? Or is this a known problem with Ceed? This is my first Kia, so I ask.

Resetting radar at lowering?
Hello, I plan to lower my ProCeed GT (BJ 2020) with 30mm lowering springs. I asked my KIA workshop as well as a free workshop about the costs. Of course, the free workshop is a bit cheaper, but I was reminded that after lowering it will be necessary to adjust the radar of the distance tempomate. This would cause additional costs. Does anyone have experience with this topic?

OilCatchCan (OCC) in the GT
Greetings, the Sufu brought zero results. Has someone already installed or installed such an OCC in the GT and how are the experiences with it? I have 2 of them installed in my Focus 1.5 EB and what kind of scmodder is neat, one of which I have modified additionally. If the car were to be installed in a new way, the question is therefore what kind of experience there is. MfG

Part of the exhaust makes noises, what is it for?
Hello guys, at the end of the rear silencer top is such a funny sheet metal screwed on. That makes me extremely noise. Did it once unscrewed after that was quiet. Does anyone know what this sheet metal should be for? I don’t end up using it. An image in the appendix. Thank you,

Sign recognition / cruise control
Hello dear Kiafriends, I’m currently driving a Ford Focus, but in half a year a new service car is due, and I love it with a Kia Ceed SW. I have a question about the adaptive cruise control in connection with the sign recognition: Does the cruise control operate in a predictive manner with a winch limit? Or is it like Ford? At Ford, the Focus drives past the sign and then lights the brake parachute. Very annoying and not forward looking. he’s solved?

Test drive: Poltern/Holpern give off the gas
Hi, yesterday I had a test drive of about 1h at a Kia dealer. The car was a Kia Ceed GT-Line (160ps) with automatic circuit. In itself the car was very promising, only one point I noticed, where I would like to have your assessment. This is the first car with automatic and this PS number I drove, accordingly I wanted to test the following. If I gave strong gas from the stand, came from the front wheels. “Holpern”, as if something were going through (not freaking out, but right punches). After the test drive, of course, I asked the dealer. We drove again together a few times out of line and he said that this would be normal, respectively, that these are probably the wheels that are going crazy. Unfortunately, I couldn’t record a video with the sound, otherwise I would have made it available to you. Unfortunately, I don’t really have much experience with different cars, but the previous ones I drove, just squeaked and didn’t hit so hard when I was spinning the tire. Is this normal? Normally I shouldn’t give so much gas, of course, that the tires are going crazy at all, but even if I did, I would assume that the tires will be damaged at most. But this sounded rather like the vehicle could be damaged directly.

Kia Pcanto BA brake calipers rear
Hello! Daughter has a 2004 Pcanto 1100cm3 65 hp with the usual braking problems on the rear axle (spin already hard, handbrakemymic every few weeks) so that I have decided to install new brake calipers. Now my problem: With all me known spare parts dealers are no brake calipers to find. Stand in the catalog, but are always not available. What can this be? Customer threatens with order? Does anyone know a source? With happy greetings: Rostklfeifer

Inaccurate fuel display Kia Rio 1.4
Now that I’ve filled up almost 2,000 kilometers with my 1.4-kilometre spirit gasoline tanker, I’ve noticed the following very negatively: As soon as the residual range display of my on-board computer has fallen below the 50-kilometre mark and shows only two strokes in the display, Pi also starts to light up the tank indicator and that, although at this time I just drove 380 – 400 kilometers. I have now had it escalated and the Rio filled up two lines under the lowest tank marking subjectively “empty”. Sweatingly arrived at the gas station, I then filled the Rio Press up to stop and just filled 34,5 !?! liters Super. According to Kia, the Rio has a tank volume of 43 liters, that would mean that the tank display already at 30% of the remaining content. jumps Is this normal and can you possibly adjust something like that? The float is fixed in the tank in m. W., you can not have a lot of play when you install it. How are your experience with the accuracy of the tank indicator and when do you usually refuel? After warning light or after level indicator? How many kilometers do you create with your 1.4 Spirit gasoline? Greeting, Clark

Picanto brakes when it’s really warm
Hello! Please excuse my foreign language already in advance. I have an annoying problem with my dear Kia in the second year. Was already in 2 workshops, but no Kia workshop, because the next one is so far away. I hope you can help me. The problem only occurs with heat. That’s why I thought it would be related to the air conditioning. In addition, the problem only occurs with longer driving and constant speed. Dan When I go home from work and it’s more than 20 grand, it always starts from the same motorway bridge. First I always told the mechanics that the car wouldn’t pull any more. Then, after 1 year, my new brake pads had to be replaced because they were completely blank and we realized that the car was braking. Then the brakes were all built around and thoroughly cleaned up… The braking was always over last summer, when I stopped and started again. In the meantime, it doesn’t help anymore. But it always stops after a while from one moment to the other again! No noises it doesn’t matter! Other things in the driving behaviour I find funny, but they probably have nothing to do with it: when I turn on the air conditioner it jerks 1x Sometimes the car gets louder for 2min and jerks back. elt something please help us…. Will my little racer still drive for a long time! Thank you very much in advance!
