  • 7 gear DSG noises

    Hello Together, Since October 2020 I am proud owner of a Kia ceed sportswagon with 7 gear DSG. The car has run 1200 km I noticed that when I change gear from P to R or D, as well as from again to R or P there is sometimes a cracking noise. Sometimes you don’t hear anything either. I also heard repeated clapping when I stop at a junction, and the gearbox from 3 to N switches. According to Kia workshop normal because it is an automated manual transmission Do you have these sounds too? Furthermore, only once the passage from P to Neutral was difficult to insert. Is that normal? I am very grateful for every information! Best regards

  • Ceed gt. steering wheel squeaks

    Hello together. I have my ceed gt now 6 weeks and after 700km the steering wheel began to squeak in dee gersdestellung. Did anyone ever do that? The friendly has changed the coil spring in the steering wheel because the one on the cladding would grind. and as was to be expected, did not change anything. Here’s a link, though not my same problem. https://youtu.be/BhXRoE0APbY The dealer is unfortunately a little unreliable and before I would like to get involved in new experiments I wanted to Let’s get your opinion and experiences.

  • failure radar, error message FCA and SCC

    Hello, last weekend it was a bit stormy and partly snowy. I was on the highway when it got quite wintery and it started to snow. The snowfall was at some point quite strong, but there was not much left on the road. After some time at weather-related speed 50 – 70 the radar was snowed in at the front, so that I got the message that the FCA (front collision warning) does not work, a little later came still the gleic he message for the SCC (Smart Cruise Control). It’s also logical, since this also uses the distance radar. Everything is OK, can happen in the weather. When I was at home, I released the front including the radar plate from the snow and started the car. Funny way I still got the same error messages to the FCA and SCC. OK, then wait until the next day. Tags on it: storm past, no snow, 5 degrees. Unfortunately still these messages. A short Fa The manual says that you have to contact the KIA service partner with these messages. My first thought: Yes great, now the radar broke because of such a bit of snow? That can’t be something. Anyway, I made an appointment in the workshop, which would then be next week. Today I was again briefly in the supermarket, and on the way back the error messages were suddenly gone. Did the car turn right and started again if the messages are actually gone: Yes, obviously everything works again. SCC works again anyway. So apparently it had to be found again after the snow was no longer on the plate. Of course I will delete the workshop appointment again, because the messages have disappeared. Maybe someone had an experience with the radar, e.g. in the case of snowfall?

  • Proceed CRDi MY 2020 – not available?

    Hello together, we are planning to buy a new vehicle. We thought of a Proceeded CRDi model year 2020 (with Mildhybrid System and DCT). Now comes a small excerpt from the story: A test drive was requested at Kia – no problem as far as getting a CRDi for testing is difficult, so we first drove a GT-Line T-GDI sample. After consultation with the dealer it is difficult to get a CRDi, because the vehicle is not so much asked and he would be so a car certainly not get in “in the near future” (vsl not at all). Again request at Kia – again no problem. Together with the really competent employee at the receiver he babbled together with me one car dealership after the other until we have come across two car dealerships, which have the potential vehicle available. Callback Auto dealership 1: vehicle available, but as exhibitor and not registered, so unfortunately no test drive possible. Callback Auto dealership 2: Proceed as This el? is no longer produced, there is a letter in this respect and he as a dealer can no longer order it. On the usual websites (mobile, autoscout, etc.) on which you can look at/configurate vehicles and then order it is also offered (with delivery time – ergo it would still have to be produced). Now my question: What about the statement of the Autohaus 2, is the Proceed CRDi with the Mildhybrid system really not built any more? Thank you already f I hope there will be many answers.

  • Kia ProCeed GT 2020 – Protective cap Minuspol battery

    Hello everyone, a hectic dark morning action, I gave an older lady a start aid this morning. Unfortunately I was not really under the hood until then and therefore on the safety flaps of the battery poles, so I was in the dark when blocking the road unfortunately a little force on the protective flap at the minus pole and made it cracks. Does someone have a clue, therefore, whether one gets the safety flaps already somewhere as spare parts ? Have up to now at the Google found nothing. Car as mentioned in the subject, is the ProCeed GT 2020, with which I am so far super satisfied! Thank you for your help and a Happy New Year.

  • automatic shutting down Smart Key ?

    Hello everybody, my GT has been standing in the garage for 1 week now and has not been moved since. Today I wanted to get something out of the car. Pushed the door button and nothing has done. Had surprised me already when going in into the garage, which he does not start with beeping.(Comfort opening tailgate) Even after repeatedly pressing the button on the handle no reaction. I already panicked because I thought battery was empty.And that with a new car … I wanted to start the K But I thought of it even more fortunately, which I also have a remote control … With this I was able to unlock without any problems. However, Smart Key still did not work. Only after several times closing/opening with the FB then also Smart Key worked again. Can this be that the Smart Key System shuts down itself with longer service life? Has someone ever happened like this? In order to have a manual ic However, it is not possible to find anything about this.

  • Ceed GT with DCT problems in sport mode

    Hi, I got a new Ceed GT with automatic transmission at the beginning of October. Since I’ve completed a few kilometers, I drove a little faster over the highway for the first time (approx. 180 to 200 km/h in sports mode). On climbs, the Ceed always switches back to the 6th gear, so that the engine turns very high – over 5400 revolutions. Even if I drive over the country road with 100 and in sports mode, the DCT always switches itself into the 6th gear. nter, if I have previously switched myself to the highest gear by rocker. Is that normal? I noticed that the DCT doesn’t turn on itself in the 7th – exception is on the highway, starting at about speed 130. I don’t know what I can do now. I usually drove in normal mode during the drive-in and have always warmed the engine and avoided high speeds. I think I have to bring it to the workshop. Does/Had someone else have the same problems mi t his Ceed GT?

  • Brightness level Temperature display Automatic climate control

    Greetings, Is the temperature of the two round knobs so bad for you during the day? I tried to raise the light level with the switch for the cockpit brightness, but with me I have the feeling that only buttons & switches around the cockpit become brighter or darker but the digital display of the temperature remains dark. At night everything fits and is well recognizable, but during the day you hardly have to look for 2 seconds longer welc he temperature is currently set.

  • Wifi button missing

    I bought the week my new Kia Xceed and am mega Happy. When setting up, I noticed the following problem. All Kia live services do not go (weather, traffic conditions etc. ) In the user manual it says that I should create a hotspot via my smartphone. I should go to setup and data/network settings then on Wifi —> but this button is missing. There is only UVO and Kia Live button but no Wifi button. I already wrote to the car dealership but so far no Antwo rt …resettet I’ve already done ….UVO app works, but the live services (like weather) don’t go … when I click on weather, the message “Connection to Kia Live Service is established” appears and then the message disappears without anything happening. Anyone the same problems or advice ?! Lg Steffen

  • Lateral underbody protection

    Hello everyone, I drive a Kia Proceed Bj 2020. Last Sunday we came back from HH and met on snow on the way home. Fortunately we also did not get up the mountain to our house. We reached the parking lot only after rooms of the road. The next day we went shopping and noticed a grinding noise during the drive to the supermarket. I looked and had to find out that both side underrun protections have loosened. to my Kia dealer. He took the car on stage and removed the remains of both underrun protections. It was clear here that there was ice here above the Unterfahrs. Then I got a KV over 624 euros. I asked if it was not covered by Kulanz. This was denied. I contacted Kia Germany. Here too it was pointed out that it does not fall under manufacturer warranty or similar. In my opinion, it can not be that Kia Germany is not covered. above the underrun protection can accumulate foreign bodies (in this case snow) and hold up the hand afterwards Kia. Then I should theoretically not move my car any more in the snow. Or I have to make an appointment in the workshop right away… Now I have signed up here to ask for your opinion or for similar experiences. Would I be very pleased about the answers to this… Thank you in advance
