  • Poor braking performance Proceed GT

    I have been driving a new Proceed GT, MY22 for 2 months, with currently 2000km of driving power. From the beginning I feel the performance of the brake, better to say the bad pressure point, as unfavorable. You can dose the braking power poorly, or only with more powerful pedal pressure. A strong full braking is no problem, but the brake feht the “bit”. The braking power is felt too late at too strong pressure on the pedal. For comparison I have a Ceed CD MY22 with the 1.5T motor u and a Ceed GT test and the two vehicles have a much better brake to be dosed. In the near future I have a workshop appointment with the dealer to analyze the problem. The brake discs are subjectively considered all uniformly “deployed” without abnormalities. The pedal pressure/hardening with the motor switched off is also available immediately after pedaling to test the membrane of the brake power amplifier. What could be the cause? Poorly ventilated braking system ? Maybe a software adjustment, because the assistants also access the brake? Or does the Proceed GT generally have a weak brake without a good dose “bit”?

  • Ceed SW CD brake discs worn after 45,000 km

    Hello, I got my Kia Ceed SW EZ 03/19 from the inspections today. There I was informed that the front brake discs have reached the minimum strength and have to be changed soon. However, the brake lining still has a good 60 per cent strength. On my objection that the vehicle has just run 45,000 km and still the first brake pads on it are but the discs must not be broken at all the mechanic has not entered any further and has already given me the If the brake pads were down, I could understand that, but I’m new to the discs far ahead of the brake pads. I’ve looked at them at home and it’s true that there’s a decent degree on the edge, so that the discs are finished. But I can’t and I don’t want to accept that. That would mean that this is the least-valued material installed as brake discs. I don’t think that there is anything about the brake system, otherwise the brake pads would have gone off first. I don’t want to paint what the cost for me is every time after 40 percent brake lining wear to have the complete brakes replaced for just under 500 euros. Do you think it would make sense to contact Kia for material errors or something like that? I’m of the opinion d as something like this must not happen, and since I have no influence on it the guarantee should actually take hold. I know that braking though wear parts are but am the opinion that the discs would have to last far longer than the coverings. It is a Ceed SW 1.6 diesel with 136 hp and double clutch transmission.

  • Display Radio Sender Logo

    Hello together, I started to create a list of favorites on the radio today. I noticed that I only get the logo on the display with a few radio stations. Most of them show me only a “grey microphone picture” instead of a transmitter logo.(Whether DAB or FM) How is that with you? On the radio stations, it shouldn’t be. My friend drives a Skoda Octavia, with him all stations logos are displayed.Whether DAB or FM.

  • Delivery date April, news?

    Hello, my Proceed GT should come in April, now I asked the dealer and he said he has nothing specific in the system. So no specific delivery date. Has someone also delivery date April or even March and can report when his car comes or came.

  • Proceed Ambiente Light

    I need an answer again, dear forum. My process has this red footroom lighting. It lights up even when you get in. Now I have found in the settings a hook “Ambiente Lght”, which was not set at all. For the sake of spasms I did it then, but I can’t notice any change. Now I ask myself: what is the difference? hook out – hook in? danek you

  • Retrofit 12V can and USB in trunk

    Good evening together, I would like to upgrade a 12 jack in my procedure and separately a Usb jack in the trunk. The predecessor Ceed had the still standard and especially during holiday trips was always very practical for the rear row of seats. I have already found suitable bushings incl. fuse. Just ask me if I have to have the cigarette lighter from the front or if there is still 12V at the rear? Has anyone done this before and has a tip? Shouldn’t it fit if I’m still up front with the stuff? Thank you in advance for greeting me.

  • 2021er XCeed AHK install itself….Experiences?

    Tach together, here’s the next question. I need an AHK, it’s supposed to be a removable Westfalia. Has anyone ever installed it themselves? If so, does the E-set have to be up to the A-board or just the trunk? Does something have to be learned afterwards? If yes with on-board equipment or only with software possible? And what does the warranty say with that? I know….let the dealer install….but I’ve done it 3 times and I can do it…..from time to time there are screws j a also fun. Would only like to order one before I have clarified the questions above, not that for some reason I need an Ori. from the dealer. Thank you in advance.

  • Which car for twins?

    For half a year I have the new Rio and my wife the Ceed. Now we expect twins and have to separate ourselves from one of the two cars. Does anyone have an idea which car is suitable for twins ? It doesn’t have to be a Kia although I am very satisfied.
