After many years with a company car of German manufacturers, the purchase of a private vehicle will soon again be on my agenda. The Ceed SW has aroused my interest. I find it optically successful and 7 years warranty are a strong argument. In addition, the prices are not as excessive as with most other manufacturers. Since I have no experience with Kia so far: how is your satisfaction with the ceed ? Thanks for all the tips and experiences

Hi, I’m about to get the Ceed 2018 with DCT7 but here are a few questions about the switching/dome logic… My dad has a Q3 with DSG and this is the case with the brake kicked as follows: If brake slightly kicked up speed slightly and rolls off immediately because the clutch is already grinding slightly in the stand => Ergo bad for the Kulu Then I read that you should kick the brake a little stronger so that the DSG completely uncouples what it probably does because of the rotation fence. l identical to position “N”. Does anyone know if in this case the DCT 7 is really switched in neutral with both couplings closed without gear? Or is it like with the switch with kicked clutch (i.e. still pressure on the back plate and thus wear?!) What does the whole with activated autohold in D look like? Would that also like “driver stage” N not be put in gear and Kulu closed? I hope this is so far understandable, I just don’t want to make a mistake with the K and then annoy me when the DCT is in a bucket after 50000 km

Hello together! Since a short time I have the following problem (with DCT): For example, I stop at a traffic light and use Autohold. The car also stops nicely. Now it should go on, I give gas and then you can hear a loud noise (sounds almost as if the brake cheeks are not completely solved). Without Autohold this noise is not there. Does anyone have something similar?

Moin people, I hope I will be driving a Ceed SW MJ20 soon and the anticipation is already huge! Unfortunately, I don’t really know all about the rims/tire theme, but would like to buy him some new punches. With my 9 year old i30 SW this had always made a big difference! – Alu rims to winter bikes…. With the winter tires (steel rim) he looked really packy and with the aluminums I am certainly 5-6 times from people on the tank all the time I have now chosen the TA Dark 18″ with 45 ET by Dezent and according to the configtator, all this should fit in such a way and be non-intrusive. I’m just a little unsure, since there are always differences with 5 different rims/tire configurators, although this should be technically all the same. Would I be happy if one could tell me if this combination is so ok. Or rather 17″, because otherwise comfort is lost? r, that then always some effect is lost and the Ceed is already quite high anyway, although the vehicle itself is relatively low. Thank you.

Hey folks, my 11-month-old Proceed GT now has the first problem at 14TKM, of course, right now that I am dependent on the car, because I have to drive my terminally ill dog through half of Germany for treatments.The following: On Friday on the way to the animal clinic towards FFM I noticed that the climate no longer has any function and only “hot” air comes out, no matter what attitude. When I turned off the car, I noticed that the engine room space passenger side I am not sure if I also have a power loss at the final speed, but somehow there was not much left at 220km/h, but did not attach much importance to it. When I realized that with the heat, I then drove more slowly on the way back. So, the friendly ones in the surrounding area have of course no appointment available at short notice and the (top) dealer, where I bought the car is I’m going to present it to a Kia/Lada dealer tomorrow, who doesn’t have such a great reputation. But I’m very dependent on the car right now and if it’s a “little thing” (unlikely with my luck), he could fix it. I checked on Marderbisse but couldn’t find anything, the car is always in the garage. The first maintenance was carried out 2 weeks ago. What does the swarm intelligence mean here and how does it look guarantee-technically? from? Thank you so much, Marco

Hello! I have connected a Samsung Note 10 (before Note 8) via Android car. I have the problem with both MD Player and JetAudio Player that I can’t really rewind. If I hold the flip switch down to the right of the steering wheel, the current track will jump back 4-5 seconds. If I stay on it, nothing will happen. To rewind – say 20 sec – I have to skip the button, wait a few seconds and press it again longer. If I press the button again too soon, the track will be played from the beginning. Since I hear vilele audio books, this behavior is really frustrating. Do you have an idea how to do it better? LG

Hi together and happy new year for the first time! For a few weeks, my process at the front unfortunately sounds very unpleasant as soon as I start it or give it any gas afterwards. With the open bonnet you notice that the noise definitely comes from the area of the engine. It gets a bit better when the car is warm, then you hear it especially at low speed. I was once at Kia and these looked at it at short notice and could not detect anything as well as the sound generator excluded I’m supposed to report again, if it gets worse. I think it’s also subjectively more unpleasant, it runs pretty rough. But you can notice no differences in driving technique, it drives very well as always despite the cold. Is there someone here who knows the problem based on the video? It’s always hard to record something like that, even in the interior it sounds like an unround whirring or buzzing. Nevertheless, I will make an appointment with Kia, forgot about the procedure of the neighbour. n and it sounds completely quiet and round in the engine room. The car is about a year old and has only 8000km on it.

Hello, it has now happened the second time with my Ceed SW (2020’er model, approx. 8500km mileage) that all Assi systems have failed without any obvious reason. That would be: – Radar – Deadangle Assistant – High-light Assistant – Track Hold Assistant – Traffic Sign Recognition Both times the failure occurred immediately after exit from an underground car park. It is probably coincidence, but the error has not occurred yet, when I started from outside. the first time about 2 weeks ago, after about 20 minutes, all the systems were suddenly available again (but in the meantime they had already started again, that didn’t help anything). Yesterday again the same fun, here the error also survived the night, today’s excursion – only on the return trip (after approx. 100km of highway) the systems were suddenly available again during the journey. I realize that I have to use it to the Kia dealer. Since the inspection is due anyway, I will do the do But I’m interested in whether someone has experienced the same thing before and maybe even the error has been found? For the sake of completeness, both times best, sunny weather conditions, so no snow. Although only the radar fails in the case of snow and not all systems. Thank you for your feedback.

Hello together, I am looking for a new used car. I came across the Kia Ceed 2018 with the 1.4 suction engine with 100ps. Unfortunately I find hardly any reports here and would like to hear your opinion about it. What can you say about the engine in general? Is the reliable? What about the control chain? (have the koreans better in grip like the German ones?) The consumption with 7 liters is not without. Thank you in advance.

We are in Austria in the mountains and Kia reports me a too low tyre pressure on one side. Oddly the pressure is the same on the left as on the right. Depending on the altitude meter and temperature of the tyres it varies between 1,9 and 2,1 bar but still the entire left side is blinking. Can it be that the valve is frozen? Can I somehow reset the annoying blinking?
