Moin Moin! We are talking about buying a new Rio in the household, but before we actually buy it or even invest the time for a test drive, something important has to be clarified. And that is: What about HiFi upgrade options? I would like to install a decent radio in this if a car is bought and also subwoofers, power amplifiers and good front sound speakers should not be missing. What about the installation options? DIN or Double-DI N? Connections? Cable connections from the battery to the interior? What speaker size in the doors? Insulation of the doors simple or complicated? After all, there is nothing to snort or scrape, even if I drive properly level. And: The car has standard daytime running lights. However, as I will not only drive on the highway, these must be switchable or disabled. Possible? Thank you for your help!

KIA Picanto SA 1.1 BJ 10.2008 Engine damage 17.200km run
Hello last Friday my Fr. had the car towed because the engine made loud noises. The ADAC Plus then towed the car to the next KIA dealer. At the month we learned from the KIA dealer that we have no claim on a rental car because we did not take the mobility guarantee. We found that already naughty. Today came the call that it is an engine damage. Costs about 500€. The car was registered on 19,05.2009 with 3 Year warranty. The 1 and last time was the car on 5.6.2010 for inspection. Since we are now 3 months about it inspection the dealer told us that it can no longer be billed about warranty but possibly about Kulanz. We are of course very disappointed. At Toyota we always got a write when the next inspection is due. As said the engine ran 17,200 km. KNABA 24329T752306 I have already read that there are problems with the Picanto engines. Wa s you mean to the whole thing??? Greetings Sven

Kia Picanto BJ. 2009 and ONLY problems
Hi! I have a very adventurous story for you and hope you can help me with it. Unfortunately I don’t know GAR by car and I have to go to the workshop tomorrow (again), so I wanted to hear some neutral opinions and tips in order to be able to talk with you (or to understand more about it) My Kia Picanto BJ. 2009 started already after half a year (and 6000km) to make clacking sounds at the dome. I was already familiar with problems with switching, by kicking the coupler in the empty gear (is that so? ) the gears then jump in again. So off to workshop, diagnosis: Everything good, no whistles/clagers to hear… only somehow the cooler fluid has slipped enormously under “L”, so you only refilled these and was good. So I drove on clacking and whistling. Then problems with winter tires (the thing was not even a year old): rusty nuts, brake pads All great, only cooler fluid had to be re-filled (again). Everything was nice! The inspection is now 2 months ago, I ran 11000km and since FR the following problem. Apart from the old well-known clacking and whistles the brakes make front, at low speed, snooze sounds (when braking) and I have the feeling that the car is not working properly. In addition, another (new) strange sound comes from the moror room, something metallic, as if any feathers were pounding against something or bounce off something and today, at the traffic light, the first course jumped out of me again and again. In addition, I have the feeling that the steering is more sensitive than usual, i.e. the car seems very restless to me. During the ride, however, the engine behaves very inconspicuously (i.e. on Kia type), no clackers, gluc Is that possible and explains the braking noise? Or can it be due to the tyre pressure or generally to the tires? It will hardly have the brake pads down after 11tkm, right? I’m curious about your theories and thanks in advance.

Discounts and delivery times Cee’d 2012
Hello forum community, I was now last week at my KIA dealer on site to make a test drive. so far so good, the car I like very well. Now I also let count and let me give more information about the delivery. What should I say, the seller is very nice and the relationship very good, however I was really surprised when he told me the delivery time of 4 months. Ok, that’s to be handled, then the car comes after the winter… differently then it looked at Prei There should be a discount of 8%, more is not included by KIA. Well, since I’m quite inexperienced in the car purchase I wanted your opinion, because I heard a report on the high discounts during the new car purchase on the radio this morning. Please don’t get it wrong – I don’t want to sound greedy but just know if it’s worth visiting another dealer or if I should expect similar results. 30km,… Thank you for your help, Koko

Kia Ceed 2009 Bluetooth dongle on USB interface possible?
Hi guys, I’m actually wondering why no one has ever asked for it. I use Spotify on my Apple Iphone. It’s great if I could pair the mobi directly via Bluetooth but unfortunately the radio in my 2009 Ceed doesn’t have Bluetooth, but a USB interface. Is it possible to connect a Bluetooth dongle directly to the socket? As far as the dongle has its own protocol, it should basically output the same data as a USB Sti ck? Can someone tell me something definite? Conjectures don’t help me here anymore Greetings and thanks a lot, Sebastian

KIA cee’d 2.0 CVVT – timing belts and more
Hello everyone! I have an offer for a used KIA cee’d 2.0 CVVT xR, BJ 2009 and I have two questions: 1) I have found no definite information regarding the change of timing belt, therefore: Can someone say with certainty at which intervals (years or KM) the timing belt is to be changed? 2) What should be paid attention to in general with a used cee’d? The last one I looked at, despite low KM performance, already had visible rust appearances on the chassis. hurry up the rear axle, is that normal at cee’d? Thank you!

Courage
Hello to the forum. I wanted to share my experience with KIA. In August last year I bought a KIA Rio year 2009, mileage 26000km. Regular inspections were made. On January 1, 2011 the warranty expired. Since after 3 years the vehicle has to go to HU/AU for the first time, I drove to TÜV in the middle of January. Running performance at that time 37000km. What was shocked when I learned that I had to present the vehicle again. Defects:front Querl With this small mileage!! Let KIA change for 250 euros. Since the guarantee had just expired and this was obviously a material error, I submitted an application for a culant takeover. Vehicle is not an imported vehicle, but was posing and registered for Germany. KIA Germany rejected Kulanz with the statement that the internal KIA culant guidelines were not complied with. A uf further demand, which part was not complied with, came the statement that only from a material value of 300 Euro kulanz is granted. Everyone can now think his own part about the material quality and the handling with customers. Greetings from Berlin Reinhard

LPG Ceed driver versus Kia (current status)
Hi everybody, now it’s me, the valve game can’t be set any more. Kia refuses all claims for the time being. You know all the stories from other contributions. But, in just a few cases, the outcome of the matter is described. What’s the point? How do the stories go out? Are you all satisfied with the first rejection of Kia? No, that can’t be, I don’t think so. I thought it’s worth it here in the thread just the actue ll describe the status of your cases (both ongoing and completed). This helps the others and, of course, at the moment also me to evaluate the procedure of Kia correctly. Please go for it !!!!! Greetings bitterlolli P.S. Who helps, will be helped !

Missing seat heating
Hello so where do I start, hmm best from the beginning. At first I didn’t want to dare such a young one but decided to do so because I had used a lot of pitch with older ones. I was with a colleague at a dealer, we talked and I also said that I definitely want to have seat heating. Well I tried the show car, and I really liked it. The dealer then told me how long it would take if I ordered and that was definitely v iel too long, because I need a car because of job. And mine was broken and didn’t want to put money in it. So we talked about the demonstration car he had only 1000 km down there and he should have the full equipment, so my colleague understood it too. Well, well, wait a few days, then I could pick him up registered, then in the evening I realized that the seat heating was missing, which was important to me. And he should have told me that or not? I know was a little blue-eyed but you don’t always try out all the extras, do you? Is my first car from the dealer and is so young. So I went the next day but he wasn’t there because they told me to come another day. Now my question is how are the chances that one still has to fit me without having to pay for what?
