    Hello, I don’t know if I’m right here, but I’m asking my question now: I have the following problem: Last week I was at the 4-year customer service/inspection with 51300 km. So everything was ok, ONLY I was told that: – the brakes front and rear, so complete brake cheeks AND disks are broken – BEING internal track rods have been knocked out. My question now: HOW can this be with 50000 km??????? 2 years ago with 26000 km bought used!) BUT how can it be in the short time that both internal track rods have been knocked out and also the brake discs are defective??? Do I have a chance to get accommodating from Kia kulantlich??? The inspection was made on 23.05.2013. It is here a Kia Ceed 2.0 ED Ez 22.01.2009, used bought in August 2011 with 26000 km. It is an automatic transmission and otherwise the car is top in schus s!!! I have not driven any terrain or extremely uneven routes such as forest paths or the like!!!! Anyone might know a advice for me????? Please answer soon because I am just quite perplexed…. in advance HEARTLY DANK!!! Greetings p.

  • Kia or Hyundai – this is the question

    Hello, would like to buy me a new car in the near future, now the question is on which. Would like to be a station wagon, cheap, inexpensive in maintenance, nice rich equipment and reliable. I would have chosen now: Hyundai i40cw (5-Star) and Kia ceed SW (DreamTeam). Stand still at the beginning, did not catch up with any test drive or offers, but would like to know in advance what you think of the two. Among my preferences with the car is technic schnicksc hnack, the more the better. Despite different classes, the two do not take much of the trunk volume. Will ask the question in the Hyundai forum.

  • Display only shows stripes!

    As you can see on the pictures, my display only shows stripes. Last week he did that before.. few seconds later it went on but then, that’s why I didn’t think about it. Today it stays with the stripes.. no matter which button I press! I think there will be nothing else left but to drive into the workshop.. unless someone has an idea what else I could do!? Thank you in advance.

  • Rear light cracked (Facelift)

    Hello guys, unfortunately I damaged the rear light cover yesterday at my Stinger (back right). The plastic is broken and a small gap (1x1mm) is visible. Maybe you know if the plastic alone (i.e. only the Celon) can be bought as a spare part? (I’m afraid it’s not :-). Maybe someone knows where to move isch there priceably…? Thank you very much! Greeting josef

  • Display Driving Modes

    Hello together, when I change the driving modes (Eco, Sport, Sport+) etc. I call up the setting that I should be able to see the visualisation of the vehicle on the display, the display of the vehicle looks strange (see Appendix). For other Stingern it looks different… Do you have an idea what this can be about or does someone have the same representation? Thank you!

  • Brake wear limit

    Hello together, A question to the Stinger connoisseurs: Does our Stinger actually have a brake wear limit indicator in the cockpit that reminds you of the brake change in time? Thanks for your answers. Mfg

  • GPF lamp, increased consumption and poor engine run (3.3l)

    I had an interesting experience earlier. When I was speeding through the highway there was a short jerk, which I thought was first for switching up. Then I noticed from 200 off that a little power was missing, so roughly 100hp, and a yellow lamp glows, which looks a little like steam ironing. I thought that this was probably some lamp from the particle filter. After that the jerk was reproducible when accelerating through at about 4000 revolutions, at least on the Highway. On the next occasion I stopped for a short time to verify my guess regarding the importance of the lamp with the manual, but did not turn off the ignition. I was already off the highway anyway, on the way home and then drove the rest of the country road in sports, so that it remains over 1500 revolutions. I noticed that the engine developed a quite pronounced partial trucking and developed a quite considerable thirst In sport at around 2000 turns with Tacho 56 he wanted about 20l/100km. Whether the performance was still full is hard to say, but he still felt attracted to normal. I had already agreed that probably to have to address during the inspection next week, but wanted to check the oil level one way or another. So at the gas station around the corner stopped and checked, then ignition completely switched off. Oil level was ok. After starting the GPF-L ampe away, the motor run normal and the consumption at constant drive in the inner place again normal. I’m curious if that happens again or if the good only swallowed up. Has anyone ever experienced something similar?

  • Decision-making Sportage

    hello to everyone, I would like to buy a kia sportage and have some questions: – is the 2.0 l engine with 136 identical to the one with 184 ps? means: is it only a modified software or are other components on the engine like turbo etc different? you feel the extra power or is the 184 ps variant a paper tiger? – I couldn’t test a variant with the automatic transmission. how did it turn on? is it a relatively new construction? how high is the multiverb also compared to the switch? – I thought the tested car (2.0l diesel 136 ps manual gearbox) on the highway seemed quite noisy. can you create some kind of assistance by e.g. insulation material in the doors or similar? – what do I have to keep in mind? desired config is: sportage 4×4 automatic 184 ps in spirit equipment with full cabin except panaorama roof and automatic parking function. thank you for your comments

  • Liefedrzeit Kia Sportage

    Hello, there is someone here in the forum who can tell me how long the delivery time for a Sportage GT-Line with all packages is. The dealer speaks of currently about 4 weeks. On the Internet I read from 6-7 months! What is right now? Maybe there is someone here who just got a new one, or an insider who can give me information. Thank you and have a nice weekend.
