  • Lancia Ypsilon 9/200 blower doesn’t work?? First level 4, now nothing more?

    Good morning to all participants! My Ypsilon 60Ps has the following problem: When buying last year, the blower switch only went to level 4 And since a few days, the level 4 doesn’t work anymore, no more blower motor function. Since the radio, cigarette lighter, etc. goes, I don’t think the blower has its own fuse alone, does it? Is the switch possibly defective? Who knows advice?

  • Kia Sorento JC “Cracking up to 70 km/h

    Hello all, I changed both wheel bearings, wheel hubs, tyres and brake pads at my Kia Sorento (2008, 170 hp, 2.5 diesel) at the front. On the right side everything is good, but on the left side it feels as if a tooth is slipping through the drive shaft from time to time. But only up to 70 km/h, after that everything is quite normal and it rolls top. But if I come back under the 70 km/h it runs “unround”. I put myself under it again and looked at it. All screws are fixed, drive shaft It’s just as deep in the hub as on the right side and the central nut is tightened with torque. When the car is warm you notice it stronger than when it is cold. That wasn’t before the change on the left side. Someone an idea what that could be? Thank you very much and greeting Dennis

  • Battery Power consumption

    Hello together, I would be interested in the power consumption of the Kia Ceed SW Phev times. I charge mine on a wallbox and unfortunately have no extra counter. If the battery is on 0km (20%) and is charged, how much kWh does it pull then? Oh and by the way a small question. Mine is now 7 days old and has already a small stone blow on the bonnet (photo) . How would you treat it?

  • XCeed – Wheels in 8.5J width and ET40

    Hello, someone drives on their XCeed rims in size 8.5Jx18 ET40 with the tire size 235/45R18? Alternatively also in 17, 19 or 20 inch, the most important is the width with 8.5J and ET40. Is there a lot of effort in the rim width to get enough wheel cover on the front and/or rear axle?

  • Navi Update

    Hello together, I’m new here and we’re considering buying a Ceed SW or an XCeed for next year. Our thoughts also go towards EU reimport. Since the map update is not included in these vehicles, here are my questions: – what might be a map update – it’s a TomTom, can you do it yourself? I thank you for your answers and I’m also happy about vehicle reports ?? [translated from engine talk from the topic ‘Naviupdate’.]

  • Learning RDKS ?

    Hello together, I own a KIA PRO CEED GT Bj. 2019. If I understand this correctly, the car has a passive RDKS system (the sensors are installed in the ABS system). Does this system also have to be learned if I get new rims with tires in the exact size? Thank you for your answers. Best regards

  • Tacho Accuracy

    Hello, I noticed today that the speed indicated by the vehicle is basically exact the GPS speed. I just wanted to see how far the speedometer is moving forward, but then the first measurement result coincided with the speedometer. We then installed several apps on my girlfriend’s smartphone and always the same result. An app even showed decimal places and showed a deviation of 0.4 km/h. The speedometer therefore goes minimal Can it be that a tacho is so precise? Is that so with you? By the way, the measuring window was between 20 and 130 km/h.

  • Right headlamp must be replaced according to ATU for about 2000€

    It is the car of an acquaintance. Your Ceed has to be by the TÜV and the right headlight causes problems – especially the daytime driving light. Here is a photo, on which you can see that the LED light strip on the right side is less bright than on the other side. Everything else seems to work wonderfully. At first it was said that only the daytime driving light had to be replaced. However, the employee of ATU then informed her that he held consultation with KIA I’m looking online for headlights for KBA No. 1260 (2.1) ACV (2.2) starts the list at 150€ and there are many spare parts up to 350€ but also some that are even more expensive. I wonder, however, how ATU could demand 2000€ here, that’s not in any proportion for me – especially because that means almost an economic total damage for them. I wonder, however, how ATU could demand 2000€. Also, why the LED strip cannot be replaced separately (this was first suggested to her, but does not work now). These would be cheaper again. I am confused myself, because as spare parts both the round illuminants and the LED strip are displayed – what of it is actually the daytime driving light? I recommended her to visit a free workshop and get advice there. A guarantee has the car na ch 8 years no longer (it would have been 7) and an employee of KIA (I think of a workshop) wanted money to make an effort at all to regulate the bulwark. It must also be mentioned that the car was involved in an accident (not caused by itself) a few months ago after, among other things, the left headlight was replaced. At that time, the right was certified by an expert report to be fully functional.
