  1. The springs on your vehicle are calibrated specifically for it, based on the number and weight of extras installed during its manufacture. Numerous forum entries indicate that owners who have installed aftermarket springs often find their vehicles either too elevated or insufficiently lowered compared to the appropriate stance with OEM components. In response to your inquiry, they are indeed a respected company; nevertheless, for a little additional cost, I would recommend acquiring the appropriate components, particularly if you want to retain the vehicle. Have you inquired about a discount from the dealer? - Consider contacting MB Grangemouth, since it may be worthwhile.
  2. The only source for the appropriate springs is the dealer; aftermarket springs are a "one size fits all" solution. Your springs are customized to your vehicle's specific choices, as indicated by the colored bands on the coils from the factory. Purchase the appropriate items in a set; failing to do so may incur long-term costs.
  3. Refrain from referencing the conflict!
  4. While this was the situation, vehicles shipped in the latter part of the previous year and beyond were equipped with the latest software, making USB updates unfeasible. I infer that the USB upgrade is no longer necessary. It is hoped that some individual possessing a recent 2024 - 2025 vehicle may provide confirmation.
  5. The Kia Connect app does not provide average miles per gallon, and to my knowledge, it never did. I am unable to address your question about the over-the-air upgrades; I disabled mine, but you were required to do so early last year.
  6. MP3 files may be played directly from it; maintain a basic file structure since navigation will occur via the head unit display. All track data should be shown on the screen during playback.
  7. Mine has an SD card adapter filled with a substantial amount of music, far exceeding the native HDD space. However, the majority of my music is streamed via an Apple Bluetooth adaptor from my phone.
  8. Thank you for the suggestions; silver is not my preferred shade, therefore I am uncertain whether to choose black or carbon. Based on my understanding, removing the wrap will not damage the original trim, correct?
  9. Disenchanted with the wooden inside and want to cover it in black. Which of the three would you recommend, or is there another option you have tried?
  10. My estimate is 50% of the cost I am incurring for my BMW 330d M Sport.
  11. I will get an insurance quotation, and it will be as it is.
  12. I am considering two distinct 2022 2.0 GR Sports models. One has the older Connect Multimedia, while the other incorporates the modern Smart Connect. I only use CarPlay in a vehicle, so I am unconcerned with the older system's latency or sluggishness. However, are there any distinctions in sound quality between the old and new systems? This will be a determining factor for me.
  13. Forscan is available for free download, with the first two months of the extended licence at no cost; the annual extended licence is priced at £11.93. When I attempted to access the tire sensor module, it prompted me to purchase the extended licence.
  14. I have not yet progressed to checking the power at the relay. I assume I can remove the relay to test the pins, or is there an other technique to do this?
