  1. There appears to be a communication issue among the Car, the KIA Servers, and the App. The vehicle utilises a SIM card, similar to a mobile phone with a Vodafone connection. Issues may arise when traversing regions with inadequate mobile reception. Similar to a mobile device, when a legitimate signal is absent, the car may engage 'Emergency' mode and thereafter become immobilised in that condition. The sole remedy I have discovered is to undertake the following, but exclusively in an area with adequate mobile reception. Upon successful completion, it is probable that this task will not require repetition. 1. Reinitialise the head unit to facilitate the SIM's reset and reconnection. To accomplish this, with the vehicle running, insert a pen nib or a comparable object into the little aperture adjacent to the volume control. Allow the infotainment system to reboot. Verify if the vehicle has a signal. In the upper right corner of the infotainment display, there is a little 'Kia' emblem accompanied by mobile bars indicating connection strength. If there is no signal, relocate to an area with superior reception. 3. From the main screen of the infotainment system, navigate to 'KIA Connect' and then select 'KIA Connect Settings'. Press [Reconfigure] and await confirmation of the connection. 4. Restart your mobile device and attempt to use the application again. If unsuccessful, I recommend uninstalling and reinstalling the application. I trust this will be effective for you.
  2. It is gratifying when a vehicle passes its MOT without any advisories.an additional 12 months of enjoyable driving
  3. Consider Amazon, as they occasionally have promotions.
  4. https://www.autobulbsdirect.co.uk/
  5. The light appears to be malfunctioning. Please examine this for fitting and related details. Additionally, a commendable company to engage with. When I needed to replace mine on the W211, I purchased Osram.
  6. I have a 2024. I adore it. Following the adjustment of the recall settings, she operates exceptionally well. I could not be more content.
  7. It is raining heavily. However, it appears that I am unlikely to obtain the solution without venturing outside; I have seen online that a Bosch 1987435160 filter is compatible with both vehicles, as well as most modern Kia and Hyundai models. I have ordered a pair for £28.28 total on eBay, inclusive of delivery, should anyone be interested. Gratitude to everybody who responded.
  8. Is there anyone who knows the manufacturer of the original filters?
  9. Both vehicles are approaching three years of age, hence I believe it is time to repair the pollen and cabin filters in our Sportage and EV6. I am not inclined to pay Kia dealership pricing; thus, could anyone suggest a provider of authentic OEM parts, as opposed to those that merely assert compliance with OEM standards? At one time, a Kia dealership offered parts on eBay at significantly lower prices than the Kia recommended retail price, from which I purchased items for our prior Kia. However, I can no longer locate them!
  10. Your local MB Service department often provides a printed report of the completed work for clients.
  11. The individuals I am acquainted with who possess electric vehicles, predominantly representatives, typically charge to 80% but will charge to 100% if they anticipate a lengthy drive the following day. Similar to my internal combustion engine vehicle, I often invest fifty or sixty pounds in fuel; but, for a journey to Hull, I require a full tank.
  12. What would be the solution for it to operate on all fours?
  13. What happens when the cylinder head reaches elevated temperatures? In my small expertise, I assume the surface gets uneven and it does not sit level in the engine because its aluminium. The head is machined to provide a flat surface; this is my interpretation of re-phasing. I am uncertain whether I used the correct term. Thank you
  14. Greetings, Possess a 2011 Chevrolet Captiva LTZ 2.0 diesel. The vehicle overheated and ceased operation. The head gasket was damaged and replaced. The cylinder head was re-phased prior to the installation of a new gasket. Once done the automobile has fully lost power. The vehicle is incapable of ascending a slope. What could be the issue and what is the solution? Thank you.
  15. I consider the automatic headlight system on my Hyundai to be absurd. While driving under a tree in the noon heat, the headlights activated. None of the vehicles equipped with this feature exhibit this behaviour. I have not driven the Tucson much so far, but when it accelerates and decelerates abruptly, it resembles flashing the vehicle ahead of me! It frustrates me immensely when it occurs!!! :ROFLMAO: Have you used both Google Maps and Apple Maps in the same location? If not, ascertain if they do the same action. The issue may stem from insufficient screen contrast, resulting in unclear visuals under certain settings. I am uncertain if night mode serves any use beyond changing the backdrop to black or reducing the screen's luminosity.
  16. Despite having had many Hyundais, each have characteristics that rendered them less than ideal. In this instance, it pertains to the reduction of brightness on the navigation screen under suboptimal conditions. My 2018 Sonata included blue backlighting on all its buttons, which rendered them illegible under certain lighting conditions—attributable in part to my vision and in part to the low contrast between the blue light and the silver backdrop. I have observed that the auto headlight control on my 2024 Tucson is quite sensitive; passing into a shadow activates the headlights, subsequently causing my dashboard and screen to go to nighttime mode. I was considering disabling the automatic headlights; have you contemplated increasing the dashboard and screen brightness to 100% on such days? I'm uncertain whether it would be beneficial. Consider a solution, akin to disabling the auto stop/start feature at the beginning of a journey.
  17. Most devices provide an automatic day/night mode with an option to override either setting. Automobiles often possess the capability to adjust the brightness levels of the dashboard and display using a knob or similar mechanism on the light control. Could it be that the screen brightness is set too low for certain conditions? I keep my dashboard lights dull for nighttime, but when the vehicle detects "darkness" (perhaps in a shade), it activates the headlights and reduces the brightness of the dashboard/screen. I lack navigation in my vehicle other from Google Maps; nevertheless, the dashboard does dim, and the screen may be independently adjusted in a 2024 Tucson SEL using the touchscreen.
  18. Possibly a typographical error; it may refer to 2007.
  19. yes w4rlock I don't understand what is happening
  20. The lights remain on until the car enters sleep mode.
  21. I am curious to know if anybody else has had a similar experience. When I lock my car, the rear lights remain on in the higher area, as seen in the picture. Initially, I considered the possibility that this may be related to the "follow me home function," but I am unable to deactivate it using the gap tool. The fault codes C111A-15 indicate a problem with the right stoplamp, either a short circuit to the battery or an open circuit. Furthermore, I would appreciate guidance on what specific aspects to examine for the left C111B-15.
  22. The answer to your question depends on the specific make and model of the automobile that she is driving behind you. If you have a 15-year-old Zafira A car that costs £400 and has a baggage capacity of 1860 litres or more, you may just remain at home and welcome her warmly when she comes.
  23. Yesterday, I acquired my new Sportage and had a short drive, covering a distance of 34 miles as recorded on the car's odometer. As per the Connect app, it has covered a distance of 406 miles, even after reloading the app page many times. I believe it is accurate to state that the app mileage connection is malfunctioning.
