tech

just joined! as i am >< close to purchasing my first Kia (after years of driving Japanese cars exclusively) a bit of panic though ... was reading the thread under "Soul Problems (Gen 2) > Jalopnik: Hyundai, Kia Called On to Recall 3 Million Cars" and then doing more research, seeing that the...

I guess Tech package questions would cover it, and hope its in the right section. This section gets more coverage. My 2019 has two tripometers. Pretty sure the first one is stable...so to speak. Only way to reset it, is manually. The 2nd one.....its gotta be on drugs, as I have no idea...

I am picking up my new 2018 Kia Soul EX Tech in mysterious blue on Friday! I am super excited! I am a current 2012 Soul owner and LOVE the car so much! I'm super stoked about the upgrade and all the cool new features and toys I get to play with! Decided not to wait until 2019, bit the...

I've had two sets of factory visors and they worked well. One came loose, the dealer fixed it when I drove in with the part flapping. I've got a set of Weather Tech but am having second thoughts. We got the front pair in, the back has clips and is a bit more complex. Your experience? Thanks...

Im a gear head of over 40 years so computerized cars were never my tingle but i have the 2013 soul ! As a driver and like it, I do have a hang up with all the mystery surrounding programming the smart key remote, please note i am talking about the remote on car with push button starter, Ive...

I just bought my 2nd Kia Soul, this one a 2018 SX turbo with the Tech package, which includes the Panoramic roof. I have a 16.5 foot canoe that I need to carry on the roof. Since I have the Panoramic roof, the dealer parts man told me that the "rail mounted" crossbars don't work with my SX (no...

I have been a member for several months and have posted. I have a full set of Weather Tech mats for a 16 i'd like to post for sale but it says i have insufficient privileges.

Weather Tech is now producing Side Window deflectors, about $115 for the 4 doors. The down side, besides the price is that the rear door deflectors are held in with clips. After following the installation instructions for the clips, I installed the deflector and it just fell out. Tried it on the...

Let me hear the opinions of the experienced if I may; price/function/quality? Any difference really? Other than looks, how about fit and quality? They both do the same thing; protecting your interior right? So which do you all prefer? I'm taking a vote befor I purchase. Thanks! :)

Anyone install the window relay/key fob window up/down kit from Shark Racing? I believe Dowon-tech is the same kit. The instructions are minimal at best and I'm having trouble with the final wire that lets the new relay know if the door is open or not. It says connect to a gray wire in the...

As I perused the owners manual for my new 2015 Soul+ I noticed it said for further information such as owners manual, service manual, etc. go to website www.KiaTechinfo.com Owner's manual states"The following publications are available on www.KiaTechinfo.com at no charge: Service manual...

I hope this is where you post tech questions also. About how long does the clutch last with 'average' driving on a 2011 1.6 M5? I know it's hard to estimate, but average time, average driving, not a whole lot of 'city' mile? Also, can they be 'adjusted out' like clutches back in the day? Thanks.

So i was going to post pictures of my new interior with my new weather tech mats... but my camera decided it wasnt charged. so i took a video as practice for a youtube channel im starting up. (not car related! sorry guys) and figured you guys might be interested in watching. Sorry the lighting...

I'll be coming from an 04 elantra with a 4 speed automatic and currently get 31 mpg on the highway. Will I at least get this witha a soul 2.0 automatic. Or is the brick shape too much of a drawback towards decent mpg.

My wife rear-ended a Ford pick-up (sudden stop,interstate construction area) a month ago with her '12 Silver '!'. The Ford's trailer hitch went into the lower grill,bending the inner bumper bar/condenser & radiator. The radiator was punctured,but the a/c still worked and since the man in the...

Do any of you folks out there know how to remove the lighter socket from my console? Want to do it without any damage. Diagrams or pics would be a great help.
