  1. Today
  2. Utilise the puck/saddle pad exclusively with a trolley jack, ensuring it features a groove that aligns with the cill rail/seam between the dimples. The rubber prevents the jack from harming the cill and diminishes the likelihood of the automobile or jack slipping.
  3. I have recently visited eBay, allowing me to answer my own inquiry on the puck. The description in the handbook referenced by Old Drongo aligns with my handbook; however, the illustrations of the jack points do not indicate the presence of this seam, nor do they clarify the function of the dimples. As for Mogless and Noublue's use of a puck, do you use the puck as is or do you modify it? Is the puck utilised when employing a scissors jack? I apologise if I appear uninformed; nevertheless, I am not an automotive technician, therefore I am exercising caution.
  4. The manual's graphic specifies that the scissor jack must be placed in the region between the dimples.
  5. I have identified what I believe to be the front jack point; it seems to be a vertical metal weld seam including two dimples (inverted U-shaped recesses in the seam, for lack of a better term). Several years ago, I owned Vauxhalls that featured a comparable jack point, but with only a single dimple. On the Vauxhalls, the dimple accommodated a lug situated at the centre of the jack (jack supplied by Vauxhall). Does the Kia have an option for selecting a certain dimple, or should I position the jack between the two dimples, or is there another method? Are these ice hockey pucks referred to by that term on eBay, or do they have an alternative designation there?
  6. I consistently utilise a puck with the trolley jack to avert slippage; once positioned on the ground beside the vehicle, the jacking points become evident, characterised by a double thickness of metal and a locating dimple.
  7. As stated in the handbook, I possess a trolley jack and typically utilise a "strong point" for jacking; but, I have also employed the pinch welds with the addition of an ice hockey puck, which is inexpensive on eBay, among other sources.
  8. This is the content of the manual. A unit should be present in the car.
  9. I possess a 72-registered Sportage, acquired a month ago, and it is my inaugural Kia. How can I identify a jacking point on the vehicle? I purchased a full-size spare wheel, and it fits well in the designated "spare" position. When at home, I can choose between a trolley jack and a scissor jack to elevate the car. While travelling, I possess only a scissors jack for wheel replacement. Where does Kia propose positioning a jack under the car, and do these locations vary based on the type of jack employed? Thank you for your assistance.
  10. Yesterday
  11. Costco also offers this option whether ordering through the app or website.
  12. Upon conducting research, I discovered that they ought to be transported in an upright position. I will go for a product from BJ's, as they offer complimentary delivery and includes warranties.
  13. I believe delivery is the solution in this context. I would not feel at ease placing it diagonally, if it would even fit. What is the rationale for assuming risk?
  14. I believe it must be inserted at an angle. Utilising certain blankets may prove beneficial. Do you possess a roof rack?
  15. We will be acquiring a new television soon, and I am enquiring whether I can get it personally. The boxes measure approximately 44 to 45 inches in width, which is my primary concern; I do not anticipate any issues with the length. I understand it will not fit horizontally, but it appears it may be accommodated at an angle within the car. I am enquiring whether anyone has attempted it, since I am concerned it may not fit, necessitating a return to the store in embarrassment.
  16. The CLK (c209) has an identical system; if a unit is present, it will be located in the glove box. I utilise the slot located directly above the screen. The system is cumbersome; if utilised frequently, I recommend replacing it with a more contemporary alternative. Utilise just the OEM disc; I believe the most recent disc is from 2019.
  17. It resembles an NTG1 from recollection. Is there a compartment in the trunk to accommodate the Navigation DVD?
  18. Greetings. I apologise for the delayed response. Attached is a photograph.
  19. Upload an image of the head unit. 👍 Numerous counterfeit DVDs are available for purchase, which may harm the player. Occasionally, installing an updated map may pose a challenge if the "new" map software is excessively current. Each disc frequently contains updated firmware, which may require consecutive installation.
  20. I am uncertain. Could you inform me of the method to ascertain this information? Will the original DVD function if I manage to locate one?
  21. Does he possess the NTG 2 unit command? The most recent update was, regrettably, in 2019.
  22. Greetings My kid possesses a 2007 CLK 320 and is seeking the satellite navigation DVD. Can anyone recommend a reliable source, please? Thank you
