  3. For over 18 months, I have owned the EV3. Charge with an Intelligent Octopus The Ohme Epod was never a problem to control. We also have an EV2, which functions with the same level of reliability.
  4. I successfully charged my EV3 utilising the Ohme application and charger without encountering any problems.
  5. The residence indeed possesses a three-phase supply; however, a limitation in the cable pathway to the charger permitted only the installation of a smaller cable for 7.2Kw, unfortunately. I am accustomed to the absence of a link between the vehicle application and the charging application, so it is not a significant issue.
  6. This will not pose an issue. Virtually all residences in the UK utilise single-phase electricity, as three-phase systems are prohibitively costly for domestic use. Thus far, our three electric vehicles have been charging seamlessly on the OHME Home Pro for three years. The primary source of issues with the OHME charger is the connection between the vehicle and the charger through the car application, resulting in a lack of communication between the two. The most prudent recommendation is to refrain from connecting the vehicle application to the charger.
  7. Thank you, that is a comfort, superior to the evasive responses I was receiving from Kia.
  8. I affirm. I have encountered no issues. The EV3 is absent from the roster of officially endorsed models by Ohme. To utilise the economical overnight rate, I configured the Ohme app to increase the charge by 40%. I can augment that to incorporate additional charge, but it will require more time and incur a slightly higher expense. You may also establish a maximum charge limit on the vehicle or via the KIA application.
  9. I am in pursuit of insights from EV3 proprietors. I encountered a discussion in another forum regarding a woman whose new EV3 failed to charge with her single-phase 7.2 kW home charger. I anticipate acquiring a new EV3 next month and am currently experiencing some anxiety. I possess an Ohme ePod charger that delivers 7.2/7.4Kw from a single-phase electrical supply. Are there additional individuals utilising the same configuration to effectively charge an EV3?
  10. Yesterday
  11. I appreciate any assistance you can provide in advance. I was travelling at approximately 60mph when the engine ceased functioning, without any commotion, sound, vibration, or odours. No excessive heat generation. Oil and water levels and status are standard. The battery was functioning properly ten minutes prior to the start. Attempting to restart it produced a sound reminiscent of a depleted battery. The AA arrived and, upon attempting to start the machine, it operated sluggishly and was consuming a substantial amount of current.The vehicle was operating smoothly without any problems previously. There is an absence of cam chain noise during cold starts and at all other times. It was proposed, and I intend to remove the serpentine belt to prevent the seizing of the alternator, AC compressor, steering pump, pulleys, and so forth. I would have anticipated some screeching or burning odours from the belt if that were true, but I am not a Mercedes expert, despite being a reasonably skilled mechanic. I would surmise the starter as the culprit; however, I find it difficult to comprehend how a malfunctioning starter could initially halt the engine, particularly since I am not well-versed in the stop-start mechanism. The stop-start feature has consistently malfunctioned in the vehicle, yet this has not troubled me. There was no power failure; I had accelerated quite vigorously, eased off to coast for a moment, and only realised the engine had ceased when I pressed the accelerator and observed no increase in RPMs. I have encountered catastrophic engine failures throughout the years, and there were no indications whatsoever of any issues. It simply ceased. I utilised my Mercedes-specific diagnostic tool, but no pertinent codes were detected. A few points concerning interaction with the instrument cluster, yet I fail to perceive the connection. No aspects pertaining to cam timing or any engine-related matters. Should anyone possessing greater firsthand experience with this have any insights or troubleshooting recommendations, I would be exceedingly appreciative.I possess general knowledge, yet lack specific information regarding this vehicle; I will detach the belt, although it appears somewhat cumbersome, so conducting other inspections may be advisable beforehand. My greatest apprehension is that the engine has become inoperative. I appreciate it.
  12. Last week
  13. I encountered the identical issue, so ultimately I returned to the website and purchased the USB directly from KIA, which functioned flawlessly. Continuing to encounter difficulties in locating an appropriate cable for ANDROID AUTO... however, that is...

  15. How can I connect the SD card to my MacBook if my computer lacks an SD port? I have utilised an antiquated "USB/card" driver.
  16. Kia's update informs you whether you utilise an SD card or USB for navigation updates. Inserting the card incorrectly will result in it not being read.
  17. However, my 2018 Kia Niro is equipped with a slot for an SD card, indicating that it must exclusively accept updates through an SD card rather than a USB drive, correct? It is equipped with a USB port, which I utilise for Apple CarPlay and similar functionalities. Indeed, I am utilising the Kia software for the purposes of formatting and updating the SD card. I have attempted multiple times, yet the vehicle still fails to recognise the card.
  18. I utilise a USB drive for updates and consistently allow the Kia update website to download the files directly onto the USB stick, which encompasses formatting. It consistently functions, although it may occasionally require time for the vehicle to detect the USB. Are you transferring files directly to the SD card? Occasionally, certain devices encounter memory issues that other devices can accommodate. You might consider utilising an alternative brand of SD card.
  19. Greetings, I possess a 2018 Kia Niro DCT Hybrid. The navigation system is malfunctioning. The SD card is installed, yet the vehicle continues to prompt “Insert SD card.” I utilised Kia's official update software on my computer to refresh the navigation files on the SD card. The computer successfully reads the card, yet the vehicle fails to acknowledge it. I attempted to duplicate the files onto my computer initially and subsequently transfer them back to the SD card, yet I continue to receive the same notification. What might be the underlying reasons for this, and how can I rectify it?
  20. I would repair it, particularly if it is not a dilapidated vehicle.
  21. You are merely speculating recklessly. It is probable that the issue pertains to a specific component, potentially a sway bar end link; however, without conducting a thorough examination or enlisting professional assistance, indiscriminately purchasing parts in an attempt to make an educated guess is imprudent.
  22. It is a valuable asset as it does not consume oil. A substitute vehicle is likely to incur significantly higher expenses.
  23. Retain it. Components are inexpensive and simple to assemble. These vehicles can reach a mileage of 500,000 miles with proper upkeep.
