  1. It is my preference that our EV2 begin its journey in eco mode. A sensible thing to do would be to set it to the last mode used. Keep in mind that turning off the ignition should also save a number of other things, but this is not the case. For instance, lane assist, the last flappy paddles setting, etc., are always set to 1.
  2. Absolutely! However, they aren't Pirelli.
  3. After six years of sitting outside, rusting from the bottom up, a car that is twenty-five years old is probably already scrap. Some businesses will even come to you to collect your junk car and pay you what it's worth in scrap metal. The other option is to remove the trim around the steering column to gain access. Then, using a small chisel and hammer, unscrew the security bolts that attach the key cylinder assembly to the side of the column. This will allow you to extract the locking mechanism, which will allow you to turn the steering wheel. For my older vehicles, I have done this on multiple occasions. The tops of the security bolts are visible once you remove the trim, so you can see that they are surprisingly easy to identify (hint: they don't have a head, just a smooth dome). A nearby locksmith can accomplish the task in a matter of minutes if you're in a true jam.

  5. 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.
  6. Similar to my EV3, EV2s have the reflection. Another feature of the Harmon Kardon system is the large center speaker reflection. Similar to how the ambient light reflects in the EV3 GT Line S on the driver and passenger windows, I can simply block it out with my brain and ignore it. However, I am aware that many people find it objectionable.
  7. Great thread!was correct when they suggested moving to the hub center method. Tire profile and pressure always cloud the rim-to-arch reading, so it's worth comparing your new numbers instead. Your comfort to sport drop appears to be about correct for these vehicles, if that helps. In Sport, Airmatic lowers the front end by around 20 mm and the rear end by about 10 mm on the X218; these dimensions correspond to your 670 to 650 and 640 to 630 measurements, respectively. Therefore, nothing there shouts that something is amiss. What would actually reassure me is that the two sides read the same, 670/670 and 640/640. When the level sensors show that the airmatic is at the desired height, the struts and accumulator are evenly holding the pressure, which is why symmetric readings are important. A worn strut or a leaking accumulator would have caused one corner to sit 15 or 20 mm lower than the other. Put your worries about it drooping to rest; it appears to be level on yours. A few things to keep in mind so that other people's measurements are fair. No one else in the car, same tyre pressures, about the same amount of gas and on a flat, level surface. The readings obtained after a run and those taken after parking for some time might be slightly different because Airmatic adjusts the ride height depending on the vehicle's position. Even with the steel front, Cherrypd, your husband's rear air figure will serve as a good stand-in for the OP's Comfort rear, as both rears will self-level to their respective targets. True to what the OP stated, fronts will clash.
  8. As expected, I am grateful. Strange, though.
  9. Hello Everyone The other day I observed that my 2024 Sportage GT Line's rear lights, particularly the inner ones, have acquired multiple fractures. Interestingly, there has been no damage to the body, therefore there has been no collision or anything like that. This happened to anyone else as well? If that's the case, could you please tell me what steps you've taken? Much obliged.
  10. Verify that the x11 connector—which goes into the internal fuse box's base—is not rusted; otherwise, you will not be able to receive any signals.
  11. The second set of knobs for the back doors was just installed. Despite not being covered by warranty, the last pair was installed at no cost to the customer. They said it was a design flaw and repaired it when I reported it two years ago. That is plainly not the case.
  12. The owner clearly knows what it's like to have unscrupulous individuals show up and take advantage of the car for sale. Lots of useful advice for anyone planning to sell autos in the future.
