Thank you Ken_Lion - I believe I should read the handbook!

Thank you, DMGRS Very helpful.

I have lately acquired a 2023 Niro 3 HEV. I have Kia Connect loaded on my mobile device. However, I would want to know the procedure for checking the current software version installed on my automobile.

Resolution provided by Kia Connect. Despite much research, I managed to find this information online. There is no information on this solution on their website. We appreciate your contact. We regret to learn that you are encountering this problem. We respectfully request that you deactivate and then reactivate the Alerts & Security Service. The location of the item may be accessed inside the app using the designated menu. Additional information >>> Service List: Alerts & Security. Once the task is completed, you should have the ability to deactivate the Valet mode. If there are any other matters I can help you with, do inform me. Wishing you a pleasant day. Sincerely, Magda is a representative of Kia Connect. Hopefully, this might be of use to others.

There is no issue with the sole ability to deactivate it via the application. If the application successfully establishes a suitable connection with the car. Uncertain whether you have already used the valet mode. However, its functionality is limited to preventing the use of the radio, music, and navigation features. It does not effectively deter or prevent speeding.

I activated valet mode using the application. If you follow this method, the only option available for deactivation is via the application. Extremely bothersome!

Prior to using a meet and greet service at the airport, I opted to experiment with valet mode on my Sportage the evening before, using the app. Unfortunate timing. The valet mode has been engaged. Because there is no reason not to. Subsequently, when I attempted to disable it, I consistently saw a notice indicating the absence of a signal. Currently, the automobile has been immobilised in Valet mode for a duration of 13 days. The Kia Connect app continues to indicate a lack of signal. Despite the automobile indicating that it has signal. I attempted to reset the headunit. This is ineffective. After thoroughly reviewing over 30 online discussion boards, the only plausible explanation I can deduce is that there was a terms and conditions notification that appeared on the car's interface, which I failed to see while driving. And was never acknowledged? I have contacted Kia Connect via email, and now I must await their response. I personally spoke with Kia, but they were unable to provide any assistance. Have you encountered any such situations, and if so, how did you resolve them? The absence of sound when driving is quite distressing to me.

My vehicle also has this feature, where the front axle is divided into separate left and right components, each listed individually.

Should the designation for such components be classified as left and right front axle halves?

I have not yet had the chance to inspect the front end of the vehicle due to unfavourable weather conditions. However, if the weather is dry this weekend, I expect to be able to examine it.

Good evening, is there a straightforward method to determine whether the automobile is a 4Matic model? The automobile I just acquired lacks any 4Matic insignia, both on the vehicle itself and in the registration certificate. However, while obtaining insurance rates, it is listed as a 4Matic. Thank you in advance

The original equipment manufacturer (OEM) brand for the E46 is VDO/Siemens.

If there is a choice for video, I would prefer that one.

I have had a negative experience with the tyre fitters at Costco. Specifically, my son had new front tyres installed on his front-wheel drive vehicle at their establishment. Their approach was to replace the 'new' tyres on the rear of his vehicle and move his somewhat worn ones to the front. I disagreed with this decision since the front tyres are responsible for steering and most of the braking, so they would benefit from having greater grip in wet conditions. It required several deliberations to get the desired outcome according to our preferences.

Thank you to everyone. Unfortunately, Costco does not have the appropriate size for the rear tyres I need. I am disappointed about this. I cannot find any nearby locations that offer the Pilot Sport 4s in an 18-inch size. I have made a reservation with a nearby tyre shop on Friday to have new rear Michelin Pilot Sport 3 tyres installed.

I am especially enticed by the Michelin Pilot Sport 3 tyres.

Greetings, everyone. I would appreciate advice from SL55AMG owners about the type of rear tyres you are presently using, as well as your comments on which brand offers the optimal balance between durability, performance, comfort, and cost. The vehicle I own is a 2003 R230 SL55AMG, which is now equipped with Goodyear Eagle 285/35R 18 tyres mounted on its original turbine wheels. The available alternatives are Pirelli P Zeros, Continental Sportcontact3's, and Michelin Pilot sport 3's. What are your collective experiences, gentlemen... I only use this vehicle throughout the summer season, with little usage in rainy conditions.I do not vigorously criticise it. I like a noiseless and obedient tyre that has a lifespan of at least 3000 kilometres. Thank you in advance

The pricing does not include it; it is provided at no cost. The caravan show is priced at £12 and includes free parking.

It is advisable to purchase NEC vehicle parking in advance as it results in a cost savings of £5 compared to paying on the day of use. We have just completed four days of parking at Crufts.

The gearbox on my Mazda was serviced at a mileage of 15,820 miles. The process included repeated drains and refills due to the presence of a cooler that is securely attached to the side of the transmission. This design prevents any potential interception of cooler lines during equipment flushing. In the aforementioned essay, I elucidate the rationales of doing the service on the "Lifetime" fluid. The primary objective is to remove the fine sediments from the gearbox in order to prevent their continued circulation and prevent them from serving as a polishing agent that might lead to wear inside the gearbox. Currently, my vehicle has accumulated a mileage of 53,000 miles, prompting me to schedule a subsequent oil change including a drain and refill process. I completed a solitary 30,000-mile journey as well. On average, these maintenance will greatly prolong the lifespan of the gearbox. I had a six-speed Ford Escape that had accumulated 400,000 miles before the body deteriorated, necessitating the purchase of a replacement car. Due to my regular maintenance, the transmission of the automobile remained in good condition, with just a little issue with one of the shift solenoids. It is vital to comprehend that in the event that my gearbox necessitates repair, I possess the capability to do the task with ease. Since the early 1980s, I have been engaged in the process of rebuilding transmissions. To prevent mechanical wear, the only necessary components would be seals, bands, clutches, and maybe solenoids. The quality of all the hard components should be satisfactory, resulting in a rebuild cost of less than $400 (exclusively for parts) in the event that it becomes necessary.

These are the blades I have in my supply.

Charging the battery after each journey, even short ones, may help minimise degradation over time. How many of you engage in this activity and how many do not? This is also why purchasing a used item would worry me; what if the previous owner(s) did not adhere to proper billing practices.

Greetings, I own a 2014 W212 E350 vehicle and had a windscreen replacement a few years ago. The insurance providers, namely Mercedes, whose policy is insured by Markerstudy, declined the installation of an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) Mercedes-branded windscreen. They stipulated that such a replacement would only be permitted for vehicles that are no more than 12 months old. I had procured the coverage from the aforementioned entity on the premise that they exclusively use authentic Mercedes components and authorised repairers, thereby prompting a little sense of dissatisfaction. The calibration and installation of the screen were performed by the auto glass department at the Mercedes Brentford main dealership location. The repositioning of the wipers was not executed accurately, necessitating a visit to my residence for rectification. During the process of the second repair, the technicians inadvertently caused damage to the engine cover cowl located in the engine compartment. Fortunately, I was there to observe this incident. Subsequently, after a period of five months, the damaged engine cover cowl was eventually replaced by the technicians. Upon observation, I have seen that the screen inside the vehicle becomes covered in ice during cooler nights of the year. This leads me to question if the seals were properly installed. It is plausible that I may have encountered a stroke of misfortune; nonetheless, in the event that one opts for aftermarket products, it is important to exercise meticulous scrutiny once completion. This contribution is expected to provide assistance.
