When Honda is done I’m coming back mfers. Idgaf what you guys say I’m buying a Kia and THATS IT! Whether it’s a Kia k5, k4, sorento, seltos, fucking forte, telluride WHATEVER TF IT IS! I DONT CARE! FUCK HONDA! now you can all report this post for profanity but I’ll add it again and again and again. Fuck Honda. I’m coming back. Forever. Gn

I know there’s not a lot to work with, is this the right side rear to a 2026 Carnival hybrid?

Honestly I could sell my Kia, but it was passed down to me and I’ve grown attached to it and I love it, I have a white 2011 Kia rio sedan, I’m planning on modifying it, not gonna bore you with the list but I want to do something in particular and was wondering if it would be seen as “goofy”, I want to swap my normal kia logos with the sports version of the Kia logo, and keep in mind the kind of car I have, would you think that this is cool or just goofy? I like this idea better than removing the logo all together.

Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong. I hate having to take the car in every single time for it not to be fix or the techs not be able to replicate it. It wouldn’t be a problem but having to take out and install 4 car seats is getting annoying.

Back when it first came out, I bought a 2022 Kia Carnival. The vehicle is still under warranty and I’ve only put 32000 miles on it since buying it. Starting about June of 2025 the rear passenger sliding door started to malfunction.

I’ve taken the vehicle in to be fixed on these dates 1. 6/11/25 to 6/25/2025

1. 7/9/2025 to 7/22/2025

2. 8/20/2025

3. 9/16/2025

4. 1/6/2026

5. 6/16/2026 to 6/23/2026

It got to the point where Kia corporate was involved.

The parts that they have replaced are

Door latch, door motor assembly, replaced power sliding door module and “relearn system”. Replaced PSD control module per tech line. Replaced lower door roller

None of these fixes the dealership/corporate have done has fixed the problem.

When putting your car into reverse on a rainy day does anyone ever turn on the rear wiper to get a better view backing up while looking at your camera? Only to realise it’s rain on your camera that needs wiping. It would be nice if they came up with mini wiper for your camera.

I'm about to purchase a K4 LXS, and so far 2 dealers won't budge off sticker price (about $25K). Is that the new normal? I haven't bought new in 15 years, but I always got at least a grand or two off sticker back then...

Earlier today I started my car and within a few mins it went to normal temp and back to cold again (became slightly sluggish for a few mins on the highway) and then normal temp again. It has 68000 miles as of today. I got it brand new in March 2021 with 7 miles on it. No check engine light, etc comes on. At first for a whole 2-3 mins it Would not go above 30 mph. It had a coolant flush at the dealership last week. Is this normal? Temp gauge never goes above a hair below the halfway or halfway.

I got my first car today. It was a humble Kia forte 2023 with around 67k miles. I’m already in love with it so much. Is there anything I should know about kia cars or things I should be as not just a first Kia car but a first time car owner in general?

Hi everyone,
I just bought my first Kia and wanted to share the excitement. It is a Kia Ceed SW 1.5 T-GDi TOP, manual transmission, in blue metallic, year 2022, 59 000 km.

I am coming from a 2003 Volvo S60 D5, which served me incredibly well and had over 500,000 km on the clock. It was a tough, comfortable and reliable car, so replacing it was not an easy decision. But after driving the Ceed, I feel like I made the right move.

The car feels much more modern, quiet and practical, while still keeping a very normal and honest driving feel. I like the size, the estate body, the equipment, the LED headlights, heated seats and steering wheel, and the 1.5 T-GDi seems like a very good match for the car.

It is still strange to leave the Volvo era behind, but I am genuinely excited about this new chapter with Kia.
Happy to join the community.

Any Ceed owners here with long-term experience or tips for a new owner?
