    Low tire pressure won't go off

    You may need to take it to the dealer and have them reset the TPMS system and do a relearn. You could also potentially have a defective TPMS sensor on that wheel. I have one that always runs 1 lb. higher than all of the others, but I've been too lazy to take it to the dealer. They can set an...

    Need Help Installing Hitch Wiring "E-Brake Power Harness"

    Yes, for bike racks and small trailers you don't need the E-Brake. Larger trailers, campers, boats, etc., need the E-Brake. The lights will work normally without this module.

    Oil filter housing.

    I don't know that I've seen anyone post one way or the other on this. It seems like the greatest risk is if it is not installed properly, leaks and then damages the engine, they may not honor the warranty due to the modification. I just received a letter from KIA today extending the warranty...

    I replaced mine with LED bulbs from VLED. They work much better. FYI - I've purchased LEDs from VLED for over 10 years. I only had one ever fail and they replaced it overnight. Their LED products are very high quality.

    Rattle in rear captain seats

    A couple of other ideas to check: Check in the storage area right behind the 3rd row to see if anything is loose in there that might also rattle when you hit the seats In that same storage area is where you access the spare tire to lower it. Ensure that the tire is tight up against the...

    Sound Volume Using Apple CarPlay

    I use Apple CarPlay with two different vehicles and I've found on both that they both maintain different volumes for whatever input you are using. In the case of playing music or podcasts from an iPhone, it is also dependent on the volume setting on the iPhone and you can use the equalizer on...

    Remote starter, engine oil dipstick

    That's exactly how the dipstick on the Telluride works. Pull it out, wipe it, put it in, pull it out and then check it. Something in the way it seals at the bottom. I haven't tried the remote start from the key fob. I use it rarely from the App and it works well on the rare times I use it.

    Telluride nightmare (Electrical Issues)🤯

    Just an idea - today's alternators are smaller and lighter and while they do a great job of keeping the car running, they don't charge the battery like older alternators were designed to do. If you have a battery charger (make sure it is compatible with AGM batteries if yours is an AGM). Let...

    Kia Telluride 3.8 vs Hyundai Genesis 3.8

    The Genesis engines are turbocharged and mostly rear wheel drive. The Telluride and Palisade are naturally aspirated (no turbos) and front wheel drive (the AWD models are FWD engines)

    Oil change info..

    I have a 24 SXP-X-Line and should hit 16,000 miles in the next week. Mine takes right around 6.5 - 6.6 qts. of oil every time and I don't need any oil in between changes. I did my first oil change at 1,500 miles, 2nd at 5,000 and every 5,000 since then. I do it myself at home on a level...

    Oil change info..

    Because the engines should be identical as they have not made any major changes to them from 2023 to 2025, I'm betting that it is a translation error in going from liters to quarts. I'm betting that they use AI to manage their manuals and no one internally compares their 2025 to their 2024...

    Window trim

    I had an issue with one of my window trims. I took it to the dealer and they replaced all four of them under a Service Advisory in July. There is now listed a new recall (7/29/25) for the window trim (they call it the door belt molding assembly). It indicates that they will replace the...
