Re: 12V Battery issues

Why don't you email the dealer with the facts you have quoted here and see what they say. If they poo-poo it then I would take it up with Kia sending them the information. Following no action from either, how about a solicitor's letter to both? Or, since you have to go to the mainland, try another d...

Re: Charging problems

After an AWFUL lot of faffing about Hendy discovered it required a software update. Apparently the need for that has never, in their experience, come to light. It now charges perfectly.

Re: New member - heading to pick up Niro tomorrow

Welcome to the forum and your new car! PHEV driving is not that much different to driving a pure 'ICE' car. To make it as economical as possible, (which presumably is why you bought it) always use the flappy paddles for MAX REGEN and to slow. This will also make your brake pads last longer. My eNiro...

Re: EPB

The only, possibly unhelpful, comment I can make is that the other day I mistakenly applied the EPB on my level drive. I normally only put it in 'park'. When I drove off (just letting the reverse motion release the brake) the car shuddered and there was a loud 'clonk' from the rear wheels. As I drov...

Re: eNiro charging problem

SORTED! After a lot of faffing about and hours of Warranty(!) labour, it was a software problem that an update cured. All tickety-boo now! Key fob battery died this morning. To quote CARWOW. 3 annoying things about the Kia eNiro. 1. in spite of all the wizard tech on this car, there is no warning th...

eNiro charging problem

Has anybody had the problem of the eNiro stopping charging before the chosen level is completed.
The dealer can find no problem.
I have used a friends charger and cable and the fault still occurs . So that rules out a fault with my charger and or my cable.
Any Ideas?

Re: Kia e-Niro a target for thieves?

You can track you eNiro using the app. Open the app and go to the 'MAP' button, to see exactly where your car is parked.
Sadly insurance companies do not recognise this fact as it is not considered to be a legitimate 'Tracker'.

Re: moderators

Give me a chance I don't live on this site! I do have other things to do with my life.
I have now deleted the porn, to which you refer. It was up for less than a day.
I usually go in everyday about 10.00.
