    All 3 of these lights come and stay on while the car is in use. At first it was just sporadic, all the lights would come on, then would turn off car and restart and they'd be off. Now they stay on all the time. Any ideas?
  2. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    Hello All, My car is at 50,000 miles roughly. I get heavy vibrations only when the car is in drive and stopped. When the car is in park, the vibrations lesson greatly and become almost not noticable. I did a search but it seems everyone has a different issue. Is there a TSB for this? Thanks!

    What up peeps, with out a doubt I paid cash for a 2014 Kia Optima SXL Turbo. She's a pretty white color with chrome package. It was a toss up between a black 2015 SX Turbo or a white 2014. So glad I got the 2014 one. It's a head turner and I have not seen alot of SXL's in the Dallas area. She's...

    Does anyone know if there is a repair manual for the 2014 Kia Optima? The current manuals seem to stop at 2010. Both Chilton and Haynes manuals don't show any available. Any suggestions as to where I can find one? Thanks in advance for any help!

    Hi gang, I just picked up a 2014 SX and am really enjoying it so far. Coming from a VW Jetta, so quite an upgrade. I live in northern VA (Purcellville). I'll be looking at installing a new head unit and backup camera, but I will post that in the regular forums once I have access to post I...
  8. Hybrids
    Good morning all - On my way to work this AM, I got a "Hybrid System Warning, please pull over and turn the car off" dash warning. I pulled over at the nearest gas station. I was low on fuel so I decided to refuel while the car was shut off for a few minutes. After about 5 minutes, I...

    Hey guys, New Kia owner here. Last car was a 2014 GT Mustang and was terrible for my commute to work (both mileage and the clutch). So far, loving the car. Super smooth and pretty quick for a 4 cylinder. The turbo definately helps. I will likely be dropping some cash on a few mods here and...

    Hello All, I’m new to the Forum, but my wife and I bought our Kia Optima back in January 2014. Soon after purchasing the car we got orders to Okinawa, Japan so we didn’t get much time to enjoy it. I’ve spent quite a bit of time poking around the K5 Optima store as well as this forum to find...
