  1. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    Hey, Has anyone else pre-ordered the uncle boost from Lap3USA? I bought it without realizing it was on pre-order three and half weeks ago (it doesn't actually list it as pre-order on the buy page..) and found out through an email with customer service. How long have you been waiting? Does...
  2. Hybrids
    Hi, I got this 2017 Optima PHEV EX with Tech Pkg. Upon my check online, there are two types of factorial remote start module. D5F57-AC201 and D5F57-AC001 Both module is 'said' to be compatible with Optima PHEV. So did anybody really installed a remote start to a PHEV/Hybrid 4th gen Optima? I...

    Has anyone had issues with their body control modules on the Optima's? My car has blown the module 1 fuse and has numerous things that has stopped working along with it being stuck in park.
  5. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    Good morning, the wife's 2013 Kia Optima SXL with a little over 100,000 miles had a issue the other day. I went out in the morning to star and move the car, it started great but it wouldn't come out if park. I shut the engine off and noticed it didn't go through the usual shut down process, no...

    My 2017 Optima Hybrid EX did not have remote start. The dealer wanted $900 to install a remote start. Not only was the price insanely prohibitive, their remote start had a separate fob to carry. Forget that. I searched around and found the K5 Optima Store offered a K5OS Canbus module that...

    Hello friends, My very recently out of warranty 2012 Optima SX started throwing up an Airbag CEL about a month ago. I noticed that the passenger occupied airbag light was not coming on when a person was in the seat. I assumed this was likely the seat sensor or perhaps cabling. I made sure all...

    Hey guys, I received this mod for Christmas and went around town for quotes and was quoted $750-1000 (Sound Sensations Marietta and Monster Customs) which I thought sounded really high (I get the install is intricate, but I'm not about to go to some rinky-dink place or someone who hasn't done...

    So like the title says. I had to purchase a new battery yesterday and after I put the new battery in all the features for the canbus module quit working. The battery was disconnected for about an hour while I was driving to test the old and get a new one. I was thinking there is a chance the...
  16. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    I would be installing this module on both mirrors tomorrow and was wondering if someone has been able to install this on a 2015 optima as it seems there is a diy for the 2013 and the new k5 seems to be different. Any help would be greatly appreciate.
  17. Engine and Technical Discussion
    So it's been a few months since David Chung has been selling this ECU reflash module and I haven't heard much at all on these forums (Facebook don't count) as to what folks who purchased it think about it and their experiences about it (good/bad/meh). I'd like to ask those in the community who...
