Hey all, new member located in Northern VA. Referenced this forum for some time now, but just now signing up. Dillon

I've had my Optima Hybrid for almost 2 years now, while I really like it, I do have some issues. The creak in the sunroof-which going through the forums has given me something to bring to my dealer... The delayed response when pushing the accelerator, it's just plain annoying. Have to stomp on...

Hi everyone. My name is Karen and I live in Northern California. I signed up for this forum right after I got my Kia but have never used it. Now I'm having some issues and thought I'd come to the experts. My Optima has about 93k miles on it and for the most part I love it. Just hoping to...

Hey We just picked up a 2015 Snow white pearl SXL turbo. It was a dealer demo, dual-sunroofs, and has every available option plus dealer installed black powder-coated wheels, 35% tint and remote start as well as floor and trunk mats and a spare tire kit. Wish I could post pics, but it said...

What's up guys and girls My name is Brendan and I recently picked up a 2011 Optima Ex in Platinum Graphite. Let me first say that I've been in car love with these optimas since I first laid eyes on one in 2011. What a beauty, as I'm sure you all know. I've been lurking around the forums...

Whats going on guys? My name is Mike or Snoyl. Im from Northern Kentucky/Cincinnati, Ohio area. I bought a 2015 Optima last November when my old civic decided to "blow up" on my wife. Im looking to get some advice on any mods and just continue to learn more about the car. The only mods I've done...

I just got a 2014 Optima Limited SXL. So far, I really like the car, but miss the power of my 2005 Dodge Magnum that was totaled (while parked) on Memorial Day weekend. The tip and tricks sticky has been very useful.

Hey Everyone! I am new to the KIA scene, I just purchased a 2012 Optima EX w/o Turbo, it had around 32k miles on it! I got rid of my 2004 Mazda 6s 3.0l V6 that had many mods, it was time for me and her to part ways as the fixing never stopped after 90,000 miles. So far I am loving the Optima, I...

Hi everyone, I just purchased a white SXL w/ grey interior about a week ago. I live in Woodbridge, VA about 20 miles outside of Washington DC. This is my first Kia and I decided to go with it since I wanted a decent family hauler but wanted something unique and didn't want german...

I found a place that carries 100 and after calculating it, I believe the mix would be 14 gallons of 91 and 4 gallons of 100 to get 93. I'd prefer to just buy 93, but doing this occasionally wouldn't be horrible, it's just a bit pricey. The place I found is a Flyer's on the corner of Watt and...

Hey everyone, Just wanted to say hello to everyone here. I have been owning a 2013 Optima Lx since june and I have been reading this forum since then. Only now I created a profile to post on this forum as I was pissed off by the fact that I was not able to share my opinions on some threads...

Quite honestly I am not sure how I bent my passenger rear wheel, but I did slightly. Pretty much your typical minor bend on the inside of the rim, so now the tire bead does not sit properly and causes a pretty substantial leak under load/movement (bad enough not to drive). Does anyone know a...

I am looking to getting Xpel added to my car somewhere in Northern NJ. Looking at areas close to me, the two are Clear Image Inc in Fair Lawn, and Prestige Motors in Mahwah. Anyone have any experience with them? I know that Lee Berbs is recommended in multiple forums but he is about an hour...

Anyone have any recommendations for deals in northern NJ? I do not have any dealers in mind, just that they must be in NJ. I live really close to Fette Kia if anyone has any info on them. Others around my area that I am willing to go to are: Jack Daniels Kia, Maroon Kia, Mahwah Kia, Hudson Kia...

So I know some of you have posted before about Oursiman Chantilly, but I am truly fed up with these people. I will tell the story below, but am contemplating file a formal complaint with the Fairfax Consumers Affairs office and with the BBB. Three weeks ago I brought my car into Ourisman to...

Hello all! Doing the whole new guy thing here. Not new to cars at all, I have an extensive history of building and modifying them. Just drove my new 2013 optima EX with premium package, Snow White pearl with gray leather home about an hour ago. So far the car is a dream! I look forward to...

I know there's more than a couple of us from this area on these forums. Anyone interested in networking with some other optima owners? Maybe we can start collaborating on some mods. :thumbsup:
