If you had the choice between strut brace, sway bar or stiff rings. what would you start with? Looking to improve daily drive /comfort and handling. Car will also be dropped 1". This is for the SX T.

When will the Optima drop the AC/Heat controls being part of the Infotainment system?I prefer the dials and temp indicators in the HVAC unit like on my Sonata.Also, MyHyundai app and BlueLink provide Remote Start.It appears Kia only provides on K900...not even on new Stinger yet (without 2nd...

Contrary to what I have read online, the Optima SX appears to only have a 15 gallon gasoline tank. I discovered this 2 days ago when I went to Costco to "fillerup". Checking my trip computer, I had roughly 40 miles for Range, and the orange indicator was on for low gasoline level. I bought...

Yelp and Pandora. Really KIA?? I use Pandora which works great as a Sirius alternative, but Yelp requires wifi. Useless if I'm on the road looking for a place. If I'm missing something and there's all these other apps hiding somewhere, please let me know!! Thanks all...

Hey everybody! So I recently have been having a strange problem with my 2009 Kia Optima LX. Every now and then when I turn on the car it'll shake and buck before I put it in drive..and when I do start to drive the car has no pick up and then violently shakes at 40mph and then somewhat smooths...

So for the past two weeks my 2015 sx-t has had a bad brake squeak. It only happens when I'm coming to a complete stop like from 10-0 you start hearing it. I haven't had this issue ever before with any car and not sure what it could be.

Cars at 1000 miles, going with the LAP3 chip for warranty reasons, so I'm only interested in replacing the catback right now. Opinions on a good deep rumble exhaust, as least ricey as possible. Magnaflow or CP-E both have my attention right now, just wanted to hear what you guys think. Sound...

I find it a PITA that the locks for the power windows control all windows except the driver. I have a son who plays with the windows which requires the locks to be on. But then my wife has 0 control of her window in the passenger side. Is there a mod that would all the power window locks to...

Hey guys, Noob to the Kia scene, but long time car guy and have some builds under my belt. Just got my barely used 2012 kia Optima SX T-GDI Friday andim loving it so far. Just as tight as my A-Spec Acura TL was. Many plans for it with wheels, tires and lowering springs first on the list...

Well looking around here on this thread I see that I am not the only one that thinks that the Kia dealerships are morons. Shrike one was the fact tat they fixed he nose of the car and painted t and never said anything to me. Strike two was when they replaced the tires cause the needed to be...

Saw our first good snow storm this weekend and seemed to me with bad weather is the time to use the fogs to light up the edges of the road a bit. I noticed after I turned them on that they actually made it harder to see. Its almost like they are aimed to high, or just have to wide of a vertical...

I've been contemplating getting some custom painted Lexani R-Five rims and wheels from cardid.com At any rate, my question is that my wife is against me buying wheels AND tires from online. She wants me to just get the rims. But she wants me to get the tires from a local shop. She is worried...

I'm trying to make a comment in a thread that I found this forum from (originally via Google search) - ie. potentially the only relevant one to the answers I'm seeking - and anywhere that I try to quote or even make a comment, I'm getting a V-bulletin error message saying that I "may not have...

if you could only pick 3 upgrades to do to your optima non mechanical what would they be???

I understand the Hybrid's have more aluminum suspension parts to offset the hybrid component weight - so curious if any other hybrid owners have experienced a light to moderate popping sound from a stand still and then a the same when braking. Most noticeable with start/stop rush hour driving...
