Hey guys I am looking to sell my optima with the manual transmission. I understand this is a rare combination which is probably why I am having such a hard time reselling the car. I bought 7-8 months ago as a dealer certified car from willow brook kia in Illinois. The car is silver exterior and...

Hey guys. Im joining this forum mostly to sell my car. I purchased a 2011 optima with a manual transmission about 7-8 months ago as a certified dealer car for ~17k. I'm kind of dissapointed with the four cylinder and with the large size of the car and more then likely will sell this car. I have...

My car is getting some work done this week and one issue we've had is when I turn the HID's on (low beams or fogs) and I have the radio set on my usb stick, it will send a jolt or shock thru the radio head unit. It turns off briefly, turns back on and starts up the USB stick - looks like it's...

I know while back a forum member posted about the transmission fluid, we don't have to change or service transmission fluid. But how about power steering? How do we check it? Do you guys recommend a trans fluid flash after 50k?
