  1. Engine and Technical Discussion
    Rant warning. I took my car to the dealership today to have to have them mount and balance 4 tires with their road force machine. Surprisingly they were the cheapest in the area when using the road force equipment. Anyways, I ask the service manager if when they have the wheels off they could...

    Well I would have liked to post on this thread, but alas I do not have the privies to do so. http://www.optimaforums.com/forum/4-new-member-introductions/6602-welcome-optima-forums-complete-guide-optimaforums-com.html Anyway, my optima SXL is in the shop for a pretty nasty engine knock. It...
  3. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    Geez! I never knew it would be so hard to get a duplicate key! $90 from one dealer (45 min away) $22 from another (1:15 away) and neither of them cut them--they have to order them. I just purchased the switchblade key fob from the Optima Store and now I don't know where I'll get it cut. The...
  4. Engine and Technical Discussion
    Greetings all! With my luck, I traded an 2012 EX turbo for a 2014 SX Turbo... I liked my previous Optima (except for few mechanical warranty fixes), and was willing to try a newer model:) However, I think I hit the bad luck with the new one very early... About less than a week from the...

  8. 3rd Generation Optima (2011 - 2015)
    REALLY don't like the cupholders. Regular size cans and drinks move all over the place. Ordered a Dorman 41000 insert and it fit perfectly and keeps the drinks where they should be. $8 for a small piece of rubber feels like a high price but I'm ordering another. It works and I hate the current...
  9. Wheels, Tires and Suspension
    So, before getting my 20s, my car was pulling to the right.. I went to the dealer once and had them check the alignment and they adjusted and I was on my way. I didn't ask for an explanation bc I had heard it was common on the 2011s. Now I have my 20s on and I went back to the dealer to have...
