Re: Niro CarPlay

This has been resolved by the software update just released. Didn’t have to pay for the update as it was related to the fault..

All Working great now.

Niro DashCam install

I’ve had dash and in my other cars for a couple of years and decided to use the same camera for the Niro as it’s a good all round d spec and a good price.. After playing about with various locations I just decided to go below the mirror.. Fitted it to the screen and removed the trim around the Senso...

Niro Recall

Had my 3 week old PHEV in their dealer yesterday to look at the CarPlay issue.. While it was there there carried out two new recalls. Both rear suspension arms replaced & a wiring harness replacement under bonett. Alloy wheels will also be replaced if the suspension fault has damaged the wheels.

Re: Niro CarPlay

Had it in the dealer yesterday and tested another in the showroom and it did the same..

Kia have just released a software update but the dealers don’t have it yet, should do in the next week.

Hopefully that will resolve it

Chrome Delete

I’m not a huge fan of chrome on cars and unfortunately the Niro has a fair bit.

Decided to buy some matt black wrap and start to cover it, I’ll update as I go.

Some or the rear bumper to start with.

Looks ok for a first attempt, door handles next.

Niro CarPlay

Just had a new Niro PHEV delivered.

When I plug my iPhone in car play starts then a few seconds later it failed. Tried other phones and same issue.. Anyone else have the issue? After 5 or 6 attempts it stays connected.. also checked cables.

Pre Purchase Info

Morning All, Just about to put a deposit on a 2018 Niro PHEV, first car of this type i has owned. At what speed does the petrol engine kick in, is it only under load or a specific speed. Or can i potentially be doing 70mph on battery alone.? What apps do users use in the UK for recharging stations.....
