Re: Late 21 HEV
Mine is the same registration date as yours, but is one of the last models with the old style badge. I got a proportionate discount. The spec is otherwise the same. Not convinced by the new badge, keep seeing KN.......

Re: Final Drive Gear oil change
DCTF gear oil, as used in the Niro, is 100% synthetic and doesn't deteriorate. Carbon steel alloy gear wheels are case hardened and hardly wear at all. The hypoid shape is designed for quietness and to build up a micro-pressure environment where the gears mesh. There won't be any visible 'filings', ...

I'm presuming the hood isn't actually partly open......
Presumably you're referring to the " Range xxxx miles" 'sign'. I've never seen this display anything other than the range....post a photo and we'll try to work out what you're on about,..

Re: New to Kia and Niro
Intriguing what the interaction was between you and the dealer who sold you the car... Anyway, Niro 2 is bottom of the range (there is no 1), and 4 is top of the range. All the same generation. I don’t tow myself, but it's quite possible with a towing kit. The top of the range cars already have heat...
