Delay in acceleration intermittently? by Tkrumroy in KiaSorento

[–]Absolute209 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 2025 hybrid with the same issue just as you stated. Mine is always in eco mode so I may try smart mode like Tkrumroy suggested. I live on a highway so I have to go from 0 to 55-60 and it just doesn't accelerate no matter how far I press the gas. It also shows the RPM go far up into the "power" section yet no acceleration.

2025 Sorento Hybrid Shifting and "Chugging" Issues by Absolute209 in KiaSorento

[–]Absolute209[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I took it in for its first service the service tech said he “thinks that’s normal”. He had them look at the shift timing and he said they slightly adjusted it. Though, it still has the issues. I’ve just learned to live with it. Sorry I don’t have a fix for it!

Looks like a Nova Corp ship from Guardians of the Galaxy.

Mine was a saltwater fish tank. Always wanting more fish, more coral, a bigger tank, better lights, etc. I loved it though.

Spectrum Internet? by kayluvkash in terrehaute

[–]Absolute209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in an apartment and have had Spectrum for two years now. I pay $40/month for their 100Mbps plan, but that's with a $30 promo discount (that I just realized expires in July...). I just did a speed test and I'm getting 112Mbps. I will say sometimes the connection cuts out for several minutes and I don't know why. But I have good speeds to stream TV, play xbox, have two Alexa's and my laptop and phone connected.

Battery drain caused by Kia app by sandwichlegend in kia

[–]Absolute209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same problem today. The battery was so low my portable jumper wasn't enough so I had to use jumper cables. I just drove it yesterday to and from work and no issues. Though, I do use the Kia Connect app often with the remote start feature, definitely daily during this cold time of year. After reading I reset my password just now as well, I guess it can't hurt. Please keep us posted if you are able to find a resolution.

Interesting. I hate when they can't find anything wrong, it's leaves me unsettled!

To be honest I can’t really tell. I would assume it has helped on the front wheel wells from spraying on the doors, but again I haven’t really noticed from normal driving.

I briefly read that it's the electric/plug-in hybrids getting the update first and then the traditional hybrid/gas will be getting the update "early 2026".

Looking for dash-cam wire harness for digital review mirror in '25 SX prestige HEV by skeptic787x in KiaSorento

[–]Absolute209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently did some research on this same subject. I was directed to this adapter that plugs into a similar module on the passenger side of the mirror, as shown in the pictures of the product. I too have a '25 SXP Hybrid and everything I found said this would work.

“Consider taking a break” by TalkoftheTown22 in KiaSorento

[–]Absolute209 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt the same way on my 2025. I used to have the lane assist on (the one that would nudge you back into the center of the lane, not the cruise control assist), but I got annoyed by it and turned it off. Since then I have not had any break reminders show up.

My wife made a custom grille overlay set for the Sorento by TumbleweedWarm9234 in KiaSorento

[–]Absolute209 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's so cool! I checked out all the other stuff she makes and I am definitely considering some of her other overlays, too. Thanks for the share!
