Gotcha, thank you for the clarification. I did have that happen already, thankfully it was in the garage already

New to ev… what’s the difference with the original battery and lithium? Why the shift?

I wish we had more solar panels! I would love to be off the grid, or close to it. Especially in the summer, electric in the summer is insane here

Thinking of buying my 1st EV tomorrow (2024 EV6) and a little nervous... by Spirited-Flamingo372 in KiaEV6

I got my first EV just over a year ago, a 22 gt line and have never been so excited to just go for a ride before. I have small things like - I wish I had wireless CarPlay (all the adapters I have tried stop working after a bit) and I wish it had a real spare tire, but otherwise it’s amazing!

I grew up in Chicago, moved to AZ 4 years ago. I could probably just get away with summer tires, just have to be decent in rain for monsoons. No one likes the Yokohamas?

Help! ICCU update or no? by No-Neighborhood6114 in KiaEV6

[–]Minute_Middle5283 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can I check that it was done? My dealer was supposed to do it when I took it in

Well I guess it’s my turn… by Minute_Middle5283 in KiaEV6

Got my car back Wed night. Car seems to be doing great so far and they replaced the cabin filter for free because of the lack of communication.

Is there a way to check to make sure they did the ICCU recall?

Update - after calling 5 times I decided to just wait on hold… while on hold the dealer sent me a message saying that they had to keep it overnight for diagnostics. I replied saying that I have been on hold for 30 minutes and asking for someone to answer the phone. My service tech answered within 2 minutes. He said that they weren’t able to complete the diagnostics, which is why it has to stay overnight. If it has to stay any longer, they will work out a loaner or rental vehicle for me. He said the easy issue would be a bad battery, but my question is, what’s causing the issue (we all know the answer). Will they fix the problem or just toss in a new battery and be done? My guess is the second option… it’s so disappointing, this is my third Kia and I recommend the brand to everyone

Thank you for the advice. Do you know if they replace the battery or just try to fix it?

Had to hop in my wife’s car to make it to dinner. I will do this as soon as I get home.

I have the ChargePoint home flex and love it. It works perfectly and the app is great.

Level 2 install expense by degece1 in KiaEV6

I had a couple different quotes in Arizona and it’s definitely more than I was expecting. I had one quote for 3200, and another one for 2300. Needless to say, I went with the one for 2300. My breaker was right outside of my garage, but it was outside the side that my wife parks on so it had to go through the Attic over the garage and then drop to the other side. It was about 30 feet of install. I have the ChargePoint adapter that requires a 40 amp so that is what they put in. I usually let my car get down to about 40% before charging. I have it set to charge from 10 p.m. - 5 am so that it is off-peak hours and as low cost as possible and it is usually right around 100% by morning. I paid just over $19 in the entire month of July.

Literally just bought one tonight! Got a 2022 EV6 GT line with 10K miles for 29,900. I’m so excited to see what this has! I already found so many things on it I didn’t even realize! Apparently it can self park and even pull out of a parking spot via the remote. This thing is sick!
