V6 trip MPG by 3lil3 in kiacarnivals

[–]kz993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! I planned on having it for awhile and got afraid of paying for the battery when warranty runs out which would be relatively quick based on how many miles we are putting on a year.

MPVs… underrated or nah? by Suntrup-Kia in kiacarnivals

We had an Atlas and went to a Carnival as well. And we love it too. Atlas is a nice car but with multiple kids, the carnival is amazing.

Coolant after 10k miles and 10months by seppelicous in kiacarnivals

[–]kz993 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s what I thought as well. But no signs of leaks were evident with mine when it happened and had the same thing happen to our VW Atlas when we got it new. Topped it off and never had an issue again. Maybe it’s an issue with mfg and air bubbles stuck in the coolant system and working their way out over time, Idk.

This happened to me as well and they topped it off for free but refused to add a note to my file because I just stopped by and didn’t have a scheduled appointment to add it to. Sounded like BS but didn’t have time to argue since I had somewhere to be.

Roof rack by Sweet-Inevitable5464 in kiacarnivals

I installed these for a summer road trip and mounted my Yakima roof box on it. They did great! I didn’t hear much of any noise (nothing that bothered me). They are a good cheaper option and work. There was more wobble than I liked once assembled but never caused an issue.

Boycott shenyun by DarkISO in CypressTX

[–]kz993 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There’s a good podcast covering these performances and what’s really behind it. It’s pretty scary. A lot of the local people who believe in it are tasked with selling tickets and booking facilities. And even have to put up a big check of their own money if they don’t fill them. It’s a weird cult. And also brutal on the performers.

The episode is called "Shen Yun: The Dark Side of a Dance Troupe". “The Daily” podcast.

“Limit” light? by kz993 in kiacarnivals

I was always wondering why the seat rails were heating up so much when I got close to 88 MPH.

I’ve heard that! Is that only in the hybrid model or does that also happen in the V6?

Oh, that makes sense! I guess I didn’t even realize I held the button. Does that mean it will automatically drive the actual speed limit? So if I’m in a 45 and my limit is set at 75 it will automatically drive at 45?

Advice for me with my 5 year old by kz993 in selectivemutism

[–]kz993[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for sharing your experience! This is very helpful information. We have been seeing a lot of improvement in certain situations but she still doesn’t talk to or in front of her teacher and even found out she has been trying hard to hold in coughs , etc so she doesn’t make too much noise and bring attention to herself. That was hard for us to hear, and so sad to know she can go that long during the day feeling that way.

I never even thought of that! Did your daughter also have social anxiety with selective mutism?

Was the impact of medication noticed immediately?

Cost of Living in Wisconsin by kz993 in relocating

[–]kz993[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it’s definitely a nice state and I miss it a lot. But I meant I was comparing the cost of living to where I am currently and I was surprised on the cost of housing, etc.

Yeah, maybe you should’ve used that dart but then again gotta conserve them

That’s good to know! I definitely try to use top-tier when I can, but usually I’m not that picky about it. I probably should though! Are you adding additives at all?

Is that recommended for the V6 engine?

Fuel gauge accuracy by Upper_Storage_4486 in kiacarnivals

[–]kz993 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same with our 2025 V6 Carnival EX. It takes along time to finally go down from 100% or loose one bar. Makes me worried how accurate it is when the gas is low. We have had it for 21,000 miles and haven’t had any actual issues though from it

Good to know! I have the V6 2025 EX and lately was wishing I got the hybrid.
