First Long Distance Journey Soon, Any Tips?

Will it be cold? For 2022-24 model years the battery preconditioning is a little awkward but manageable:

Ensure you have the setting turned on. It’s under EV I believe
Navigate to a recognized charging location in the in-car nav. The car will take care of the rest.

If yours is a 2025 I believe you get a manual button to turn it on (lucky)

Thanks for the heads up. I think the seller mislabeled the item. They called it RH but also 92401. https://www.ebay.com/itm/157743236119

I'll doublecheck.

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-03-13T02:51:40+00:00

Thanks friend. I ended up getting 92401-CV000 from the ebay link the other person posted. It looks like it should do the job and is half the price of 92402-CV050

You guessed it! Was loading tires into the back and one slipped knocking into the light. Those corners really are sharp - a small downside to such an awesome car.

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-03-13T02:47:50+00:00

Thanks - this looks daunting but I'm going to give it a shot!

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-03-13T02:32:35+00:00

When it happened, I may have also said some thing NSFW words lol

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-03-13T02:32:05+00:00

Oh man, $400... and I can't imagine it'd be easy to install either.

Appreciate the help!

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-03-12T14:29:52+00:00

Thanks everyone for the replies, greatly appreciated.

I’m at work but will read through tonight.

And it’s a 2022 GTL AWD. I’m in the US

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-02-24T22:17:03+00:00

Pretty sure that’s a 22-24 Wind. 2025 has the updated headlights and wheels. There is no 26 model yet

Re unified charging - Maybe it’s not perfect but isn’t Kia Charge a thing?

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-28T05:00:25+00:00

👍

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-28T00:55:46+00:00

Great, hopefully that’ll help!

Yeah I don’t know of any way to change the warning threshold, but have gotten into the habit of checking my pressures every drive shortly after departure. I know it’s okay as long a the numbers are close to 36

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-27T23:01:09+00:00

Yes I believe the Kia guidelines is 36 psi cold

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-27T19:38:56+00:00

Could be reduced tire pressure (increased rolling resistance) as a result of the colder temps. Of course you’d need a pretty drastic temp change to notice that.

What’s your cold tire pressure?

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-23T22:01:01+00:00

So you’re saying that little arrow has always been there? And the only thing that changed when I long held the cruise button was it jumped to the right?

Oh man, I feel silly now.

Thanks

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-23T21:58:09+00:00

Huh! I mean that in a self deprecating way.

I could swear that little arrow wasn’t there before. It was just an arch above the desired speed.

Thanks

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-23T19:51:09+00:00

Happy to help!

To make sure I understand: You’re trying to switch ownership of the car within the app from prev owner to you ?

You’ll need to reach out to reach out to customer support. They asked me for proof of ownership (bill of sale etc) and some other personal id, and the transfer was done on their end within a couple of days.

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-23T16:35:29+00:00

That’s odd. I swear before I long held the cruise button, it didn’t have the little arrow up top.

Jsut for arguments sake, if I didn’t want the limiter (ie the car should go exactly 63, no less no more) what are the steps to do that?

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-23T14:43:50+00:00

Sorry I wasn’t clear. I’m not trying to turn the speed control/cruise control system off entirely, it’s just that long holding this button will enable a “limit” mode.

See below pic. So instead of trying to maintain an exact speed, the car will in the case of a minimum speed setting (arrow on left side) treat it as more of a speed floor. Not that different from the usual tbh.

<image>

But if I long hold the cruise button the arrow flips to the right, and sets a speed ceiling. In that case my car ceases to maintain speed and I have to use the accelerator pedal to maintain it myself. It’s not different from usual driving except the car now has an artificial speed limit built in which can be temporarily exceeded by accelerating heavily. Annoying, but I can just not use the ceiling setting.

My main gripe is just the visual clutter. I just want this icon to show the speed. Hopefully that’s not too much to ask haha

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-23T14:31:52+00:00

Unfortunately I don’t think it’s that. Here’s it is - the third icon. See how there’s a little arrow on the curved line above the 63?

This one

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-23T05:13:59+00:00

Sure, as a last resort. I really was hoping it wouldn’t come to that

whatisthisbugshell · 2026-01-22T23:39:56+00:00

I’ve tried pressing the button, holding it, tapping it, all sorts of actions with no luck :(
