Hi everyone, I have, from already a couple of months, this annoying issue: usually at a red light or at a Stop sign, after driving more than 15 minutes, the engine stops and have to restart it. To avoid it, I have to keep the brake pushed, and the gas pedal pushed a little bit too. Never happens...

Hello All Kia Forte Enthusiast. I am new on this forum. Looking for a clue about my daughter's Forte. Recently , she was driving on highway at 80km/h with cruise control on. Approaching a little hill , she decided to disengage cruise ( but cruise still on ) and then to push throttle pedal to...

2017 Kia Forté5 SX has a factory equipped sunroof. The gasket on the sunroof has started to split and separate. Attached pictures show split, this gasket is attached to the window and not the metalwork. I have attempted to compress it back into place but have been unsuccessful. I live in NE...

Really keen if anyone can help me here. I have a brand new Cerato GT (AU RHD model, but fundamentally the same car as the NA LHD model). There is a very annoying rattle that comes from the roof liner just behind the centre cabin light, about 30cm behind the back of the sunroof. I can only...

Hello, any one had their air vents break after repeated use? I am trying to find a replacement for mine buy usually I have found the other vents and not the center left.

My 2011 Kia Forte has developed a ticking noise coming from the engine. the car sounds more like a diesel than a petrol. The noise is much more audible when idling - hitting the accelerator reduces it massively. I ran a diagnostic test and got a P0011 code. My initial thought has been to do with...

I was rear ended/pushed into another car last month and as a result had some extensive body work done on my 2019 Kia Forte LXS. I picked the car up from the body shop a few days ago. I noticed after picking up the car that the alignment was off as the car veers to the right and I have to hold...

Passenger side front blinker stopped working...replaced bulb and it stopped again about a week later. Now the brake lights have stopped working (the side lights only - the third light on the trunk is fine). Anyone seen this before and might have some insights? Thanks, -=ZM=-

I just leased a 2022 Kia Forte, the dealership has assigned the vehicle to have a 42% residul value at the end of the lease (original value $25,462, value at end of lease $10,830) is 42% typical for residul value? I have seen other posts where the value of a Kia after 5 years should be about...

I just purchased a 2021 Kia Forte Gt with the 1.6 turbo engine with a manual transmission. Car had 188 miles at delivery. I was cruising on the freeway back home and made it about 12 miles before I was met with a battery discharge light. I though that was odd because it’s brand new but thought...

My Kia Cerato 2010 S (140000kms) has a extremely low clutch biting point to where I only have to lift the pedal 2cm off the ground before it starts to engage. This cause extreme jerking as the room for error is high. I have experimented with trying to adjust the clutch pedal but it has no...

Hello! I own a 2015 Kia Cerato (Forte in the US) Sedan, the car has been treated very well, and has done 58,000kms. For some time now (approx. a year) I have been hearing a rumbling or rattling noise coming from the rear of the car. As it is under warranty (until early next year - hence I have...

Hi! I purchased a 2016 Forte EX a month or so ago. I have a problem with the door locks. Driver door works with the fob and control buttons but the other doors dont work. I tried pulling the fuse and nothing. Can’t actually manually lock the doors either, any help?

I'm trying to replace the front bumper on this 2017 Forte. Got all the 3 clips and 1 screw from inside the wheel wells. Got the 4 screws from the top edge... just under the front edge of the hood. Pulled the 4 or 5 clips from the underside of the bumper. And I think that should be it, right...

Late last winter, especially when it was very cold, I had an issue with my car making a clicking noise that would lessen as the engine or weather warmed. It was very similar to having a plastic card clipped to your bike so it would flick on the tire spokes. Took it to O'Reilly's autoparts to...

I checked the fuses, made sure the connections were tight and looking more for an answer than a fix because that is almost certainly going to require a replacement of the control unit in the center of the dashboard. A while ago I noticed that when the seasons would change and the temperature...

Does anyone know how to access user settings in a 2017 Forte LX (like where you can change the auto lock feature and all that)? I’ve checked the manual and the internet but had no luck.

Hi all, as stated in the title above, I did engine bay cleaning by washing it using gardener hose (no jet water) plus with alternator, distributor & battery being covered by plastic. The problem came after cleaning it I gave about 2-3 hours to dry the engine. But when I'm trying to start the...

Hello guys, Please help me if anyone has an idea. I have a Kia Forte 2014 LX, I purchased my car without a key fob, just the metal key and I have taken the car to some key shops to program a key fob but no one has been able to program it. They use the handheld and try to use different cars...

My 2011 Forte Koup is suddenly in limp mode despite having no signs of issues the day before. The gas pedal is hardly detecting and the car will only get to around 1000-1100 rpm before dying back down and not detecting the pedal at all. I used my OBD scanner and got the codes 0123 and 0223, as...
