  1. Your score is 328. Insufficient power may be generated on that platform to cause the differential to explode. What is the rationale for using time and resources to disassemble the front differential and axles?
  2. Greetings everyone, I purchased a 2006 E350 some weeks ago. I have mostly been driving it daily. It has been rather pleasant. While traveling to work today, I saw a faint picture of a battery accompanied by the words "Visit workshop!" on the speedometer display. The lighting of the gauge cluster screen has malfunctioned, rendering it visible only under optimal sunlight conditions. I resolved to measure both batteries using a meter. The primary battery measured 13.1 volts while the vehicle was off and 14.7 volts when the vehicle was operational. It is dated April 2022. The auxiliary battery measured 12.5 volts while the vehicle was off and 12.5 volts when the vehicle was operating. It is dated February 2021. My trunk had a significant leak originating from the passenger side taillight, which has subsequently been rectified. I suspect the BCM. Furthermore, the inside lights that typically activate upon opening the door are nonfunctional, but the radio, seats, and heating/air conditioning systems operate normally. My sunroof is inoperative. Is it typical for my auxiliary battery to remain at 12.5 volts regardless of whether the vehicle is operational? Does this seem to be a BCM issue? I value any perspective. I transitioned from a W126 to this, so I feel rather overwhelmed. Thank you.
  3. It is evident that the problem is mechanical in nature and is not related to the steering angle sensor, which is responsible for monitoring the angle of the steering wheel. It is advisable to refrain from operating the vehicle prior to verifying the issue.
  4. This recalls the occasion when I informed my wife that I could prepare my own luggage for a two-week vacation to New Jersey at a training facility without a rental vehicle. I realized that I neglected to bring underwear. I spent the whole two weeks washing my shorts each night before going to bed.
  5. I own this as well. Resembles water flowing via a hose with each rainfall. There is no water in the cabin, therefore I presume it is draining from the car via these pipes. I have inspected all the carpets, including the front, rear, and cargo areas, and found no dampness whatsoever. It is a very peculiar sound, however. I completely concur.
  6. Indeed, I saw it as well when examining. Indeed, this is frustrating! Are the less expensive options on eBay of satisfactory quality? I could use the broken one, but a new one would secure it more effectively and would not protrude from the side fender.
  7. Examined eBay; all items are new, and the few pre-owned ones lack the tab. No salvage yards in my vicinity own any Kia Souls. The automotive parts website fails to provide a complete listing of the light assembly. Regrettable, since it constitutes just a minor component.
  8. Recently acquired a 2020 Kia Soul GT. It need some modifications and a component is missing. It is located behind the hood, to the side, and is intended for the upper lights (apologies for the inadequate explanation). I was wondering whether it can be purchased new or secondhand, since the light encircling the driver's side is loose without it. The passenger's side component is there, as shown by my circle, but I need the driver's side.
  9. https://kiastuff.com/ The package includes essential components such as a vehicle jack and foam inserts to prevent any movement or noise during transportation. Best wishes.
  10. In my Niro 2020 EX Premium, there was an unoccupied wheel well located under the rear luggage area. Initially, I had to remove a segmented sub layer to access it. I purchased a Kia Niro Spare Tire Kit (M015) for the 2017-2022 model. The kit includes Option 2, which includes a mounted spare tire. I purchased my item two years ago at a cost of $325.
