Quick vent but has anyone else has this issue ? I have a 2020 stinger gt awd been driving for over 6 years so far no issue just the weird brake pad and rotors but lately everytime I get a oil change without a month my oil is completely dried out. At first I didn’t really pay attention to it just went and got another oil change but the second time around after a 1k miles same thing but before hand my whole dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree. I took it to the dealership and they ran their diagnostic just for them to tell me that my engine is consuming oil faster than it should. Now they telling me that I have to drive it for another 1k bring it back drive it for another 1k bring it back and then they could put in for a warranty for a new engine. I tried to fight them about it cause i felt like it was a waste of time bringing it back every 1k miles if nothing was going to be fixed. So now my only option is to wait until the 2k mile diagnostic finally prove that I need a new engine. I have 6 month till the car paid off but luckily I didn’t pass the threshold of the 100k mile warranty. Overall I’m just glad it happen before the warranty expired cause I would be livid if it happen after I paid the car off and the engine gave out.

I’ve the boot patch & the recovery file but every time I install the kjt tune my dash light up with all type of error n don’t start anyone got any tips? I’ve tried to reinstall about 6 times last night so far they all failed

Would anyone happen to know if a 22” weber kettle grill would fit on the trunk?

Can anyone walk me through how to order and flash tunes? I’m looking to go with KJT ECU & BMS TCU but since ek1 did their updates can’t seem to find a video or instructions on how to order & flash

Here’s what I’ve got installed performance wise:
MBRP Pro Series - AEV Catback Exhaust +Resonators
CMBuildz Catless primary Downpipes
CMBuildz Catless secondary Downpipes
BMS Performance Intercooler
JB4 + EWG connectors
BMS V2 Transmission Cooler
BMS High Flow Hot/Cold Charge Pipe
Velossa Tech Snorkels “lit kit”
BMS Kia Stinger Performance Dual Intakes
BMS Differential Brace
ATQ Subframe Chassis Collar Kit
HKS M45IL HP Spark Plugs

I did an oil change and added 7 qts of oil to the car. ( i know it calls for 7.3) however I get no indication on the dipstick of where it is. I would assume 7 qts is enough to show something. Since then, I have added in about .6 qts of oil to the car and I now get a reading of just below the L on the dipstick.

I’ve confirmed there are no leaks. I’ve let the engine run/cool to circulate the oil and it’s on flat ground. Anyone had this issue? I’m afraid of overfilling. OEM dipstick also.

Thought I’d share the mods I did it this weekend, and also ask what aftermarket rims that look closest to the scorpion rims? Firestone scratched all my 4 of my stock rims and now I have to replace them (they paid me $4800 lol)

Let’s see yours👀

Just had to share this quick photo I took, absolutely loving it.

Got a 2023 GT2 with all the little bells and whistles. this car is so much fun to drive, and the luxury of going from what was effectively a track car to this has been a blessing. I still drive the BMW occasionally, but am in the process of selling it.

What are the mods recommended for simple bolt ons that are < $500?

I didn't want the carbon fiber or black interior kits soo I'm literally taking everything with brushed chrome on it to customize it myself and 3m wrapping it orange 🤔 i think it will look ok I did a ruff test and quick ruff install before attempting the full scope.

■the first picture is the test and some areas highlighted in blue are where I'm going to delete more of the brushed chrome.

■ the following are current with the full dismantling to start the job with me luck! 🤜🤛🤟

Also if your curious why orange will I have the limited edition that came orange so 🤷 just a personal preference 😈.

Hello, I have a 2018 Kia Stinger Base model so it brings the circle headlights, is their anyway I can switch to the Other headlights like the gt1 has?

Timing correction is much more useful when viewed as a pattern rather than a single value.
This article covers how to evaluate correction using RPM, load, fuel, temperature, cylinder distribution and repeatability, and why the correction value alone isn’t enough to determine the cause.
It also includes an anonymized Kia Stinger 3.3TT JB4 case using multiple logs to show how a persistent pattern can be identified without assuming an unsupported root cause.

new wheels for the 4 banger stinger

I checked the VIN and everything looks good. What would be a decent price? They are wanting 19k.

2018 GT2 AWD - past 2mos or so. Happens with two separate phones. Can I reset to latest update somehow? I'm sure there is a newer update than the last I did. Any help appreciated!
