    What phone mounts are you using on the Telluride?

    I’m holding out for Proclip USA to develop a custom one for the Telluride. I’ve used them in the last and current vehicle. Very happy. https://www.proclipusa.com/product-finder/vehicle

    Kia Telluride wheel lugnut size

    I just prefer the look over standard and because I was loosing the wheel locks the spline lug nut adds an extra level of protection. But in reality I’m not sure that wheel theft is a big issue where I live/work/travel to.

    Kia Telluride Issues

    That's very scary to drive a vehicle where you can't open a door. Tell the dealer to provide a comparable vehicle or you will rent one and expense to them. Keep calling Kia corporate every day; if you were in So Cal, I'd suggest you simply drive there. If you financed thought Kia, Kia...

    IIHS will be crash testing the Telluride tomorrow

    I’d be pretty surprised if the vehicle didn’t do well. Cars tend to through lots of simulated crashes and test ones during development. Kia would want a family hauler to excell at safety! I’m curious how well their automatic emergency breaking and pedestrian detection works. Several tested...

    Kia Telluride Issues

    This seems like a safety issue that Kia corporate should be all over. What if you had someone in the passenger seat and an emergency occurred only to discover that the door wouldn’t open. Kia engineers should be very interested in how it failed so they can root cause and resolve. I’m really...

    2020 Hyundai Palisade preview

    I concur. I saw one driving around in So cal wirh mfg plates and the front is fugly. I’m sure that there will be takers for it and relive some pressure on the Telluride

    Kia Telluride wheel lugnut size

    Thanks. I agree. I have no idea why Kia didn’t include black lugnuts.

    Is the Telluride considered a full size SUV?

    But I believe interior volume is close to full-size rivals

    CD player options

    You could also just stream from Spotify, Amazon Music, etc ... CarPlay works great, haven’t tried Android Auto.

    Kia Telluride wheel lugnut size

    Anytime. Also keep one of the spline adapters with the tire change kit in the event you get a flat tire. Good luck!

    CD player options

    Ripping them is not difficult to copy then to a usb thumb drive. Unfortunately there’s not an aux input in the car that I’ve seen. You could also try a Bluetooth transmitter, but I do not know if the vehicle will pair to an A2DP only device. Like this...

    Kia Telluride wheel lugnut size

    Anytime. If you get them just insure they are threaded correctly. If it doesn’t screw right on by hand, then the lug nut thread may be defective. Contact the seller and they’ll send you replacements.

    Kia Telluride wheel lugnut size

    Here’s the Amazon link. Very inexpensive, $20. Took approximately 30 min to swap out and torque to 85 lbs. I didn’t want or like the wheel locks so I left them off. These require included spline adapter to remove...

    Yup. I got the same lug nuts. Look much better on black rims

    How's everyone satellite radio reception?

    So far so good even though downtown LA. My Land Rover sat radio would cut out if a butterfly flew overhead! I had better reception using the Sirius app on my phone. I’ll switch to streaming in the Telluride using SiriusXM app and CarPlay as it’s not my daily driver and I get streaming for...

    Some dealers are asking $12-15k over MSRP for the Telluride

    I believe in the car business these are called gravy!
