I didn’t consult SVC but since there is absolutely no connection to the wiring harness, there shouldn’t be any concern. It runs off a separate circuit and has a separate fuse, relay and the wiring is of great quality. But I feel it’s the safest option compared to changing fogs which involves badly made ‘couplers’ or having octo Q projector replacements.

In the hindsight, I knew that this feature would make a comeback during the FL Creta’s launch ; but they giving it from HTX is indeed appreciated!

Aside, I hope that they haven’t compromised some other feature in the view of this.

I don't think Creta FL launch has got anything to do with it. It should have been some semi conductor chip shortage, which would have lowered supply of this and hence it was restricted only to X Line. Even when launched it was available from HTX onwards.

I don't think they have omitted anything for adding this feature back. So kudos to Kia!

I took delivery of Dec manufactured Seltos GTX+ model on 10th Jan and this feature was missing. I am peeved with Kia after reading this. Couldn't they have done this before itself. What was the point of removing a feature for just a month. I hope this can be retro-fitted by ASC.

I've enquired the same and retrofitting involves changing the buttons and the motors for every door. Apparently with Auto Up-Down comes an anti-pinch feature that requires a different motor.

This much effort and ensuring it works as expected will be a big headache and cost-prohibitive. At the time of removing this feature, KIA reduced ex-showroom by 2k and now they will charge at least 5-10 times of this for giving this feature.

Seems like they have retained the prices.

Given how Hyundai is advertising the new improved structural strength of Creta, did Kia miss a trick by not advertising the same things back when FL Seltos was launched?

No one knew about it barring a few who did an in-depth research about new seltos.

I read the product module of new seltos back when it was launched and it has the same reinforcements that creta is advertising so much about.

I meant cost in terms of getting this feature retro-fitted by ASC.

Finally got the OTA update for my Seltos HTX NA yesterday, it was smooth. It asked to switch off the engine. I locked my car and left. After 30 minutes got the message that the OTA update is completed via Kia connect app.

My update has been stuck in this way since 2 days. It's not going ahead. I tried to restart the car but it's stuck here.What should I do?

PS : I am able to use the infotainment but whenever I go to the update settings I am seeing this since 2 days.

Please speak to your service advisor to see if there is any option to cancel the update and then probably try to update the same via USB manually

I am considering Seltos Petrol GTX+ version as next vehicle. KIA only has DCT option in Petrol for and does not have IVT transmission in GTX+ trim.

Can anyone comment on real world average with Seltos DCT transmission in city conditions like Mumbai, Bangalore etc.?

KIA uses Dry-Clutch DCT which, although rare, is prone to overheating in heavy traffic. It all depends on your commute. If you have to travel in heavy traffic regularly, its better to consider other transmissions. IF your travel is during non-peak hours or mostly highway, go ahead with the DCT. Shifts are quick and you'll be smitten by the performance.
