Kia Sportage SX+ Speed Warning?

I have an issue with my Kia Sportage SX+ which does not warn me when I exceed the speed limit. This is important to me because I’ve only got 3 points left and I can’t afford to get pinged for speeding because if I do I will lose my licence.

I purchased my Sportage brand spanking new in February 2024 so I’m assuming it would be a 2023/24 model. After some research I found almost everyone was complaining about how annoying it was to be continuously getting a speed warning. And there’s me trying to work out how to turn it on. 😖

Kia Sportage SX+ 2023/24 Not Working?

Kia Sportage SX+ 2023/24 Speed Warning Issue

Just so you know, I have never, ever got a speed warning from my Kia, but I didn’t know until recently that it was a problem. As you can see from the image on the right, which I took from my Kia, according to the settings I should be getting some sort of warning.

All my research shows that;

Yes, the 2023 Kia Sportage SX+ includes “Intelligent Speed Limit Assist” (ISLA), which informs the driver of speed limits and can help maintain speed within those limits. 

Here’s a more detailed breakdown: 

  • Intelligent Speed Limit Assist (ISLA):This system uses road sign recognition to display speed limits on the dashboard and can also help the driver maintain speed within those limits.
  • How it works:
    • The system reads speed limit signs and displays them on the dashboard.
    • It can also inform the driver to adjust the set speed of Manual Speed Limit Assist and/or Smart Cruise Control to help stay within the speed limit.
    • The driver can choose to have the system either inform the driver of speed limits or actively assist in maintaining speed within those limits.
  • Other safety features:The 2023 Kia Sportage SX+ also includes other safety features like lane keep and lane follow assist, blind spot assist, front parking sensors, a rear-view camera, autonomous emergency braking (AEB) with forward collision warning, and airbags.

My Dialings With The Kia Sportage SX+ Local Service Centre

So, hear I am thinking that My Sportage is not working as it should, so I took it to my local Kia Service centre which is the Hillcrest Service Centre. They assured me that my car did not have that feature. I asked them how that could be possible when I have all the options to turn it on and off from the car settings. Also I knew it had ISLA, (Intelligent Speed Limit Assist) I could turn it on and off. When it was on the car would display the speed limit on the dash and it would change whenever I passed into a new speed zone, even when passing road works! Apparently it know because of the windscreen camera which recognises the road speed limit signs.

But they insist I don’t have, saying the tested another Sportage that was the same model as mine. I’m wondering though if they tested an SX and not an SX+? Shit, mine has heated seats, Keyless start and so many other features,ho could it not have speed warning?

Do You Own A Kia Sportage SX+?

So, I’m putting it out to you if you own a SX+ model, does your warn you when you exceed the speed limit?

Why Doesn’t My iPhone Compass Work Solution

Why Doesn't My iPhone Compass Work

Why Doesn’t My iPhone Compass Work is an issue that’s been bothering me all day. I’ve been searching the net for ages and nothing was working. All my settings were right. Waving it around in a figure motion 8 to calibrate it was totally useless and I just felt like a fool.

I even went outside to make sure it wasn’t exposed to a magnetic field and when that didn’t work I was about to give up when it suddenly hit me!

A while back I did a post on the Best Leather Protective Cover For The iPhone and that cover happened to have magnets in it. Once I took that cover off it worked fine. Such an easy solution I’m surprised it never came to me knowing that cover had magnets in it and all.

I hope this post helped you

Why I Love Shorts And Should You Do Them

Why I Love Shorts

This post is about why I love shorts, and I admit that I always thought YouTube shorts were a waste of time. But now I do them weekly, especially for my Laughaholics channel. If you’re considering starting your own shorts you should read my Is It Worth Doing Shorts On YouTube post.

I love publishing shorts because they’re so easy to do, they don’t take much time to make and some of them get a lot of views as well as add to my subscribers. Although I’ve found growing the subscriber count using shorts is a little slow I believe every little bit counts.

My Popular Shorts

why I love shorts

I’ve found folk love Little Johnny and so he appears in a lot of my shorts. Little Johnny Meets The Pastor was only published three days ago and it already has over 500 views.

My most popular joke was How old are you mummy joke. That video has nearly 2k views and boosted my subscribers by 6.

My most popular shorts wasn’t a joke at all. It was a video of my cute granddaughter titled the toddler who could be doing an audition and that short has over 2.2k views and earned me 4 new subscribers. Cute toddlers are usually a good subject for shorts.

Why I Love Shorts Summary

I love shorts because they are easy to make, take very little time, unless I use my cool animation software and they get me heaps of views, which is important if you want to get monetized, as well as help me to grow my subscriber base.
