Proximity alert

Is there anyway to PERMANENTLY turn this proximity alerts off. This is absolutely annoying to have to constantly push the button to turn it off. Going through a drive through, backing out of my garage. Man!!

K5GT rims

Has anyone had the Kia emblem removed for the stock 19 inch rims by chance? I like the rims but dont like the Kia name on them

Sound system

I just got a 2026 k5 gt.. the sound system is terrible ib my opinion. So I went to a few shops today to get quotes and theyre all quoting me over 2k!!

Now, for background, ive been out of the car scene for 20 years, since ive really had no thoughts about ever upgrading during those years. But I remember 20 years ago, u could put a new system in ur car for like.. 500 bucks.

Do I NEED to get an amp and a sound processor?

Oil and perimeter notifications

Doing my first oil change at 1500 miles and it seems like auto shops are confused on the type/weight of the oil the k5 gt should use.

When you google it, it says 20 weight, but then through more research im seeing 30 weight. What is it?

Before anyone says "read the manual" I like to have conversations with my fellow K5 GT compares! Haha

Also, is there anyway to turn off the parking notifications noises other than pushing the button each time? Not gonna lie, I hate all this extra stuff that these cars have nowadays (other than blind spot notifications)

Boost gauge

Is there anyway to see how much boost the k5 gt is putting out? Is there no boost gauge in the cluster?
