i got crunchyroll (or any browser related) to work on Android Auto Wireless with no dongle using my S25U OneUI 8.5 (android 16).

You can try just installing this by itself, if it works no need to do the option 2. AABrowser

option 2. install AAAD, install AABrowser trought the app with Shizuku enabled (for silent install)

ps: dont forget to enable desktop mode in the browser.. ps: enable developer mode and unknown sources in Android Auto

AAAD GitHub Shizuku

Finally got around to giving her a much needed bath.

Forgive my bad photoshop skills but put on some 5 spoke wheels I've been looking at getting. Always liked this style and they would be much easier to clean.

I'd love to hear some opinions and see some wheels on your K5 to see if I may need to sway my opinion.

I have a 2025 Kia k5 gt line with the premium package so I have the 12 bose speakers but I want to add a sub to the back nothing that’s a lot of money just something that’s sound good if you guys know any I would appreciate a link I also don’t know what I need to set the sub up as well so I would appreciate any help you guys give me thanks

Just thought of sharing my baby with the community y’all. I call her The Hornet, baby! There is no better car, she is a 10 at everything, performance, power, comfort, you name it ….

I apologize in advance if this isn't the right place to post this but I would like to shout out KDM Accessories for their customer support!

I ordered a few things (reflector tint, vinyl tape for the emblems, a leather keychain and pedal shifter extensions) from KDM Accessories a while ago and I never received my package.

I had sent an email that I never received them and down the thread also noted I wasn't too worried about it.

I was not expecting them to resend the items again free of charge. I was even able to change the shipping address to a more reliable address as well.

KDM accessories has a few nice things for the Kia K5.

Thank you very much KDM Accessories.

This is the worst attempt at a dashcam I think I’ve ever seen in my life. I bought a Fitcam for my Kia K5 and they promise an OEM look, fit, and finish but when the camera arrives it is a rattling mess that doesn’t fit at all. They use much thicker plastic for the clips than the holder can handle, there are giant spaces in the back with exposed wiring, and the whole thing is loose and I can move it easily with my hand. Not to mention the sounds it makes when I go over any bump. Honestly I’m waiting for it to fall down.

Whats even worse though is their customer service. They don’t stand behind their products AT ALL! Instead I get countless emails asking for photos, then more photos, then more photos, then videos, then I have to wait for their technical team, and finally they told me I have to pay for shipping and customs back because nobody else has had this issue.

A quick Facebook search shows many people have fitment issues and this company couldn’t care less.

I highly recommend any other brand but this one. They’re an absolute scam.

I love this damn car

Brand new 2026 K5 GT and I’m already hearing squeaking and rattles in this thing. One that’s particularly annoying is this high pitched squeaking whenever I go over a rough road or a bump. I can’t seem to locate where it’s coming from but it happens more in warm weather and is definitely somewhere on the drivers side near the vents or headliner.

Has anyone heard this noise before or found where it’s coming from? It’s really putting a damper on having a new car as it sounds even worse than my old one!

If anyone knows please let me know because the dealership can’t find where it’s coming from.

Swapped out the center console from a 26'. Took about an hour with the most difficult part being the force it takes to remove the gearshift. Was able to swap over needed switches to keep all the same functions as well as the digital key. Very happy to have normal cup holders now lol.

Did a 60 mile mini road trip today to a hiking spot. So far the car has accumulated about 4200+ miles which isn't much of an accomplishment (For obvious reasons), but so far has been extremely smooth with no issues. Blind spot cameras have also been really good especially on the interstate. I have yet to try launch control but will as soon as I finish the Progressive Snapshot period.
