I heard that the automatic transmission in a Kia Ceed can be a bit jerky, especially on downshifts. Is this a common issue or is it just a matter of getting used to?
ReplyI have been driving a Kia Ceed for a couple of years now and I can confidently say that the automatic transmission is quite responsive and smooth. However, it is important to note that it may take a bit of time to get used to the downshifts, especially if you are coming from a different car model. My advice would be to take it for a test drive and see how it feels before making a decision.
I had a Kia Ceed for a while and I did experience some jerky downshifts, but it was not a major issue. I found that adjusting my driving style a bit helped to minimize the jerks. Instead of braking suddenly and then accelerating, I would ease off the gas pedal a bit earlier and let the car slow down on its own before applying the brakes. Give it a try and see if it makes a difference for you.
I recently purchased a Kia Ceed and I have not noticed any issues with the automatic transmission. It shifts smoothly and there are no jerks or hesitations. My advice would be to periodically check and change the transmission fluid according to the manufacturer's recommendations, as this can greatly impact the performance of the transmission.
