Auto-hold brakes?

[Royalstorm]

Hey. Anyone know what brake (or brakes) are employed when auto-hold is initiated?

Same brakes that you applied.

It electronically holds the brake pedal for you, even the rear brake lights stay lit as it would when you applied the brakes.

Ok. Thanks. I have a vibration hum (that I posted about previously) that occurs when the brake pedal is slowly released after a complete stop but also is present when auto-hold disengages. I?m trying to figure out where it is originating and was hoping it was just the parking brake, as that would make it easier to localize the problem.

Any updates with customer service from Kia?

Yeah, customer service from Kia direct has been top notch! They have gone out of their way to call me and my local dealership. Car is scheduled for more service in a few days and they are going to give me a rental while the Stinger is there. I just want to make sure they actually hear the sound, as it is only is noticeable after highway driving. And of course we are supposed to have a big snowstorm the day the car is to be dropped off. I?m not super excited with the prospect of them driving it during a storm so I?m going to try and get the highway drive done before I drop it off and ask that they look at it right away.

Hopefully it'll get resolve this time. We're also expecting snow on Thurs, wish summer would come already lol.

Someone found a tech bulletin on another Kia model. The parking brake is a small drum, not the rear disc brake, and the cable going to that drum can vibrate. The solution was a simple cable adjustment. Might be the same on the Stinger.

Please report back when the solution if found.

Interesting. I had found a similar bulletin for a 1999 Maxima.

Update:
Dealership used the chassis-ears and after replicating the sound, they localized it to the exhaust. So now they are going to wait to hear back from Kia about what fix, if any is recommended.
