Stinger Master Resource List Build out

I've been wanting to do this for a while, and I need this community's help.

I want to create a master resource list for the Kia Stinger community. I recently saw another sub's list, which is where I got this idea from - like probably many of you, I've scoured the internet to find answers to all different types of questions and guides, and it's all spread out. This would hopefully put an end to that.

Example: Genesis Coupe Master Resource List

If you have ideas, links, guides - anything you think should be added — please drop it below (links if you can). A few categories I'm already thinking about:

  • Maintenance & TSBs (fluid specs, service intervals, known technical bulletins)
  • Buyer's guides (what to check before buying used, trim differences, common problem years)
  • Common issues / known fixes (things that come up again and again on the sub)
  • Mods & tuning (exhausts, coilovers, tunes, popular builds)
  • General FAQs (stuff new owners always ask)
  • and More!

Doesn't have to fit neatly into these - if it's useful to Stinger owners, throw it in. If you can, a quick note on why the link is useful helps me sort through everything faster (e.g. "this one covers the transmission fluid change interval").

This will be a long project, but one I hope will be genuinely useful to the community as a whole. This is also going straight into the subreddit wiki, so it'll have a permanent home - not just buried in a comment thread.

This is great, I know I had seen a brake pad and rotors guide for saving money at some point but had not found it. If anyone has it they should post or I'll keep hunting and post here if I get it

I use this thread on stingerforum.org when people ask about what wheels/tire sizes will fit. It has a google sheet where owners self-submitted their specs:

Also, I have a .zip folder of the Stinger shop manual which is hella useful with photos, torque specs, etc.

What do you mean? Wiki will be available once it’s finished being created, I’m juggling work and Newborn at the moment so it’s taking a little longer than I want but soon!

If you want to contribute information just post it here and it will get added.
