Description and operation

Description

Installed on the intercooler inlet pipe, the RCV (Recirculation Valve) Control Solenoid Valve operates the RCV actuator which controls the by-pass passage of the turbocharger compressor. When the throttle is closed with the engine running at cruise rpm (tip-out), the turbocharger boost pressure increases rapidly. The pressure wave strikes a compressor blades causing a knocking noise. To prevent this, the ECM opens the recirculation valve which allows excessive boost pressure to vent back to the air cleaner side of the turbocharger compressor.

Kia Stinger (CK) 2018-2023 Service Manual: Recommended cold tire inflation pressures

All tire pressures (including the spare) should be checked when the tires are cold. “Cold Tires” means the vehicle has not been driven for at least three hours or driven less than 1.6 km (one mile). Recommended pressures must be maintained for the best ride, top vehicle handling, and minimum tire wear. For recommended inflation pressure refer to “Tire and wheels” in chapter 8.
