Keep Your Key Chain Light

While having a dozen keys on your key ring may seem practical, but it can seriously damage your ignition. The heavy weight, combined with bouncing while you drive can cause serious wear and tear on the tumblers in your ignition. The stress from the extra keys can eventually lead to ignition switch failure.In order to keep your ignition switch in proper working order, purchase a lightweight key chain that allows you to separate your ignition key from the others. When you drive, separate your ignition key from the others. A good rule of thumb, if your ignition key “sticks” when you turn on the car, it could be a warning sign that your ignition switch is about to fail. Make sure to take your vehicle in for an ignition service right away, before your ignition switch fails.To schedule a service appointment for you ignition, click on the following link: http://bit.ly/173YxJt

Rumored Kia Soul EV spied for the first time

Up until now, we've only heard rumors about an all-electric version of the second-generation Kia Soul, but these spy shots seem to confirm that the Korean automaker is developing a zero-emission version of its quirky little box-back. Our most recent report has the Kia EV showing up in the first half of next year (likely for MY 2015) with a starting price of around $35,000 (presumably before tax credits) and a range of about 120 miles.

While the front and rear of this prototype remains heavily camouflaged, we can see some differences between this car and the 2014 Soul we saw earlier in the year at the New York Auto Show. For starters, the entire front end seems to be changed, including the hood, headlights and fascia, and we would expect Kia's so-called Tiger Nose grille to be blocked off for improved aerodynamics. Further supporting our shooter's claims that this is an electric vehicle is the fact that the Soul's exhaust pipe is missing from beneath the rear fascia.

Previous reports have indicated that the Soul EV will become "the very-first electic vehicle to be sold in the global market, including the US, Europe and China." It would appear that claim may be validated by technicality only – Nissan sells its Leaf in the US and Europe, and it will reportedly be sold as the Dongfeng Fengshen E30 in China.

Here’s your Car Care Tip of the Week: Change the Air Filter!

Over the winter, your car's air filter can get clogged with salt and other thick debris. A clogged air filter can really lower your fuel efficiency. Replacing a dirty or clogged air filter can improve gas mileage by as much as 10 percent. The recommended interval is every 12,000 miles (19,312 kilometers), but the only real way to know if you need to replace your air filter is take it out and give it a quick inspection. If you're preparing for a long summer of hard driving, then you might as well replace it.
