I've had the car over a month and been delighted with it. I got a reasonable deal from Burton Kia so got the car for £15k with just under 8k miles on the car.
Couple of queries
1. Is the service interval every 12 months. My Kia says it's not due a service until 31/12/2022 but it was last served 14/11/2021 so I would have thought by 13/11/2022 to preserve the warranty
2. Some concerning threads re tensioners

I've not had any service action mentioned in my Kia account?
Is this fault only affecting Sportages and not Ceed's?
Touch wood I've not had an issue with the car.
I am due to take the car to Spain for a couple of months and could do without any hiccups?
