What does 2000 rpm do on a Kia?
Your saying 2000 RPM is what caught my attention, that’s about where mine does the momentary lagging shift. Took me a while to find out about it being 2nd to 3rd, even now not 100% positive of that but I’ve been able to count all 5 gear shifts from 1st to 6th.
Why do I not feel acceleration in my Kia?
Also keep in mind the pedal is not connected to the engine mechanically – it has a position sensor that sends an electric signal. You will not feel a pressure difference no matter what’s happening. Maybe this is a case of needing the “best throttle mod ever”. Hmmm. Maybe the deadspot is worse in the second gens..
What to do if Kia dealership disagrees with you?
With the dealer disagreeing with you that there’s a problem, it puts you in a difficult situation. You could try pushing it up the KIA chain of command now, but it’s likely to be difficult unless you have some professional help. I recommend that you find a good local shop, and discuss this situation with the owner/manager.

Why is my boat losing power at full throttle?
Unfortunatly it was pissing gas out of the top of the carb so I pulled it off and gave it a good cleaning. I got the float and needle de-gunked and it runs like a dream.
