Sorted ---- Result.


Called at dealers today and went out with the techi.

You have to "FLOOR" the accelerator pedal to exceed the set limit.

By just exceeding the 80% travel doesn't over ride the system.

Once past the set limit the chimes keep going until the speed reduces to below the set limit.

Glad it's sorted and working as it should.

Did you put your "foot down" about the reversing sensors too 

[eye30]

Did you put your "foot down" about the reversing sensors too 

Yes.

They rang, I think HY HQ while I was there and they came back and told me that all factory fitted on the blue cars are black.

They had 2 blue i30's in the showroom and both are black.

So unless I decide to paint them they will stay black.

I ak them to lodge a complaint with HY UK as I was disappointed that if other colours can be colour coded why they can't do it with the blue.

I mentioned "I'd seen" 2 blue cars with blue coloured sensors but they seemed to think they were fitted as an after market as they can be bought in blue.

Now the Classic, entry model, doesn't have them factory fitted so I'm wondering whether the 2 AlanHo seen may have been the Classic model.

I wait to see if they get a response...

[Doggie 1]

It wouldn't cost much to get them painted anyway, but I think that Hyundai should have done it.

Did you put the pedal to the metal in trying to overcome this limiter thing?

It does not make it clear in the book that that is what you have to do

I'm glad I don't have this, who wants to floor the go pedal to override a device, not me. What does that do to the economy

[Shambles]

TBH I'd never set this thing on. Sounds downright dangerous.

[eye30]

The problem with it is that it clears each time the engine is switched off.  It isn't held inthe car's  memory.

So you have to set the limit each time you start the car. 

[Shambles]

So, you're travelling through the town at 30mph with the limiter set to 30mph, then the road become 40mph limit. Do you reset the device or slam your pedal to the metal to increase speed?

Either way, sounds like hard work to me, and potentially dangerous.

I mean, what if you were busy texting

Why can't the device accept a higher setting using normal throttle movements. Road limit goes from 60 to 80, normal acceleration to 80. CC maintains 80 uphill, SC maintains 80 downhill, simple

If you wish to exceed the set speed you can but until you turn it off you will get chimes ringing.

In flooring the pedal the speed limit system is still active and you will get chimes ringing until you either reduce your speed to below the set limit, turn it of or stop the car and turn the engine off.

[eye30]

Why can't the device accept a higher setting using normal throttle movements. Road limit goes from 60 to 80, normal acceleration to 80. CC maintains 80 uphill, SC maintains 80 downhill, simple 

So say travelling at 30 mph and you wish to reset at say 40 mph you can either:

 - cancel the system and then speed up to 40 MPH and then press the set button
 - press the + button until 40 MPH is displayed
 - floor the pedal until 40 MPH then press the set button.

[Phil №❶]

I would simply forget the 3rd option 

[Shambles]

I wouldn't set it, period.

[Dazzler]

Why can't the device accept a higher setting using normal throttle movements. Road limit goes from 60 to 80, normal acceleration to 80. CC maintains 80 uphill, SC maintains 80 downhill, simple 

That would defeat the purpose If you could just override it by accelerating normally it would be no use at all 

[Phil №❶]

Why Dazz, when I travel with cc my foot is not on the accelerator, but if I need to, I can.

[Dazzler]

Why Dazz, when I travel with cc my foot is not on the accelerator, but if I need to, I can.

But a limiter is just that...(unless you had both in place at the same time it would be recipe to get booked) 

[eye30]

The CC and limiter work independent of each other.

On my car you can't have both on at the same time.

It is either CC or limiter

Oh in that case I reckon I would use CC more than limiter

Don't you guys have speed-limited zones (there is a lot of 30 km/h (18 mph) zones here in Slovenia)?
There are numerous speed traps placed in these zones and I use the limiter regularly while driving through them (usually set to 33 kph). You can just set it and look at the road instead of the speedometer.
The CC in dangerous in this situation because you can't just maintain the 30km/h speed - limiter gives you freedom to drive normally up to 30 km/h.

[Phil №❶]

We have some yuppie suburbs set at 40, 50 in our cbd 60 elsewhere in the metro area & 110 in the country areas of South Australia. 

[Doggie 1]

W.A. is 50 in built-up areas unless otherwise designated, 40 in school zones at school times, 110 open highway.

Neoto is right - the speed limiter is more useful in town than CC because you can drive the car in varying traffic quite normally at any speed below the limit you have set.  I now use it all the time in speed limited areas - especially up here in Scotland where there seems to be cameras everywhere.

Whereas CC keeps the car at a constant speed which is useless in slow-go or stop-start traffic.

[eye30]

Now I know how the speed limiter operates and if need be I can now exceed the set limit I'll be using it around town as we have a number of speed camera's - fixed and mobile.
