Hi everyone.
First of all, accept my apologies for any grammar/spelling errors. English is not my first language.
I have a 2013 1.4 CRDi 16V 90hp Hyundai. I have used it 60% urban / 40% highway. We have a mandatory service check here for all cars, periodicity depends on how old the car is.
I did not pass it because of gas emissions.
Truth to be told, I have not taken care of my cars until some months ago when I began learning and tinkering some staff by myself (oil change, filters replacement, etc). So I was not surprised at all.
I used a fuel additive that (in theory) cleans accumulated carbon a bit and drove high on rpms for a week and I passed at the second try. However, I think th...

Hi
I have a PD.3 i30 N Line
The light circled (park light?) below does not come on. It never has.
Should this light come on??? I'm thinking 'yes' but would like to hear from someone here. Thanks.
The owners manual indicates that the DRLs and Parking lamp are the same thing. At the back of the manual they are both listed as LED. And there's this picture that doesn't even address the bulb in question:

I have a 2009 Hyundai i30 1.6 CRDi. On the auxilary belt drive system one of the pulleys is the spring loaded tensioner pulley. Does anyone know what tool I need to put in centre of the pulley so I can release the tension to change the belt please? Thank you.

Well, both front windows died (GD). One just inside the warranty period which was sorted without any sort of explanation as to what failed/was fixed. And then the other one about 12 months later after a weekend in the country with some driving on dirt roads and cattle grids.
I mention this since I wonder if something has come loose inside the door and its as simple as sorting out a loose connector. One window failing is bad luck. Both is a bit suspicious.
I'm yet to take it the dealer nearly 12 months later, since who uses the window anyway... and they wanted a couple of hundred bucks to look at it.
Anyone know what might be going on here and is it worth pulling apart myself to take a look?? I suck at rem...

Hey All,
Long time lurker, first time poster!
Like a lot of the other PD 1.6T owners out there, i also have been suffering from starting issues with my car. It has been back to the dealer twice for it, first time was "we could not identify the problem" second time "we applied a firmware update to resolve". Alas, the issue persists!
This morning was a different morning for me, car started well no issues. However halfway through the trip to work i notice it started to run a little rough. With the slightest mention of an incline, and it would really get rough. Eventually it gave up and coughed to a stop with the engine light on, and i cruised it into a side street.

Hi to everyone, i have only recently joined the forum and this is my first post, so i thought i'd start with a review of my 2 month old i30 n-line dct.
There are only a couple of negatives with this vehicle so i will start with the good stuff!.
performance & handling: both are excellent for a car at this price point, refined powerful turbocharged engine with more than enough shove for any situation with roadholding to match the performance.
The 7 speed dct is better than a lot of reviews would have you believe it changes smoothly and the shift programming seems spot on, especially in sport mode where the changes are lightning quick, yes you know you are not driving a conventional torque converter auto as it...

Hi All,
As per another post, I'm up to 20,000klms on my SR DCT. Really happy with it, fuel economy is excellent. It uses about 0.5-1.0L/100klm less than my 09 Lancer 2.0 CVT that I traded.
I commute around 110klms per day total, mostly flat highway driving. For the first 13-15,000klms I was consistently getting under 5.7l/100klms economy. A few days here and there it would get down to mid-low 5's. I don't think people would believe me if I didn't have the pictures to provide it This is mostly flat highway driving, 4 sets of traffic lights in the 50 minutes, a few roundabouts etc. For the past 5-7000klms I've noticed that fuel economy hasn't been as good. My driving style hasn't changed and I've always filled it wit...
