I have a clonking noise (when drive over Manhole cover/Well cover?) , small bumps, etc) in the front (have changed brake discs including pads, timing chain, spindle link left & right, anti-roll bars left & right, shock absorbers and bearings left & right, link arm left & right, inner steering link right) and cannot find from where (yet) anyone that have any good suggestion where to start looking after the clonking noise? Maybe somone has a good photo/film of where to look?

Sorry for the bad English

Hi

Just after any thoughts of worth this is worth fixing or some major issue would be the underlying cause.

All of a sudden lost over a litre of oil in a 2012 HYUNDAI i30 FD 2.0L G4GC Euro 4 DOHC 16v Petrol 4cyl 105kW Wagon FWD 120000 kms, was low speed short trip so wasn't running with extremely low oil.

Topped it up with 1 litre drove 2 km home and lost likely just over a litre. Ran well no noises and or issues heading home. Serviced since new and only owner.

Have had a clicking noise mainly when cold every ?10th start lasts about 30 seconds near timing belt local mechanic couldn't diagnose.

Here is video of leak when car turned on so only leaking when under pressure.

Hi guys,

Have a "weird one". So my i30 2008 1.6 petrol is acting up. The immobilizer light is always on. Even when the car is locked. It just happened over night (we did have a lot of rain that night).
So here it how it look when the car is locked. I have a car for over 4 years now and this immobilizer light was never on when car is locked.

So I checked if the antenna is the problem maybe. Maybe there was a corrosion on connector, which is located by the steering wheal. I disconnected it and there was no visible corrosion. So I tried to bridge the two pins to see if the immobilizer light will go off. No luck. So I thi...

Hey folks, I got myself a 2013 diesel i30 CW. It unfortunately had only the "standard" radio, without Bluetooth, just AUX and USB (with iPod). It looks like this: HOW TO: UPGRADE YOUR GD-01/GD-02 TO A GD-03 HEAD UNIT STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE but w/o the Bluetooth.

I'd like to modify and upgrade to GD-03, but I do worry about some things. Notably: will it connect to continental europe cars? Is there any difference in electrical wiring (as far as I know, GD-03 is Aussie exclusive  ). Another worry is about antennas. Does GD-03 require GPS antenna? Do I need to somehow jerry-rig it?

I'd like to also push my luck and somehow add ...

My recently purchased (6 months ago) 2014 i30 Elite diesel (6 speed manual) seems to have developed what I hope is a minor issue, but will probably end up costing me a fortune. About 2 days ago I was driving it and it suddenly seemed to me to be a bit sluggish (It's no performance car, but I haven't had cause complain) and it was like that until this morning. I'd just convinced myself that I was imagining it climbing a particular hill on the highway in 6th gear with no problems  and I must have been changing down to 5th gear without noticing, when bugger me, it climbed the hill in 6th with no problem at all. A bit of investigation and it now seems to perform perfectly fine and the sluggishness of the last 2 days seems to be a thing of the p...

Hi, stupid question but please try to answer... I bought a new pair of jets to replace the existing ones because they spray all around... I need to know if you place it from outside in to the water hose or from inside out... I don't remember how I did it a few years ago...

Hi folks,
First time poster here and struggling to connect my Samsung S20 to my 'new to me' OEM 2018 PD2 i30 Premium Head unit.  (BTW, I'm totally new to this phone to car malarkey so pls be gentle with me. )

Here's the story (and my questions) so far:

1.  The phone connects via Bluetooth for calls, contact list and audio (what audio does that refer to?) .  I have that working OK but still setting it up to work seamlessly.

2.  The 'phone projection thing' requires Android Auto.  Using Android Auto requires a 'quality' USB cable to work...(yes/no).  TBH I'm a bit disappointed that it can't be done via Bluetooth too, but perhaps that feature came out on later model head units or cars?

2014 Hyundai i30

Audio steering wheel controls come to a slow intermittent death.

Now on the right side, the Cruise Control buttons and coming to a slow death with intermittent problems consisting of buttons not working/ buttons performing a different function that it is meant to do.

Have replaced the steering wheel button assembly ( buttons and pcb board) and still no fix.

Help.

I have searched around but not found any specific fix. Our FD has the flashing LCD display, it has been doing it for about a year but recently it started just not lighting up at all so i am wondering is anyone able to help point to what needs replacing in the circuitry?

Im not an electrical engineer but i dont mind a bit of tinkering to solder/desolder if i am pointed in the right direction. I have done a little bit of external troubleshooting but happy to do more, I have a dash and fader from a wrecked diesel that seems to work fine which i can swap parts across if needed. I have checked and its just the LCD display not the whole cluster and ive double checked its not the fader and also the diesel dash. Its all of the backlighti...

Hey there, new to this forum

I actually knew very little about my i30 CW 2009 until a couple of weeks ago, when I took it to a garage for repair for the first time in 15 years (excluding normal servicing and replacing usual things after certain mileage)
So, couple of weeks ai ago went to a garage to get a knock on the steering wheel while turning. Now I know everything about the infamous bush, but back then it was just a silly pieace of rubber that needed replacement. So I had it replaced. Upon collecton the car, the mechanic told me that now I had a warning light on...the ESP OFF. He said he had no idea how it happened and it was coincidental...ok .
Said that the diagnostic indicated steering a...
