![]() I’ve used the search function and can’t find anything similar. First time i30 owner here. Apologies if this is in the wrong forum section. The ISG system should, according to everything I’ve read, not shake the engine on shut down or result in audible knocking as the engine comes to a stop. It’s not every time, say 50% What could be the cause of this ? I’ve taken the precaution of turning it off each time as I don’t like the sound, it’s not healthy and the shaking won’t be doing the mounts any good. 63k on the clock, well serviced and no other issues seemingly. I’ve run torque pro using a cheapo ELM327 and there’s no fault codes but am prepared to believe I ne... May 03, 2025, 12:02:57 by extinguisher | Views: 12060 | Comments: 2
![]() So, yesterday I bought i30, 2018, 1.4 mpi, 73 kw with 145000 km. Seller recently changed the clutch (much of city driving), spark plugs and car battery, nothing else was changed except regular changes of motor oil, filters and disk plates. MY question is, when to change serpentine belt and accompanying parts (by the visual inspection belt looks good to me), water pump, gearbox oil, fuel filter (is it liftime?)? Regarding the timing chain i saw that is "liftime" but other informations say that after 200000 km it colud be for replacment, so what experiences you have? Fell free to add sometnig if I for...

![]() When out of gear and rev, no issue, no lag, when pulling off in 1st gear no issue, when changing into second, if the revs are low in the range 1.5/2k it sort of stutters, drop of power probably from ecu control. The fuel filter was changed as part of the service 5 months ago, I changed the maf a few days ago, suspecting it could be that. The injectors were tested and are all fine. There are no errors in the diag. I had a carbon clean where the egr was being ... April 22, 2025, 01:23:23 by chris91 | Views: 23781 | Comments: 1
![]() I am experiencing an issue with my i30, when slowing down for a corner/roundabout/speed bump, really anything that gets me below 3rd gear, the cars engine just turns off, power stays on because the radio is still going, some of the dash lights come on as well. If I just stop and turn the car back on it's fine until it does it again. It doesn't happen all the time, maybe once or twice when driving, the car has just been for a service where a number of issues were picked up and fixed and this issue supposedly was fixed (due to a clogged air filter) but a few days later it still had the same issue, a check engine light came on and we took it back to the mechanic, he said there was no actual error code and tha...

![]() Bought this car for my partner a few weeks ago. Never had a stop start car so didn't realize it had it Reading the manual and read it as it It's never worked since we had it. It just says stop start stopped and the light comes on the driver's side.. Been told this could possibly be the dpf None of us have seen it regen. But maybe possible missed it. We done today 130 motorway journey and didn't witness anything. But maybe we missed it My partner drives alot in the week too. She's not sure what she's looking for. The car goes well and as zero other problems. Could it be someone as deactivated the stop start system? J... April 07, 2025, 08:42:48 by Diviner | Views: 7401 | Comments: 7
![]() I have noticed this year (for about a month) that the steering wheel initially makes a single distinct "click" when turned. [Maybe some people would describe it as a soft "clunk". Or possibly "knocking"?] So, regardless of the direction the front tyres happen to be pointing, if I hold the steering wheel stationary there is no click. If I decide to turn the steering wheel, then I can turn it through perhaps 1 cm (roughly 3°) with no noise, then there is the single click, and then it is silent again as I continue to turn the steering wheel. Diagnosis The sound suggests to me that there could be 'play' in the syst... March 29, 2025, 00:48:18 by Wacky17 | Views: 22079 | Comments: 4
