Hi folks

Just got my 2017 i103 petrol auto....only have one issue, dumb as it sounds i cant work out how to adjust the screen washer jets so they hit higher up the screen rather than at the bottom by the blades. Pressure seems fine.
In the past with cars ive  just inserted a pin and it was easy, this seems to have .75cm wide horizontal jets but i cant see how to adjust them, im scared to put a a screwdriver etc in there in case i break them.
Cant see anything in the user manual.
Anybody able to advise please ?
thanks in advance.

Hello Greyhound! Thank you for reaching out. The battery health status shows over 60%, suggesting it's in relatively good condition. However, despite this, the car is still experiencing starting issues. While it's possible it could be fuel pump-related, I'm exploring other troubleshooting methods before reaching that conclusion. Appreciate your assistance!

By "refuse to start" does it turn over, click or do anything?

Even though the battery is quite new, I would test that first using a multimeter.

Hello everyone, I need some assistance with an issue I'm having with my Hyundai i30. It's a 2010 model with a 1.4-liter petrol engine and has clocked 60,000 kilometers. Recently, it's been experiencing starting problems. I replaced the battery with a new one 2 years and 5 months ago, and everything seemed fine until today. Yesterday, the car started without any issues, but this morning, after moving it from the driveway to do some gardening, it refused to start. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Thank you so much for spending the time to check that out, I really appreciate you doing that. And it does strengthen my belief that my CV joint is worn and could well be causing my problem. I'll change it hopefully soon and report back.

I had a look under my car today. Turned the steering full lock with the car in gear so I could reach in and grab hold of the drive shaft. I tried turning it to and fro to see if there was any play. I made a video but there's no point posting it because there's nothing to see. No play or slop, no knocking or clicking. It was the same on both sides. My car is 2015 and done 110,000 miles. based on what your video shows, it sounds like the CV joint is worn.

DIESEL / 2011 crdi dpf pressure differential sensor?
« Last post by AaronR May 01, 2024, 14:30:34 »
Hi, attempting to clean my dpf with an aerosol cleaner with a straw, my temperature sensor is welded on and the pressure sensor looks like a much easier way to clean. Just de-attach pipe, stick straw up and clean. But I can’t for the life of me locate where the sensor is. Any hints or tips appreciated!

PETROL / Heat shield loose
« Last post by MarkAndyJ May 01, 2024, 10:52:04 »
Hi all,

Recently bought a second hand I30 FD. I've noticed there is a rasping noise from the front of the car when accelerating, which seems to be loudest in 2nd and 3rd gear around 20-30mph.

It stops immediately when I take my foot off the accelerator, so I'm certain it's not wheel bearings. It sounds more like an exhaust blowing but the car had an MOT a few weeks ago with no issues identified.

I have noticed the exhaust manifold heat shield has some play in it - all the fixing bolts are tight  however there is a metal netting around each fixing hole and the whole shield can easily be moved a few mm.

I wanted to ask if these were supposed to be fixed firm, as if so this may be the source of the noise.

GENERAL / Re: HELP: Check AEB System error light, multiple others also

@Bob.W My badge is exactly the same and I bought the car like that second hand. I've had the car for 3 years and the radar issue has only cropped up in the last couple of months, so I don't know for sure if that would be the issue.

I reset the computer after I removed my front bumper and I still got the AEB warning message, so that may be proof that it is not the badge. I'm no mechanic though, so I could be totally off track here.
