The high-beam works, as do the LED driving lights.

GENERAL / Check headlight (Low) warning - no headlights
« Last post by inmn May 25, 2024, 03:20:14 »
I purchased a Hyundai i30 PD Elite diesel hatch (build date late 2017) a month ago with 198K km on it. It's a work car. I am a field technician. I have been very happy with it, already driven 5K km, no problem.
Yesterday on the way home in the dark the headlights stopped working. I got the error message on the dash Check headlight (low) (see image).
I can see a couple of posts about it:

There are loads of festoon LEDs of all sizes. I hit eBay and look for something that promises to give a cold white light. Wattage won't really be a concern once you move to LED.

Out with the old ,






In with the new , 2021 I30N DCT Hatch

What a beast of a car , I absolutely love everything about it.

Goes hard , handles awesome , sounds awesome , looks awesome and the DCT transmission is superb to use , one minute it can be an everyday car and with a push of the magic button it turns into a fire breathing beast , the most fun I have had with my pants still on  :wink:

Picked it up second hand with 87,000 country kms on it , full service history , still under warranty until January 2026 , the only issues I have found is a few stone chips which were to be expected.

The old 1.6 CRDI auto wagon which I upgraded the shocks to Bilstein B6 , added a racechip and had 270,000 kms at trade in was still going strong also I had the racechip on the car at its maximum setting for the last 7 years without any issues at all (I read on this forum people attributing the racechip to creating issues with their engines)

I hope it should do me for another 10 years , awesome car.

GENERAL / GD Map lights - bulb replacement
« Last post by BrendanP May 23, 2024, 13:24:12 »
Does anyone have experience of replacing these bulbs with LED bulbs? The bulb is 8W but these seem to be difficult to find and expensive, as it's a weird rating. Most festoon bulbs are 5W or 10W. I'm guessing 5W is too dim and 10W could overheat the fitting.

Attached is a photo of the lens cover which can be removed by opening the sunglasses holder and pulling down on the front edge of the lens. You can see the hooks at the back edge and the springy prongs at the front. DON'T try levering the cover off with a screwdriver along the sides or rear edge as you can snap off the hooks or the pegs they fit over.
