My Mrs has got a 2010 I30
Great little car, I flog it every time I drive it, which isnt very often, it goes round corners like its on rails.
This thread might help someone hence the reason for the post.
It has an intermittent starting problem.
I first read about the problem in this article
http://www.drive.com.au/editorial/articledetail.aspx?ArticleID=64181I always suspected fuel every time it occurred.
Still haven't had it fixed, will get it looked at one day.
You will know when the problem occurs, the car car cranks when the key is turned but no way in the world will it start.
The quick fix is to clench your fist and bang on the steering column right next to the key barrel and it will start.......every time.
That and if Hyundai ever puts a decent auto transmission in their vehicles they will be a brilliant car.
I bought her an Accent and the trannie was a POS, to Hyundai s credit they replaced it. The I30 with 70K K's on it is heading down the same path, seems to me that Hyundai had excellent customer service but from what I have seen it is nowhere near as good as it used to be.
Unless I see some evidence that Hyundai address the soft transmissions I doubt I will buy her another one. Shame really because they are almost bulletproff otherwise.
