Are all terminals tight especially the battery?
Yeah it's the newest model, the pd. The dealer said they haven't had such issues with this model yet. It is very frustrating.

It is very frustrating.I have the non premium SR (same model) I have had a very minor problem compared to yours which isn't throwing error codes and won't re-occur for the dealer. My blind spot monitoring module gets disabled from time to time due to being blocked? Fortunately I get an alert so I know not to rely on it when this happens.The i30 has proven (via our forum and various reliability surveys) to be one of the most reliable vehicles on the market, so you have been pretty unlucky to say the least. Undiagnosed starting issues are always frustrating and inconvenient. I'll tag @cruiserfied (Tim) at Tamworth Hyundai to see if he can shed any light on a possible solution. He is a super Technician and his wife also drives one.
Well, it is extremely difficult for the dealer to find the error if the car work when in their workshop.I think the best you can do is next time is makes trouble, have the car towed directly to the dealer and hope the fault is still present when they have a look at it.As frustrating it is for you, just have a thought about the poor technician trying to make a costumer happy, but everything he test says ok..? If possible you could make a video next time, at least they can't deny it's happening to you then.
Hey @Liisa when the car does this next try this. - Open the car door- Close the car door- Lock the car- Unlock the car- try starting againIf it turns off successful, it's most like the transponder in the car that is faulty and isn't disabling the immobilizer. My Elantra did that back in the day and was the problem.Hope you find the issue soonSent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
Hi Liisa,I've been having the same issues as you. I remember there was a similar post back in April or May of last year in one of these forums about a guy having the same exact issue as you and I - he had a PD SR too. Since the car just came out then, it looked like it only got 1 or two replies and was quickly forgotten. Got the same response from the dealer... "Couldn't replicate the problem" "let us know is if it happens again".Apparently there was a ECU update that they hoped would fixed the problem. They flashed it into my SR and that was that. Everything was fine until a couple of days later and it went back to its old ways. I was told a other guy before me had the same issue. I got mine checked out at Castle Hill Hyundai.It's definitely frustrating because it is an otherwise perfect car with no issues. I also don't regret purchasing it. I'm glad I'm not the only one with the issue, but I'm also sorry your SR is acting the same way. One Tidbit I'd like to add is, if the lazy idle starts again, try pressing the gas pedal to rev the engine. This will make the car idle normally again and will make the check engine and immobiliser light disappear. Saves you from having to restart the car.
I just bought a new 2017 i30 SR and i have noticed the starting issue a couple of times and have recorded the last 2 start up fails both after a long drive for 2 and a bit hours. I stop for about 30min to 1 hour then when i come back to start the car it struggles then stops sometimes it just keeps trying to start for about 10-20seconds then stops. Has anyone else found this issue or found a fix??
'Tested no fault found' is easier.
