I've been having problems with my i30 (2009) for the past 6 weeks.

It started with the car not taking longer to start and when it did start the ESP OFF light was on and the rev counter did not work. If i turned the engine off then on again the car worked fine. This would happen maybe once a week.

This week the car has cut out completely in slow moving traffic (in first gear and lots of stopping and starting) when i go to restart the engine I encounter the first problem. The car will take a min to turn on then the ESP light is on and no rev counter.



I have taken the car to three different mechanics but none can identify the issue. As it's an intermittent problem they will need to see the issue. I have read many forums online that point the finger at differen issues.



Has anyone encountered this issue with Hyundai i30, if so how did you solve this issue? I am worried the car may cut out when travelling at faster speeds.

Hi GG 

Did you try a quick search of our/your forum? Quite a few hits for your issue...

Here's the first I found:

ESP Off light and rev counter disabled

First reading says crank sensor. Thanks Shambles 
As the thread says, its a DIY job.

Yeh, I got the crankshaft sensor replaced yesterday. Fingers crossed this will solve the issue but I will only know for sure after driving it for a week or two.

Will update

Fingers crossed

Any update on this?  My 2009 does exactly the same - replaced the crankshaft sensor yesterday and now the check engine light is on and the car is very juddery when i'm driving.

Check light = code. What is it? My crystal ball cant read it!

No need for Sarcasm, I intend to get a diagnostic done on it this weekend,  I was merely wondering whether the original poster had resolved the problem or whether they also were still having issues!

Sarcasm?    Madam you advised us in two separate threads that your MIL was on.    I was already involved in this thread. Both tw and I replied with the obvious;  YOU need to read the codes.

Welcome Kristina. That was how I ready your post. Quite frustrating having one problem fixed and another show. Up hope you can get to the bottom of it without too much grief or expense.
