I spotted this in the specifications (https://www.hyundai.com.au/ArticleDocuments/10703/20170424%20-%20Reinvented_i30_Spec_Sheet.pdf.aspx):
"Convenience opening/closing function with remote - all windows".
Has anyone been able to get the remote window OPENING function to work?
-
Welcome Mark,
I only have the non-premium SR which I don't think has that feature, but I'm guessing it works the same as in this video below for the Golf.
It's a bit of a cryptic video (what language is that - Irish I think) but it appears you unlock the car then hold down the unlock button for a second or two until the windows come down. To remote put them up, do the same with the lock button.
I checked my PDF copy of the PD model manual but I think it pertains to the European models and couldn't find reference to that feature. So nothing in your manual? Anyway, try this..

Thanks for your reply Dazzler. Thanks for that video, I believe the language is English.
Looks like you need a PDF copy of the Australian manual for the i30 PD, so here it is:
http://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-1HMK8bqKO8ck80QklJS0RVbE0 (http://drive.google.com/open?id=0B-1HMK8bqKO8ck80QklJS0RVbE0)
on page 3-29 it mentions the remote CLOSING feature, which works as described.
The "opening/closing function with remote - all windows" feature is present in Elite, Premium and SR Premium VARIANTS of the i30 PD, according to the specifications I linked in my opening post.
You're correct that your SR doesn't have this feature.
My question remains: is anybody with an i30 PD able to OPEN their windows using the remote?
-
Hi again Mark,
Sorry I didn't spot your link in the first post. If you look closely at the specs the Active and base SR don't get that remote feature. I did go down and test it before I looked at your link though! :crazy1: (obviously it didn't work...)
Thanks for the link to the Aussie Manual. Good to have a copy of both now. I'm starting to think the Specs are a misprint(error) and it's only the up feature on Aussie PD's. The Euro has the window info in a similar part of the Manual, but makes no mention of the remote function.
I'm surprised even the remote up works as it says the ignition must be on for the electric windows to operate. Which is what I have found when in the car.
Our video man does indeed speak English, but not very well in my opinion! :undecided:
Hopefully someone with a PD Elite or Premium can try it for us..
Maybe @NayuluTjuta
-
You're definitely correct. I've corrected my post above.
-
PD SR Premium certainly has this feature. Hold the unlock button for a long press and the vehicle unlocks followed by windows all opening. Reverse is also true. A long press of the lock button on the remote closes all windows and locks the vehicle.
This function is identical to that on our VW Amarok Highline.

Thanks Bob. Just like in the video I posted! :goodjob:

I can only close my windows using the car key. Not open them.
It's a bit weird, since I had this function on most of my previous cars and I could also roll them down using the key....

I agree that it "has the feature" (since it's in the specifications), but the question is, "Can YOU actually get it to work?"
Bob, have you ever actually OPENED the windows using the remote?
I tried it just now on my i30 PD Premium. Firmly holding the unlock button for 10 or more seconds on the remote makes the car unlock, but the windows don't open.
In this other thread (https://www.i30ownersclub.com/forum/index.php?topic=22788.0) someone mentions there's a combination of:
unlock-lock-unlock&hold which is required to open the windows. (tried that too, still doesn't work)
Bob, does it mention window opening using the remote, in your manual?
If you really can do it, would you care to post a video?

Been off the site for a while with a few things happening. All is well. Did have an eye operation which has been a success, which is great. The real distraction from the car interest has been my major home renovation which includes an off grid installation incorporated into a laundry Upgrade. Will post details elsewhere some day.
Re using the remote for window up/down, it definitely does work. Hold down the unlock button to unlock the vehicle and lower the windows. The windows will go down with the unlock button and up with the lock button. Take your finger off the button and the windows will stop. Hold it down, and they start moving, depending on the button pressed. The completely lock the windows with the remote, hold down the lock button until windows are at the top and the indicators flash.

Thanks for that Bob. You have been busy! Glad you are ok and the eye op went well. Be very interested in the off grid installation when you get time to share.
Sounds like Mark70 has a problem with his?
-
Wow! That video is exactly the kind of proof I need for when I take my i30 PD to the dealer to get this fixed. I can show him that an i30, in Australia actually has the feature as specified.
Thank you very muchly, Bob! :D
-
I think that is a useful function if you have a pet in the car. or it's extremely hot .
I remember a few years back my m8 showing me his focus titanium could do that via remote. that same m8 has always loved thing's like that. I remember him driving a caddy convertible was the huge model think seventy's & had an electric soft top he liked putting the top up and down while cruising. back in 70's that was novel.

My eldest Daughter, who still has her Hyundai, will be really suprised when I do this with her car. Thanks for that :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob: :goodjob:

Think it's only premium PD models that do that ASA. Has she recently updated? :undecided:

Oh bugger, I think it's a base model, however I shall give it a go all the same Dazz and if it works she'll be even more impressed with daddy :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Even more so if it only had manual windows! :rofl:

Hi All, new i30 SR Premium MY18 owner here.
I had this issue with the "Convenience opening/closing function with remote - all windows" - only working with closing the windows.
Visited local Hyundai service centre and they've now fixed this issue so windows can be opened & closed via the smart key.
It appears there's an ECU configuration required to be set at Pre-Delivery to allow this function. Seems some dealers are missing this step.
Hope this helps other SR Premium owners that may be experiencing this issue.
Cheers,
Pappy
-
Welcome Pappy, Cheers for that and congrats on the new car. :goodjob2:
-
Maybe the Ecu mod for Windows opening closing can be added to standard SR models by the dealer ? :whistler:
-
I think it's more likely a BCM mod rather than an ECU one.

I thought the same thing and just assumed that BCM was meant. :goodjob:

Thanks for letting us know!
I’ll check that with my dealer.

hmmm i have an SR premium but don't have this feature working. Should i ring the service centre tomorrow to get that rectified? Is it something they program into the remote or something?

Thanks to this thread, I was informed and raised it when we picked up Mrs G's. The dealer promised to do this at the free service. :victory:
-
Hi there.. I've contacted Hyundai for thewindows auto down feature while holding unlock button on remote. This has to be enabled by service team which takes a few minutes ands is free. I'm having mine done tomorrow😊😊
-
Must have been a different thread but I reported that after the dealer said it couldn't be programmed, I experimented when parking later in the day and it worked out of the box.
-
darn I didnt know it open windows :) .. I knew about closing but this is new. Will definitely give it a shot when I have my car back from the panel beater

You guys with Premiums are annoying with all your fancy features.. :kissmyass: :snigger:

I'm getting mine done on Friday. Took a whole heap of arguing with the chick who books the service jobs, but eventually she folded and went to talk to a tech to see if it indeed can be done in five minutes. Tech said he's happy to do it just before his lunch break. Fancy remote window operation to rival my son's Audi A3 here we come

Quick update: no joy. The closing function works and I suspect it did work before this visit too, but not the opening. The service department said they can't find it and there is no updates for it. They will ring headquarters Monday to try to find out what they have to do. if they remember to ring...
Anyone who had it done able to give me a dealer name or perhaps a phone number I can ring and ask them so I can tell these dills here what they need to do please?
-
My 2017 German spec i30 if you hold the lock button after locking the windows will raise however there is no feature that will lower the windows that I know of as of yet.

Hi - I had this feature activated at Suttons Rosebery ( :link: Suttons City Hyundai | Welcome (https://www.suttonscityhyundai.com.au/)) - they emailed Hyundai who replied with the settings that needed to be updated. It seems most dealers are missing this setting which should be done at pre-delivery. Only valid on Elite & Premium models.

Thank you very much. I have the spec sheet to wave for the models that have the feature. Now I can go and tell them who to talk to as well. Much appreciated Pappy :goodjob:

Got my car back and did a test yesterday - Close worked, Open does not - Time for me to ring the service center. :)

Well bugger me, it works on mine as well. :snigger:
Works in both the up and down direction and can adjust the opening depth to where I want it as well.
Not sure if I will use it as the dog don't travel in this car, but handy to know it's there anyway.
-
I think I will have the need to use the down window more than up. Nice to let all the hot air out of the car before you get there.

Totally agree - exactly how I use this feature.

Windows down feature while holdng unlock button on remote works great. Dealership service team enabled feature and works perfect. 😊😊 happy days

Took the car into dealership service today, excited to get the feature enable. Got told that there is a Hyundai recall to replace boot opening button as well so they replaced that on the spot - Happy days.
I30 SR Owners - If you have not had this rear boot button replace yet, then you should ring up and book that in since there is an active Hyundai recall to have that done - No idea why it need since it still working well on mine and I have no issue opening the boot.
Anyway, 2 hrs later I was told that window down feature via remote is NOT available on Hyundai SR Premium. I then show them the PDF link on this forum and techie still said, they verified with sales and they said not available and they want to send me home. I went and show the sale guys the PDF and they rang Hyundai - got told what to do and 15 mins later, all are well.
Now I can up and down via remote.
Thanks guys.

well done buddy, be persistent. I wish they could add it to the SR non premium.

Booked my SR premium for it to be done in a couple of weeks. The guy at the Service centre at Phil Gilbert said they've heard about it so hopefully it goes without a hitch.

Take the attached with you - if they refuse to assist get them to call Hyundai AU or Suttons Rosebery.

Which dealer in Sydney did you go to, so I can mention them to my dealer? I don't seem to have the function set up so will be contacting my dealer in Arncliffe. Have printed off the pdf.
The boot recall is not listed anywhere on Hyundai's recall list online when I checked, but will mention it to them.
-
Which dealer in Sydney did you go to
Right above your post:
Suttons Rosebery
-
I wondered which dealer @Blazorax went to that also mentioned the recall for the boot release - dealer name was not mentioned there.

@Sydney Lady
Hi Sis

I'm sure in Theory that it is available to be done.. But Hyundai will not activate it.
Most "Features" are built into cars & only get activated depending on the model's spec's.
My 2001 Astra is a good example.. Cruise control function is turned off in the BCM. With a program called OPCOM & an OBD2 reader
You can do it yourself quite easy with the software & buy the left hand stalk for about $15. Bingo, Cruise control works :)
Even programming new keys can be done with the OPCOM
So I would think everything would be there for it to work..

Thanks for the info. I'll check with my dealer and see how I go. My boot latch works fine, it's funny the invoice says 'outside handle' as it's an internal push up latch ! Will see what happens and let you all know.

Spoke to my dealer and he checked for recalls for my 2013 i30 and there were none.
re the window remote function. He will ring me friday after speaking with the area manager as they did not think it was available for my car, It may be that this is only available with the newer models. Mine is 2013 and I noticed the posts where it worked all were 2017 and 2018 models. So I may be unlucky.
The specs title says 'reinvented i30' which I think refers to late models, and not mine.

So far I believe every model enabled by the dealers was a PD.

Yes. @Sydney Lady unfortunately not applicable to your GD version.

Hi Dazzler, What's a PD version as different to mine?
just looked it up online, mine is the 2nd generation i 30 and PD is 3rd generation
drat, was looking forward to the remote fix.
Be interesting to see what the area manager says on friday. Probably as you have just said.
I did learn one thing from the spec which was that I had a power outlet in the boot that I was not aware of. Though can't see me plugging my mobile in the boot to recharge. :)
Just saw this online - :link: Power window closer module for Hyundai I30(2012-2013) automatic car window door closer free shipping support (https://www.dhgate.com/product/power-window-closer-module-for-hyundai-i30/392007413.html)
-
Though can't see me plugging my mobile in the boot to recharge.
That can be quite handy when you go for a walk for example. The one in my FD (1st gen i30) was powered even when the engine was off and the car locked, so could easily charge a phone or a tablet while taking a walk in the park, out of sight too. I made sure though to turn the sound off so it wouldn't give itself away should a potential thief be near by.

Also handy if you've got one of those mini 12 volt cooler/warmer things for a picnic or camping.
This sort of thing..

Went into Phil Gilbert Service centre in Croydon today, Had my pdf and video and this thread ready to show, talked to the service agent guy that met me there and Told about what needed to be done, didn't dispute it. Took about 2 hours (i think it was due to how busy it was) but got the car back and now i have that feature on my SR premium! Good to have this now even if Summer is coming to an end. All in all a very stress free experience.

How do you find that dealer? I nearly pull the trigger on the new car there yet at the end went with Peninsula Bankstown. I found one of the sale staff there at Phil Gilbert just really good. Next car I will definitely go to him.
