I asked my dealer and they said the wiring harness ect ect is different and no way it can be retrofitted. I suppose im just still annoyed at the oversight on such a great car otherwise.
Has anyone heard or seen an aftermarket install use the factory cruise buttons? It doesnt sound like a huge deal to just change which key pad is used other than if they can still send a signal through the steering column, the aftermarket ones always look cheap and seem to be in the way.
Also my dealer said they can organise an aftermarket system to be added however if any problems arise my factory warranty is null and void.
Finally is there any use (in your opinions) if we are to contact hyundai and put pressure on for a cruise to be made available.

I have seen the aftermarket cruise fitted and it looked ok. I think there is a picture of one posted on this site somewhere. I have had aftermarket cruise fitted on cars in the past and never had a problem with them. I have'nt fitted on my i30 yet. I intend to at some point, maybe when the tax return arrives, if my wife has'nt already spent it.

Suggest you search "cruise control" or just "Cruise" on the site, there is heaps about it on here somewhere...

At the end of the ad it says "now with cruise control".

Did it state now standard with cruise, or now with cruise?
Cruise has'nt been available for the deisel till now, so to say now with cruise could mean to say that it is available with the deisel option.
It just seems that as the sx model in the petrol didnt have cruise, why would they make it available on the deisel equivalent? Does that mean that cruise is now standard on the sx petrol as well?
Maybe its like they say on their adds.....Now thats generous!

Lakes, agree fully with you about the 6 speed gear box, I find myself looking for another gear once I hit 95klm/h.
The cruise you speak of is aftermarket right?

Eyma, yes the Cruise i have is aftermarket it is the only extra i ordered, the dealer just said he could have it fitted as he knew i wanted that.
but i drove down past Narooma and back without useing it this weekend, i love the princess Hwy if i have a car that can pull hills strong and handle ok. was a fun drive down too. enjoyed my trip. my friends live on a beach so it's nice visiting them.

There are some rally nice spots there on the south coast, Narooma is great, got to watch that notorious sand bar if your putting out a boat though. It has claimed many a vessel, and human life for that matter
I think the south coast is very under-rated. There are some of the prettiest beaches in OZ on the south coast, and as you say, half the fun is the drive there on those hilly windy roads.

Eyma, I agree 100% m8.
hey i was thinking to myself and wondering why the i30 CRDi felt so good on the princess Hwy and i'm thinking it's all to do with air quality as on that road you are about at sea level , were as when i drive out west i cross the great devide and some parts i'm @ 3,500 above sea level probably get a TQ & power loss
