Hey the user manual strangely does not contain specs like oil viscosity, headlight bulb types etc, presumably because it is universal, but it's a pain in the bum

The hyundai dipped/main beams are H7s correct?

and the parkers are just wedge type t10s?

Thanks guys


Pip
Can't help with the lights but someone else will. The oil specs are certainly in my user manual.

That's definitely in the manual.
Section 9 pages 4-5
Bulbs are in Section 9 page 2.

Thanks guys.

I am used to manuals that clearly outline a specified oil rating, I missed the chart with viscosities and temperatures.  I like that hyundai lets you make the choice.  Although to be sure I believe dealers use 10w30 here? It's a bit of a one size fits all rating I guess.

And perhaps I'm missing a page but I cannot for the life of me find anything in the manual that states what types of bulb to use.  The only thing it has is a vague guide on how to change them, and it tells you to use the correct ones, but doesn't say what they are

Cheers


Pip
WRT oil, dealers seem to use a variety of oils as I don't believe they are under any more pressure to standardise the oil than you are. It must conform to the specification that's all.

There has been quite a lot of discussion in the fluids section.  The requirements differ of course for the engine used. Which do you have?

The 2010 i30 manual has this page. It details the wattage but not the type

Headlamp bulbs;
H7
H7S
H7L
H7R


A search reveals (?) that H7R are for reflector lamps and H7S are for elllipsoid projector lamps.
But what is H7L and what is the difference between them all ??
