Hi Guys, from Brisbane Australia with a new 2013 I30.

[~ Angel ~]

Hey kevxtx

to the forum.

[kevxtx]

That was a fast reply, sort of happy so far, 1300kms on the clock with a terrible whine from cold start up besides that the car is not bad at all.

Welcome Kevxtx, to the very best of Forums & the best of cars!

Sounds like you got the petrol version.. Mixed feedback on here about that whine. Quite a few are mentioning it but some feedback is that it is normal. Others have had it "fixed" with mixed results.

Whatever happens they are still a great car (and generally reliable) and you have the 5 year warranty for peace of mind

The i30 is great value for money, I will look into the whine on start up I would not have thought it was normal, may be they are still working on a solution.

Like that avatar kevxtx.

AFAIK, it's the ABS repressurising, which is why it's considered normal.

Great to have you onboard.

Welcome, mate, from another Brisbane member.

I also get that whining noise on start up, but only when Mrs.UM is in  the passenger's seat.
