Hi everyone. First post here.
I just bought my wife a2013 i30 Elite (73,000km), and have a basic question.
I'm used to vehicles where the radiator cap sits directly on top of the radiator and obviously you can see the coolant level as soon as you remove the cap. Am I correctt in assuming that, even though the cap in this car is above the radiator level and offset from the radiator itself, you should still be able to see the coolant level when you take the cap off? If so, it appears that the vehicle is using a decent amount of coolant for only 73k on the clock (with FSH), and may be going back to the dealer while under warranty.
I discovered it also has an issue with cold starts (rough idle, very rich mix) after getting it home - gotta love dealers warming up cars before you arrive for a test drive - so that is being checked locally next week.
Otherwise, the car is great and my wife loves it!
