I thought some might be interested to know my experiences with our I30 SR DCT ( non premium) on a just completed drive from Port Melbourne to Toowoomba and return over 23 days with two adults and a full complement of luggage including 3 boxes of stuff for my daughter.
So we ended up doing 4854 kilometres at a trip PC fuel average of 6.7 L/100 kms. Used 341 litres of fuel at a cost of $447.83 which by my calculations works out at 7.04 L/100 kms. Still pretty good for a well loaded sporty little car. I sat on the speed limit as much as I could working on an under read of 5kph which still gave me a roughly 2kph buffer at highway speeds... I think all bar one fill was E10 the other was 91 unleaded.
Prebooked a service at Tweed Hyundai before setting out as expected to get close to the 20K service interval by the time we got to Kingscliff where my brother lives. Mileage was 19,909 when we arrived at the dealer. Service was pretty good (thanks to service advisor Carla) I think I paid $303 including $33 to rotate and balance the tyres.
They put my tyre pressures up from 34 psi cold to 38 psi cold which was a bit of a pain. I finally got around to reducing them back several days later as ride and tyre noise is better at 34psi.
The SR was a delight to drive soaking up the kilometres without a hitch. Well only one small hitch. Still getting the random Blind spot monitoring disabled , Radar blocked message occasionally. Happened about 4 times but didn't need that function at the time and it reset itself next time I resumed driving. Didn't have time for Tweed hyundai to look at it this service. Things to do, places to go.
