Hyundai I30 2018 Problems

No, I don't think that is acceptable. The system is faulty and the update is said to fix those faults, so I believe Hyundai should be responsible and fix their faulty product. Keep a record of all correspondence on this matter, so you can prepare a case to present to Hyundai to have the update done free of charge.

There is no release button or lever to open the fuel filler flap on a Hyundai i30. With the car unlocked you simply press in the middle of the right hand side of the fuel filler door and it will open.

The short answer is no, small cars like the Hyundai i30 should not be used for towing a caravan, or any heavy trailer. They aren't designed to pull large, heavy loads. Even some dual-cab diesel utes shouldn't be used to tow caravans, as their oft-quoted "three-tonne" towing capacity doesn't actually mean they can tow a three-tonne trailer.

All production Hyundai i30s are front-wheel drive.The Korean manufacturer has other rear-wheel drive and 4x4 models in their range, although some enterprising teams custom-built 4x4 i30 rally cars for use in motorsport.

All current Hyundai i30 models are 4340mm long, tip to tip. This is correct for Go, Active, Elite, Premium, SR, and SR Premium Hyundai i30 models sold in Australia. Additionally, all i30 models share their other external dimensions, including width (1795mm), and height (1455mm).

Hyundai's i30 has won a stack of new car awards since its introduction in 2007. If properly maintained with regular servicing the small hatchback is perfectly reliable with few major faults found on record in routinely serviced vehicles. As always, if you are looking to buy a used car check its service history to ensure it has been looked after as this will give you a good indication it will be reliable into the future.

Hyundai's beaut little i30 line has been built in several factories around the world, including Ulsan, in South Korea, Beijing, China, Cairo in Egypt, and Nosovice in the Czech Repulic. For the current-generation GD and PD-series, Australian-spec cars will all be built in Korea.

Hyundai has spent 30 years building its brand from an entry-level player into the modern premium offering it currently is. What this means for buyers is an excellent range of well-made, well-engineered cars, and the i30 is a ripper. The previous-generation has taken home awards for being the Best Small Car for six years on the trot, and the Korean manufacturer has just launched a redesigned new-generation model to rave reviews. Hyundai consistently out-scores prestigious European brands in consumer satisfaction surveys around the world, and in reliability surveys. So, yes, I’d count the i30 as a good car.

Both are rated at 5 stars by ANCAP, and both would perform similarly in a crash situation.
