Oh my my. Review on Hyundai i20

Hyundai i20 riding waves with a smaller price tag(Ranging INR 45, 0 000 to 85, 00000) and people search lot's of forums and take opinion whether to buy or not. I hope this review will help people while deciding whether to go for it or not.I will try to cover up as much as possible.

Performance: Certainly this car has won "CAR OF THE YEAR" consecutively Hyundai i20 offers good performance overall, butter smooth gear shift, flaw less ride and noiseless engine, good pick up at slow speed and rock stable even @ 140 KMPH, thanks to the old ferrari engine and heavily built body, Thanks to 1200 CC engine

Suspension: Hyundai i20 has a rock solid suspension, if properly greased( evey 40k KMS) and maintainted Hyundai i20 can easily run noiselessly for at least 1 lakh KM without disturbing your pockets.

Economy: Hyundai i20 is a major concern raised by many people against this car, the car upon proper maintenance and effective driving can deliver 12 KMPL in city and 16 KMPL on highways with A/C on, the major factors affect mileage are, dusty air filter, blocked fuel injector, ECM fault and depressed engine.

Body: Heavily built and can save the passengers on any major crash, the heavy body helps the car to maintain stability on high speeds and culprit for bringing down the economy.Exceptionally excellent paint quality.

Electricals: Since the ECM(brain of the car) is placed flat exposing too much results in too much wear and tear, leading to occasional replacements.The headlights are powerful enough without Cut-out

Spare: Almost all parts are available in metros and major city

Common problems and fixes:

Low economy: replace or clean air filter, clean fuel injectors, check for fuel lines, do a engine flush, always have tank full of petrol while calculating economy as reserve indicator glows when fuel level reaches 10L or less though company claims it to be 7L, use right tires 165/65 R13 or 180/70 R13.NEVER use R14, use SYSTEM G additive and fill

up petrol in early morning.Last mAnasultange proper gear shift at right speeds don't overuse clutch/accele_45rator

Sounds in door: Hyundai i20 is a safety mechanism in palio, three stages of opening, 45, 60 and 90 degrees, a lock sound will be heard.

Cost: 50 rupees to re-greese the door

Engine: if it fails to start check ecm and if there is missing check the ECM.EC

Suspension noise: lower arm replacement or reassemble suspension with new bearing and bushes

Gear Slip /struck: Replace pedal Master and slave cylinder
