Just something I learned from online forums. You can disable the active exhaust valve by removing a fuse in the engine bay. But make sure the car is in N mode so that the flap stays open after you remove the fuse. Next is removing a fuse to disable the fake engine noise the car makes. It is located on driver side fuse box. If you dont have heated seats, which NZ spec i20n dont have, then it is safe to remove. So far, I’m enjoying my i20N 😃
It's always refreshing to see a new car getting a diy maintenance interval done. I trust a diy job more than it getting done on dealership. But that's just me.
@chasing cars as an independent mechanic down in Melbourne with 12 years under my belt as long as you get the viscosity correct such as 0W 20. Then the difference between GF5 & GF6 is not going to hurt anything in such a short period of time between changes. If you did this over many 10s of thousands of Kms then it might wear slightly faster than normal. Also I would appreciate it if you could advise in future videos you can go to an independent mechanic to get your vehicle serviced not just dealership.
@@user-vk4vd7vr5t yes you are correct however it would take a significant amount of driving to notice any extra wear & tear. Also if you follow the instruction manual you should be ok.
@@user-vk4vd7vr5t I understand what you are saying. However if it is only a short interval between changes then it will be ok. I’m not in any way suggesting that you should go ahead & do this. I’m simply pointing out that if you do get if wrong and swap it out quickly then it won’t cause to much damage.
Got my i20N serviced just yesterday at my local Hyundai dealership. When I asked what oil they put in they said 0w30. When I told them this is different than what is recommended in the owners manual, they said their computer systems says it's OK as long as it is API SN PLUS/SP or ILSAC GF-6. It seems they do not have 0W20 on hand at most Hyundai service centres. Next time I will bring in my own oil.
It's ok about the oil.. As quite a few Hyundai dealers have been putting in the incorrect oil in N cars. Most dealers just buy 1 spec of oil & put it in all cars that come in for service.
Well the top ex Toyota specialist on youtube [now that he does not work for Toyota] said that the dealerships buy the cheapest oil that they can get in bulk.
Part number for oil filter for 2023 i20n has changed style. Now 263502M100. App changed mid 2022. Completely different style of filter and 3x the price.
@@elmin2323 clean oil is better than dirty oil. Having driven various car brands with Aisian transmissions mostly, I have found 30,000km to 35,000km a good distance to change transmission oil and keep it from getting ‘dirty’. I think Hyundai make there own, but I’ve never had one fail since I’ve taken this action and changed engine oil every 5,000km
Hey Joe - we sure did. Here is the result: • Fuel percentage was a little high • Has dropped in cSt value from 20 to 2 points away from becoming 16 • Depending on driving style may recommend 5000km oil drain
Well done in owning up to your mistake!!👍 How are you finding the P-Zeros? I've got hardly any tread left after 13,000km and I haven't had the chance to do any track days yet!!!🤦
More interested in that sexy Cupra in the background! The number of innuendos in this video! What does the GF6A actually mean, in terms of the oil? I feel like the whole oil question could start a whole different debate - Also how does one know that they HAVE to use the GF6 standard, thats not listed on that page of the manual?
Hey mhan just want to know is it possible that I can use small parts of this video ( to create a short?) - not using your face and words - just few seconds of interior and exterior ? Will obvisouly do a mention in the description.
Hola desde España. Tengo un i20N, en el libro de instrucciones recomienda aceite 0w30, en el libro de mantenimiento recomienda 0w20. En el primer cambio de aceite me han puesto 0w30 en el concesionario y consume 0,5 litros más cada 100 kilómetros, por lo que imagino que de fabrica traia 0w20.

The average Joe is probably fine if you don't regularly come in contact with it and make sure to wash hands properly, but it's a different story for a mechanic who works around the stuff on the daily, definitely an occupational hazard for them
@@chasingcars OMG. I just got my car back from my 10k service today after asking for GF6A and on collection they confirmed they used GF5. What do you recommend I should do?
Yep, we got this wrong the first time. We own up to our mistakes and fix them.
Props to the producer for the current affair style B-roll during "what happened with oil-gate". Had a good giggle.
thank you

Why would you do that ? It is going to be open anyway in N mod no? I am not sure what is the outcome for this action 🤔
Do you know which is the fuse for the fake engine noise?
@Christian Breschi check the owner's manual. It's a 10A fuse.
@Kaan Ünal so it stays open even outside of N mode.
@@kreamypie is the same as the seat warmer right?

We have 5w30, 0w20 and 5w30 in all the dealerships. The older models was set out as 0w30 but they are working back to 0w20 nai

At 1:37, the Hyundai manual says API SN PLUS /SP OR Ilsac GF6. An SP Plus oil is an GF5 oil. Meaning it should be OK!
Shell helix so is the one I'll be using
Would it be possible to send the used oil to the lab for analysis?

Ok thanks for the info. I appreciate the good job your doing with the i20n review.
@@chasingcars I think you are saying, change oil more than for those who drive their i20N hard?
Looks like you are tightening that drain plug and not undoing it 😂😂
Doesn't this risk voiding your warranty doing it yourself?
Perhaps, but that would be a very tough finding by a court.
@@chasingcars not when they have this video...
Yeah, I recommend getting it right the first time.
Nah man you’re only changing oil just double check every thing, follow videos you’ll have no issue. Hyundai won’t know what’s been done when

I’m sure I’ve heard you should always wear gloves when working with used motor oil. You don’t want to get that shit on your skin. It’s no good.
And definitely don't drink it.
