Re: My Hyundai Grand i10 Asta (O) Petrol Ownership Review

Guys got the DRLs fitted to the car

DRLs bought from Ebay for Rs 4500

DRLs connected to ignition. I didnt connect the third wire which will Dim the DRLs when HL are switched on

Also fitted ring shaped LEDs, connected with parking, pretty bright

I have ran into one issue though, the mechanic connected the DRL wire to Fusebox as given in the pic, In our car even after the ignition is off, current flow through that fuse and after 90 secs DRLs switch off (Mistakenly they are like a come home light now). Friends please suggest some other wiring mechanism to correct this.

Hi,
I bought the Drls from Ebay and saw the black fog lamp cover opp. to drls(curve edges nearing radiator) not getting inserted properly. I can see come minute gaps. But looks ok.

Found this information on internet on some website that the elite i20s BCM (Body control module) does have an option to enable auto door lock as a user configurable option and same is the case with Grand i10 and Xcent .This can be very well enabled at the service station using the device " G-Scan" .

Hi saurabh64,
Did you get any update on Auto door locks?

Carwale mentions gi10 sports has avg fuel consumption meter. Is this true? I have not seen it in my car.

I also saw a review video of UK Gi10 where it had avg fuel meter saying 6L petrol consumed / 100 km & then we had to calculate avg per liter.

Fuel Avg is not of much importance to me, as i drive during weekends only. However its much helpful then tank full method when on trips with friends.

Hi everyone,
Earlier i have posted this thread in DIesel Grand i10 Forum(As i own Diesel version), I did not get any reply since 5 days so i am posting it here.

I need some clarification from you all, My cars temperature gauge never goes above the midpoint, no matter how stressful i drive the car through Ghat section or bumper to bumper traffic in 2nd & 3rd gear.
The point is that i haven't seen my radiator fan running or heard any radiator fan sound running since 1.5 years. Is it so in Diesel cars? This is my first diesel car earlier i have driven petrol cars only.
Is there anything serious? Should i tell HASS about this matter.

Re: My Hyundai Grand i10 Petrol Ownership Review

Hi guys,
Time to cheer up, [:)]I returned back after 5 days and yes my new grand i10 did not betray me. It started with a touch as it supposed to be [clap] SO no battery issue for me.
I would like to remind you though that I had put Master SWITCH to OFF position before going. Today when I came back and opened the car with manual key, as soon as I switched ON the Master Switch Car started honking as intruder alarm was activated. For a moment I was puzzled but then realized it and put it off by pressing lock button on the key. So guys there isnt any issue with car I feel its just you have to follow the instructions.
Hi hallovipin

Really glad and relieved to read that you didn't face any challenge with the battery. Just one clarification, shutting the master switch deactivates theft alarm also? If that's the case, it then defeats the purpose of having one [frustration]! Any solution? Thanks.

Hi,
I have checked auto door locks option in Grand i10/xcent/Elite i20 using G scan. No option to enable in these 3 cars. It is not listed in BCM.100% confirmed i checked in Hyundai service station.

My car was parked near a building where its 5th floor was being painted white due to which Very minute sized white paint drops are now stuck on left side doors and the hatch. How do i remove the white paint myself? Or should i visit 3M outlets?

I read reviews where people mentioned to used clay bar to remove the paint. I have a wine red car and the white paint is visible while you are opening the doors.


The clay bars cost ~1400 on amazon india. Should i buy it or try some other method
