Re: Hyundai Xcent S 1.2 - My Daily Commute - Owner's View

I have a query regarding xcent, I have Xcent petrol base version, clutch pedal for past few weeks is making pop noise while pressing, I reported this issue to hyundai few time, every time the guy from hyundai put some lubricant in clutch pedal inside cabin and adjust some clutch setting from bonnet.
But now I hear some whining sound whenever I press accelerator little hard from engine. Even during my trip to greater noida on expressway when I am riding in 5 th gear at around 80-90 kmph speed, I can clearly hear whinning kind of sound from engine, this sound is something like which used to comes from maruti 800 when we used to press accelerator realy hard and car struggles to pick up fast.
Can anybody helps?

either the clutch wire is bad or the clutch pedal has developed a crack.

both these reasons will hinder clutch's performance and will make a noise everytime when pressed.

It is a Hyundai, made in 2015 but the month is indeed not clear as the 19th digit of VIN is not there. As 2015 is ending so it very important to know whether the car you're purchasing is 2015 end manufactured or it had been manufactured earlier in 2015. Ask your SA to provide you the proper VIN or else you may do a PDI yourself and note the VIN properly. Also if the car is 4-5 month old then you are liable for a good discount too.

Regards

I think it will likely be Oct or Nov 2015. My Xcent has a sequential No of 128*** and that is August 2015. You can find the full 19 character VIN stamped under the driver seat.

Gyus "S" is not written on back, only XCENT is written, is it ok?? Coz when I took TD of SX, it was written there. Should I worried about it??
As promised he gave me all accessories except neck rest n coshens. He said it was not promised. I was like �� and also he gave air freshener instead car perfume. Rest all was ok. Now my new family member giving me joy n fun. And yes VIN is exactly what I wrote in my last post. It Is 17 digit. I confirmed with written under seat. It is Nov. Make.

Congrats on your new car. Don't worry. S badging is not there for Xcent. Only SX variants come with the badge at the back. Check that the ABS indicator lights up on the instrument console to confirm.

Re: Hyundai Xcent S 1.2 - My Daily Commute - Owner's View

Hey Guys,

Am back from a long Holiday, was on Christmas and New Year Vacation. As you guys know I've got Xcent SX VTVT. Delivery was taken on 21st December at Advaith Bangalore. Vacation started on 22nd Dec.

Drove to Native for 420 kms on 22nd Dec. Didn't find any issues. Drove between 80-100 kmph,and RPM always maintained below 2500. Calculated the Mileage, tank full to tank full method, and monitoring the same on fuel log android app, it says 19.21kmpl. (2 people and little luggage on board)

Next drive was to my in-laws place, not a four-lane highway. its more state highway, and drive was through ghat section for around 60 kms, drive for 518kms mileage of 15.78kmpl [cry] (same tankfull to tankfull method) (4 people and Luggage)

Next drive was back to native, after Christmas, drive another 571 kms, 300 kms was night drive, and didnt want to spend more time driving in the night, so didnt maintain the 80-100 speed or rpm this time. mileage this time is 16.83kmpl. (4 people + 1 kid and max luggage)

First Servicing done on 02 Jan, ODO was ~1400 KMS.

Over all experience with the car is good. Enjoyed the drive. We've carried a lot of luggage. Thanks to the 400L boot. Drive was very smooth.

During this period, added somethings to my car.
-Skoda horn (Rs. 700)
-Full floor matting (Rs 1700)
-door protection (Ipop door guard) (Rs 300)

Will post the pics of the floor matting some time.

Need to get the below things soon..
-Rear speakers
-full body cover
-foot mats (Carpet or rubber)
-Door lock alarm (1st priority)
-Seat Covers

Xcent doesn't have the car lock unlock alarm. I should every time see the car for the lights, when lock and unlock is done. I enquired for the kit, the car decor guy says its Rs 2800 (autocop), should check in Bangalore. The car doesn't sound when we open with the key, instead of the remote, am think there is not anti theft feature for this.

Any one got this anti theft kit fixed to xcent? Kindly suggest me one..

And I need suggestions to buy the Body Cover and floor mats ( I like carpet ones, Beige colored) online.

Wow, That's a long trip. My Odo has just crossed 815 now.How did you find the acceleration on highways?
I did a short trip of ~400kms last week. At times I found acceleration to be lacking especially when overtaking. One needs to plan ahead and be in a lower gear to overtake smoothly.
I got the seat covers installed from JC Road for 2800. Got Beige/black fabric seat covers from Elegant.
For floor mats, I'm planning to purchase a roll of noodle mats from SP Road and cut them to match the Xcent floor area. There's a detailed thread at TeamBHP describing this.
Thanks,

1. Yes, Xcent doesn't have the sound for Lock/unlock, but it does sound the Alarm while theft ! Open the Windows and lock the car, then try to unlock the doors from Inside. Alarm will be raised.
2. I got my Cover/Floor Mats from dealer itself. But they are available in wide range online on ebay/flipkart/amazon/jazzmyride, etc.
