I do not know the cause. It could be found out only by opening up the turbo charger. It was a very minor oil leak and since I had good rapport with service people, they pushed Hyundai for warranty claim. There was no performance loss or any error codes in Hyundai obd scan.

re: Remapped Hyundai Grand i10 1.1L CRDI : 79k km done

Hello team,
I noticed a kich-kich sound from right front suspension while driving on bad roads. Also this sound can be produced by shaking the car. I suspect it to be rubber mounting of front right strut. Advice please.
Thanks

re: Remapped Hyundai Grand i10 1.1L CRDI : 79k km done

Hello team,
I want to share my new observation about diesel tronic box in my car. There is considerable power gain when I shift modes to p1 or p2 below 100 kmph. Today I was driving at 120 kmph in stock mode and felt no difference when I switched to p1 or p2. I tried this multiple times and same result. Is it because tuning box is not making any significant gain at top end?

Horn not working
I noticed Intermittent working of horn. It finally gave up and stopped. I thought it was a minor issue. I went to HASS thinking to adjust/replace the horn. To my surprise, horn was perfectly OK. The culprit was switch/socket behind the steering wheel panel. It was diagnosed by OBD tool. It is a common socket for horn and airbag sensor. It comes as an unit and costs 2500 rs. SA said it is a common complaint for Hyundai cars with airbags.

re: Remapped Hyundai Grand i10 1.1L CRDI : 79k km done

I have run 33K KM post brake pads change. I noticed huge sound from front left side brakes yesterday. To my surprise, brake pads were fully worn out and even disc was badly damaged with scratches. I am thinking to replace the front disc along with brake pads. I should have driven with worn out pads for couple of KMS for the disc to get damaged. But I did not notice any sound before. Brake pads are supposed to have indicator which produces sound when pads are worn out. Grand i10 has good sound insulation and would that be a reason for not noticing the sound?

New brake discs cost 2,000 Rs. I got the present brake discs faced at lathe for 500 Rs. Also I got new brake pads. Braking is fine now and facing turned out to be VFM.

re: Remapped Hyundai Grand i10 1.1L CRDI : 79k km done

Decided to remap once again!!

I have been using RD single channel box since few months. I had tried to remap with Code 6 before getting the box and it turned out to be one horrible experience. I was happy with power gain with RD box. There is good difference in mid range. But low and top end felt almost like stock. Now I am considering to give remap another shot (definitely not again with Code 6). I have already spoken to few tuners. I hope at least my next remap experience for Grand I10 would work out . There is no issue with RD box. But I know a good remap can totally transform the car. Power delivery across the revv band should be possible with a remap.

re: Remapped Hyundai Grand i10 1.1L CRDI : 79k km done

I have run 64,000 KM in 3 years. My car is out of warranty now. I am planning to service my car in some FNG from now. Hyundai dealers in Mangalore do not sell spare parts over the counter. 99rpm also doesn't sell Hyundai parts (though listed in their website). I have ordered ZIP air filter from parts big boss. Air filter is very easy to change. It costs 270 Rs for ZIP air filter.

I received the air filter (ZIP brand) from parts big boss. It was very easy to change air filter in Grand I10. Car is now ready to undergo remap next week .

Last update :

Decided to sell the car. This was a wonderful car and have never let us down. There is not even single rattle till date. Service costs were also very reasonable. Nobody is driving the car now, too many cars in garage for dad haha. So we have decided to put her up on sale. Planning to get Abarth Punto or New Figo sports as replacement (Mission ON - To convince dad )

Grand i10 doesn't suit you you need something faster and more stable. Both are good Abarth/Figo! If you buy Abarth your Scross will feel neglected soon after Turbo petrols are an intoxicating breed.

I had read your post where you were running on both Code 6 remap and Petes box in your Swift. I too had tried the same : TOT remap + RD box. I was happy, but it lasted only for few days . I got bored (spoilt by my Wolfed S-Cross 1.6 haha)

re: Remapped Hyundai Grand i10 1.1L CRDI : 79k km done

We had decided to sell the car long time back. I was living in Mysore and this job was given to dad. He got lazy and never really tried to sell the car .

It was really long time since I drove the car. Decided to take for a short spin (20 km). I was shocked, the car felt lot more powerful. I have no idea how. There was zero lag and car was pulling very well. The car is running on Tune O Tronics remap. I wanted to end this confusion and timed the car. Yes it was FAST!! It did a very impressive 12.5 seconds 0-100 on GPS app. Frankly I have not timed the car properly before. We had V boxed it only once, that was with Map 1 from TOT. TOT had given me better map on same day, it felt a lot better and was not V boxed. I had tried 0-100 timing once and it was around 13.8 seconds. I really do not know how car feels more faster now, it has been documented too. I even took a speedo video of 0-100. It is close to 11 seconds

I need to fix few things in the car.

1. AC is not cooling

2. Gearbox sound : most likely it is input shaft bearing noise

3. Rear 2 tyres are bald. I have 2 Kenda tyres with me. Need to install them.
