My 2012 Hyundai i20 gets a few maintenance updates after 1.3L km

The speedometer was erratic jumping between zero to the actual speed.

BHPian Romins recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

A few updates on maintenance of 2012 i20 CRDI, with odo 1,30,000

Recently dashboard showed an Electric power steering (EPS) system warning light, which started intermittently and was constant. The speedometer was erratic jumping between zero to the actual speed. My initial worry was EPS motor going bad. When the speedometer was showing zero, the EPS motor was not working as expected - no extra weight at higher speeds which makes it very sensitive to slight turns at high speeds. I got the scanning done and it was confirmed speedometer sensor was the culprit for this behaviour. Surprisingly, the sensor did not need a replacement. After cleaning the connectors it was working fine. Here is the part number in case you need a replacement.

Both RH and LH's lower arms needed a replacement because the rubber parts were worn out or cracked. The front suspension started making noise while climbing speed breakers in the city and at some bridges on the highways. We can replace the bush and individual parts which add up to almost the same amount for a single unit.

The clock spring was another part that needed replacement. The airbag warning light was the symptom and the audio controls on the steering will not work properly.
