When i asked my sc they said new break pad needs run in to get rid of this noice.. they said will replace for me if this problem still persist after 5000km.

Detail review? all i can say its a good product. simple but effective to save fuel and to get good acceleration.

use ECO mode from level 2 to 4. this is when u caught in jams. without potent sometimes u accidently throttle more even just to make the car move during heavy jams. so ur wasting fuel. but with ECO mode u can control the throttle better since ECO mode delay your throttle response. yes it moves really slow so for me i wont put ECO level 5 or 9. level 3 to 4 already enough. if you want to cruise like normal in hway put level 2 or 3.

this setting may different from others so this is just suggestion.(some people have really heavy foot)

the result? if normal mode in highway i can get only 7.1 l/100km. but in ECO mode level 2 i can get as down as 6.6 l/100km. I even can get 5.8 l/100km sometimes. this is hway condition only. if mix condition normal mode is 8.1 l/100km but in ECO level 2 i can get 7.6 to 7.1 l/100km.

i try to get 7.1 l/100km in normal mode but i couldn't(mix). in ECO mode i can.

other modes not yet try. just once in racing mode FH level 7. i tried it at standstill, and the acceleration is WOW!. never imagine the car can go that fast. and thats in level 7 only. but for me its already satisfying.

but this review is only for 1.8 engine. 1.6 engine i'm sure will be differerent coz i heard only 1.8 with potent can increase 5 bhp. 1.6 maybe not that much.

the reason i buy this is because i read so many reviews (Malaysia & US) that 1.8 engine throttle response is not as good as other 1.8 cars. so it makes me wonder maybe 1.8 engine was detune (at throttle) from factory in getting the 40mpg. so to override it potent is the answer. this will unleash the real potential of the car is...

but i haven't really test the raw power of the engine and will not test it until i reach to 3000km or more. mau jaga engine ma....

Just curious, so we have to change the setting all the time to suit different road condition, even more frequent than changing the gear?

Yup, I'm playing mp3 files in my 1.6HS  smile.gif
I even used a 64GB finger.
Make sure it's not m4a file as the HU can't read it.

I am using mp3 format in my 32GB pendrive.. but the HU seems like unable to read..

and rumors saying kia is bringing its 1.6 turbo engine.. now that i'm sure will attract more customers and will start a new era of turbo cars, like vw....if its true i guess hyundai also need to bring its turbo engine(share the same engine). its really a shame car like volestor here in malaysia don't have turbo engine...its just a great car...i think malaysian people deserve to have good cars..

GDI engine also good but suitable for model like accents. but volester, need an aggressive engine...same as its look. well i guess sime darby doesn't care bout that.

its a great achievement for hyundai if they can sell volester turbo. u see 100% of my colleague mistaken of hyundai with KIA. really frustrated. it shows hyundai promotion is really bad. ad in newspaper also not attractive. i think hyundai sales dept need to have a change. its about time for hyundai to rise up. look at KIA RIO ad in TV and newspaper. its there. but hyundai?ad in tv, never to be seen. c'mon sime darby...hyundai needs u.

Yes.. Hyundai Service Center need to be improved as well, still far away if compare to the quality of honda or toyota service center.
