Headlight Suggestions
Hi everyone,
First time car owner here. I have 2026 i20 Sportz purchased in March. I have had no complaints so far except the suspension is a little bit on the stiffer side which makes it better on the highways but equally bad in my city riddled with potholes and speedbreakers.
Anyways, the other complaint is the abysmal light on this machine. It is highly inadequate for night driving and also felt unsafe at times. I went to a local car accessories shop which suggested me headlights from an unnamed brand (picture attached).
Now I don’t want to alter the electronics or install a really high powered headlight that would blind the other guy but need adequate enough to drive at night.
I think my car has the yellow halogen lamps and have no idea about led lights being fit there, the whole context about led lamps in halogen reflectors, relay for higher powered lamps and whatnot (youtube confused me more)
So it is a kind request to you all to educate me and help me choose the best one for me and my family’s safety.
Best,
Extended warranty - worth taking?
List of coverages shared by showroom. Just wanted to check if it’s worth going ahead with (I have the Sportz IVT)
4th service
Gotta get the 4th service done, confused if i should get it done at Hyundai Service center or some where outside.
The showroom/service center quoted me 10.5k approx for service
(Kms - 30,000)
Suggestions please.
How can I fix this?
Stupid me bumped the door on a pillar while parking. How can these scratches be removed? There are no dents. Just a minor impact but visible scratches.
Infotainment tempered glass
I’m having i20 asta, Is it necessary to put tempered glass on infotainment system. My mother and sister they mostly use and they have nails because of that screen should not get damage. Share your thoughts
Subwoofer is it bose branded ?
Hi guys, recently purchased i20 Sportz Optional IVT that has bose speakers. I noticed one particular thing that on the subwoofer there's no bose branding, speakers has the bose branding...Could someone please confirm if it's the same in top asta optional models as well ?
Finally got the nasty dent removed, repaired and repainted
Door line looks fine but i am actually afraid about the paint shade match as its been 3 years since i got my car there’s some dullness in paint.
Hyundai i20 IVT owners – how do you get the best mileage? Tips pls 🙏
Hey guys 👋
I recently got an i20 IVT and I’m trying to understand how to get the best mileage out of it, especially in city traffic (Bangalore kind of conditions 😅).
Would love to hear from existing i20 CVT/IVT users:
- What mileage are you getting (city/highway)?
- Any specific driving habits that helped improve it?
- Do modes like Eco actually make a noticeable difference?
- Ideal speed/RPM range to maintain?
- Things to avoid (hard acceleration, idling, AC usage, etc.)
Also any general tips on maintenance or driving style that helped you improve mileage would be super helpful 🙌
Trying to balance smooth driving + decent fuel economy 😄
Thanks in advance!
i20 N-Line RaceNote Valvetronic Exhaust note
This is my RaceNote Valvetronic Exhuast note after cold start. The sound gets louder and better after the engine heats up a bit. I know I have to wait longer until I can rev, but risked it a lil bit for the video lol. (revved the car towards the end of the video).
Also the phone microphone can only capture so much, it sounds 10x better in person, trust me. It is bassy and sweet.
I have gotten people stop me in traffic to compliment my car's exhaust sound. It is not obnoxious at all and hits the right sweet spot which makes it pleasant to listen to.

I have an i20 N-Line MT N8, Stage 1 tuned. Ask me anything.
I have an i20 N-Line MT N8. I got its ECU remapped via Superchips, added a BMC Air filter and also got a RaceNote Valvetronic Exhaust. Imo, this exhaust is the best for i20 as it sounds bassy and sweet.
I also recently got the doors double damped with Blaupunkt’s gold damping sheets. This is a must have. It tremendously improves cabin noise insulation and the ambience. The doors have a better solid thud, random imperfections on the road don’t make the car rattle like a tin can and it fully unlocks the potential of the Bose audio system.
I also plan to get the Cobra lowering springs (30/40 mm drop) this weekend.

Ask me anything!
TPMS
My car’s TPMS is showing the rear left tyre at 24 PSI while all the other tyres are around 35 PSI. But when I checked visually, the tyre looks perfectly fine, no noticeable flattening or low air, and there’s no puncture either.
Is it covered under warranty?
I have to work even on Saturdays but at least the roads are empty
Drove from Delhi to Gurgaon on NH-8 and achieved 21+ kmpl mileage for the majority of the drive.
i20 Sportz (O) IVT
Need help with boot rattling noise – 2025 Hyundai i20 Sportz
​
My 2025 Hyundai i20 Sportz (around 1 year old) has a rattling/knocking noise from the boot area, mostly when driving on patchy or uneven roads.
Things I already checked:
- Removed the hazard triangle
- Tightened the spare tyre holding nut
- Removed the parcel tray / cabin separator
The noise is still there.
It seems to come from the rear boot area only on rough roads. On smooth roads there’s no issue.
Has anyone faced this?
Anyway to have mileage reading (elite 2015)?
This older model doesn't have any mileage reading, any suggestions on how I can have the reading which modern cars have?
Should get pdi or not?
Like the title suggests im getting an i20 asta(o) ivt and the delivery is soon.
I can get a pdi done tomorrow if needed. Do yall think it’s necessary to get it done or it isn’t necessary?
Also please drop few suggestions on where to get pdi from.
Planning to buy asta (o), need guidance
Me and my friend both are planning to buy Asta (o) variant. This car is our debut buy.
The dealer told us that the make month in stock is for Feb 26. We are assessing if we buy in May 26, will this be a good buy or should we do an external PDI to be sure there are no defects.
Please guide us on the next steps.
