Auto scratch

Today got scratched by an Auto while doing a unnecessary cut on a road under construction near Domlur, BLR. Just 1.5 month old car 😓😓

What are my options here? Should I claim insurance for this? Can somebody tell how much it will be quoted by the dealer, any guess from someone who had similar repaint job done?

Location : BLR

Coulda woulda shoulda

<rant>

I think hyundai really dropped the ball with their colour offerings for the i20 n line. Just bland, uninteresting. The only fun hatch on the market, meaning it's mostly bought by enthusiasts. They could've been more bolder. The boost blue of the civic type r would look soo dope on it. Or maybe baby blue (I think the eu spec i20 N has it. Actually, i20 N colours are pretty interesting as well) or the pink on vw beetle. Any takers for yellow?

Rattling sound from outside the cabin

Hi everyone!
From Bangalore.
I’m really in a pickle here. I got a brand new i20 N line N8 DCT from blue hyundai New BEL road. 10 days old car. There is a constant rattling sound whenever I go on slightly rough road or over any breaks in the road.
If feels like it’s coming from the exterior of the car and not from inside. Took to service station twice and they once fixed the door pad properly and then again told me to come on a weekday (low staff on Sunday)

I emptied the car and tested still the same sound is coming. Is anyone facing the same issue ??

Guys I need your advice on this.

My 2nd service was done on 8 th December 2025, after that I barely drove the car. Because I don't get enough time or the opportunity to go out for a drive. Tomorrow I went for a drive and the car got a software update. After that when I parked the car back at home I opened the Bluelink app after a long time and found this. While I drove the car nothing seemed odd about the handling at all, just the gear shifts from 1st to 2nd and 5th to 6th felt a bit notchy and that's it. What should I do? Should I be worried about this?

Got home this mean machine!

Got the N8 MT a couple weeks ago, and what a delight it is to drive. I got the tyre upsize right away, and the road noise and bangalore uneven road (🤬) comfort is so much better. The steering has weighed up a bit as well, which I like, but can be an issue for people who prefer a lighter feel while driving in the city.

I felt, in my limited time with this car yet, that the road noise is still an issue on highways at high speeds.

Another issue I noticed is a lack of enough low end torque. Starting from a standstill from an incline, like a flyover for example, especially with co-passengers is a bit of a struggle.

I'm also still getting used to the brakes, the feel is different in the sense that there is no initial bite, and deceleration felt linear with brake pedal pressure. I haven't given the brake pedal full beans yet so not sure of the limit of the stopping power.

The design, especially the clean, all black interior with red accents is gorgeous. No gimmicks, functional buttons and is loaded with all the necessary features.

Extended Warranty

Recently completed 1658km on my N8 MT. Got it serviced last thursday.

My question is is it worth buying the extended warranty package from the Dealer? They tried to sell it to me while buying the car but somehow I manager to dodge that and sales person did not push that much also.

But when servicing that day, service guy again tried to sell it. In his words "sir, you have bought manual version, clutch will sure shot will go bad after 3-4years. That will cost you around 25k for sure. Its better to buy the EW now. Everything will be covered. Its only 10.5k for you now."

When buying the car, it was 9 point something. In 2 months it has increased to 11k. The more I drive the more it will become.

So I was just wondering if EW really makes sense considering Bangalore B2B traffic and the pressure the clutch will get. What are the other things that EW covers, can somebody please provide a list?

Just hit 1,200 km on my i20 N Line N8 DCT. Getting 10.2 kmpl mixed—is this normal?

​I recently hit the 1,200 km milestone on my new i20 N Line N8 DCT. Right now, the app I use for logging all the refuelings is showing a mixed fuel economy of 10.2 kmpl (mostly a 60/40 split of city and occasional open ring-road driving).

​I’ve been filling up with regular 91 octane fuel since delivery. I’m not driving like a maniac, but I’m also not hypermiling—just keeping up with traffic.

​Is 10.2 kmpl expected during the initial break-in period? For those who have crossed 5,000–10,000 km, did your mileage improve after the first oil change?

​Also, does switching to 95 octane (like XP95) make a noticeable difference in the real-world FE and smoothing out the low-end turbo lag?

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.

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.

I20Nline chennai

Hello folks,
I’m planning to buy the Hyundai i20 N Line (MT) and would love to hear some ownership feedback.
What are the major pros and cons of the car?
How does it perform in city traffic? Is it jerky in bumper-to-bumper traffic?
What kind of mileage are you getting in city conditions?
I’ve heard that the N Line gives almost the same mileage as the normal naturally aspirated (NA) i20. Is that true?
What are the issue you guys are facing?
Is it true that the car starts vibrating more after prolonged usage?
Would appreciate your honest experiences and suggestions.
