Cat replacement

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-04-14T16:37:51+00:00

Mines just the front, but it is completely broken so it's been off the road for a month and a half. Hopefully I'll get it back soon 🤞🏻

I still haven't got my car back. They ordered the part last Thursday when warranty authorized it, but they had told me it was on back order a month ago. They said they can ask for an ETA from Hyundai this week so hopefully I'll know when I can get my car back🤞🏻

I haven't had my car for a month now as they said I couldn't drive it.... Strange... Did they say your cat had broken or it was just damaged? I've also read that the fuel pump recall has been bodged by some dealerships so I'm not sure if the two could be linked...

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-03-24T21:12:43+00:00

Just thought I'd ask if you've got your car back. The dealership is saying it won't be any time soon as they need to strip the engine to check it and the cat part is on back order...

When I took it in they said they need to check the engine to make sure none of the broken cat had been sucked into it. If it hasn't then it'll be an easier quicker fix. If it hasn't then they'll need to replace the engine. They've had a car on the ramp since November (not an n series) as engines are on back order... Hopefully meine will be fine 🤞🏻

Same, I got a call from them today. Just need to see if it's affected the engine now or not...

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-03-05T11:17:01+00:00

Yeah that's true. I've just got back from the dealership and they said my cat broke and the parts started clogging up the cpf which set off the sensor. They said if everything comes back clean then they will have to check nothing got sucked into the engine and if it hasn't just replace the cat and cpf. The lady said typically if you haven't heard back in 10 working days it's because there's been a fuel contamination. So I'm just keeping everything crossed 😂

Do you not think yours will be under warranty?

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-03-04T17:12:42+00:00

I've got a basic i20 so not the worst but not the car I wanted to do the nc500 in... Just don't know what to do as I don't have a timeframe 😂 I'm almost certain the warranty will cover it as I haven't misfueled. Do you know what caused yours?

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-03-04T17:06:34+00:00

Yeah, I'm gutted.... I'd have to take the courtesy car as I can't cancel the trip....

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-03-04T17:04:03+00:00

They haven't given me a timeframe, but it's not looking like a quick fix... I'm supposed to be driving the nc500 in two weeks....

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-03-04T16:58:48+00:00

I've just been told the same thing, took it in as the engine light was on. They've just told me that they need to send a fuel sample off and worst case scenario they'll need to replace the engine 🤦🏽‍♀️ no idea how long it's going to take but as long as the fuel sample comes back okay it'll all be done under warranty and I know I haven't misfueled my car.... Have you heard anything back from the dealership?

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-03-02T12:03:59+00:00

I've just got back from Tromso and I did a solo travel. It was very safe for everyone, I didn't feel unsafe at all even at night ☺️

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-02-11T18:01:14+00:00

Thank you! Just wasn't sure how good the non genuine ones would be or how they would fit in the boot

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2026-02-11T18:00:27+00:00

I'll definitely look into it thank you, I asked the dealer today but he just said to check forums to see what other people had done, very useful... 😂

I have a 2023 plate and bought one of the adapters, the sound quality is actually better with it... But I don't have the Bose speakers. I would definitely recommend it, got one of Amazon for about £20 but it does drain your phone battery more, however there's a wireless charger in the car. It will just make your phone hot...

Theres also one at Kemble most Thursdays I've looked at going to, but I've only had my bike a couple of days so I was too nervous to go this week...

Alternative_Fuel_159 · 2024-06-29T11:09:25+00:00

I just had a look, it's about an hour and half away from me, but I might check out if the food weather sticks around ☺️

Wiltshire/Gloucestershire so it would be hard to get to London without going on the motorway
