Hyundai Ioniq 28kWh - thread 2.0

Fiery mutant · 02-02-2022 3:27pm

Yeah sounds the same. Started end October, has gradually gotten worse. Was due to be checked when in for service in early December, but had to cancel the service as the little lad was sick. Booked for service and look at the issue on feb 10th, but brought it in earlier and asked them to check as it was getting louder and starting to worry me.

A potential option if it really does end up being a 10 k job is to maybe get a 2nd hand motor off a crashed car or the like.

At 3 weeks out of warranty the "goodwill gesture option" is very much still in play if the car has a full main dealer history.

Keep pushing them until you get a satisfactory outcome.

3 weeks ago Hyundai would have been taking the full 10 k hit under warranty.

Theres a strong case that the bill shouldn't be anything like 10 k to you now.

The "im not buying another Hyundai again if this isn't sorted" card is very strong.

Plus the fact you will be telling people you know about this issue.

Hope it gets sorted without too much expense at your end.

Its possible btw that you might end up getting a solution that involves you paying something.

The key is to minimise the amount of money you shell out.

But from the link that KCross posted above, it seems that the motor isn't the root cause of the problem and the likely cause is a tiny misalignment of the splined shafts causing wear on the bearings?

And it's possible that if the motor is replaced, the same problem will reoccur in a number of years time. What kind of warranty do you get on a replacement motor? 5 years, 12 months?

Mickeroo · 02-02-2022 4:33pm

I thought the motor comes under the 8 year warranty or is that purely for the battery?

denismc · 04-02-2022 9:51am

I notice that changing the oil for for the reduction gear is in the service schedule for the new I5 at around 60k km but not in the old Ioniq service schedule,

maybe this was causing some issues.

Looking at a high milage ioniq 28. Anything I should look out for of be aware of?

Post a link to the ad. Warranty is age and mileage based and depends on year of manufacture too, as they changed it over the years

That's redulicously cheap. I would consider it myself. However 5 year everything Hyundai warranty is up before end this year, battery 200,000km warranty is up. You would need to budget 5,000 for any future problems, but at that price it's a bargain. Even if the battery totally failed you could probably source and fit a used replacement and still save. Things that tend to go on high mileage ioniq 28kWh? I don't know of any. There is the current and previous recalls which you should check have already been done, but one was only January this year. You should check everything electrical is working and get a mechanic to check basics like for NCT. If you are technically minded use a cheap obd reader to read back battery health and check if any battery cells look to be on the way out. I would also check for any noises from the motor or "gearbox" in case bearings are on their way out. If you can take the risk of something major going at a future date and if you have the cash on hand to fix it or buy a replacement car then I would grab it with both hands. If you tell seller you know warranty is out, then you might get a discount. I would check it over 100% with mechanic, even bring it to local garage and ask to lift it up and check. I would be quick too ad it may sell quick. Bring a raincoat!

After looking up some reviews of that dealership I think I'm going to pass. It looks to good to be true and I don't have the time to check everything in detail.

How much was it lads?

And for future reference, always good to describe this sort of stuff in your post, before the ad is gone and us late clickers are none the wiser.

Between 11 and 12k.

ELM327 · 21-02-2022 10:26am

Yeah that's a scam for sure. Ioniqs would start from 15-16k even for a 162 plate with 200k km

Mickeroo · 21-02-2022 10:34am

Yeah, definite whiff of too good to be true off it.

loopymum · 21-02-2022 2:39pm

Any recommendations for a pure sine wave inverter to plug into car for emergency power? I saw someone talking about it the other day but the search function is so bad now I can't find it. Something about getting a fused one for safety, what's that about?

zg3409 · 02-03-2022 3:18pm

A guy on Facebook in Navan is offering a protective cover for the ioniq/Hyundai granny cable charger control box. This rubber pocket reduces the chances of the control box from cracking if dropped. It's an official recall supplied for free by Hyundai. If anyone has the official granny charger without this protective cover as Hyundai or pm me and I'll put you in touch.

I don't think I have that cover, is it free?

02-03-2022 9:45pm

I got it for free at my last service.

However I don't have a granny cable for it!

05-03-2022 3:02pm

Actually if anyone doesn't have the cover, but needs it - free to collect from me in D12.

I’d be delighted to take it off your hands if still available? I’ll send you a PM now…..

did the 28kW finish in 2019 or 2020, im seeing conflicting info...

Mine is 2019 and is a 28kwh model. 2020 cars are all 38kwh. It's possible there are some late 2019 38kwh models knocking around.

Soarer · 09-03-2022 9:18pm

Exclusing the bigger battery, and the slower charging speeds, does the 38kWh Ioniq gain/lose anything feature-wise when compared to the 28kWh Premium or Premium SE?
