Haha! Yes it is a moderately involved job that took several hours. Should you do it? It depends how versatile one wants their i30 to be. I still have my i30 and it has clicked over 280K and still going strong, so well worth the effort for me. Others change their cars more regularly so not really worth it if you don't plan to get at least a few years out of it. I'd encourage you to have a go at yours. It is certainly doable and give you a sense of satisfaction.

@@sarcasmo57 I was initially worried about pulling off the rear bumper, but it is very durable and flexible and wont break. I would have no hesitation about pulling it off now. Similarly the tail lights seemed like they might break on removal, but if you watch my video at that section you will be fine as long as you remove all the bolt and pull it in the correct direction. A 2018 model should come off even easier. I'm not sure the Accent is completely the same, but should be almost identical. All the best with whatever you decide.

I bought a Melbourne made Hayman & Reece at Salisbury towbars in SA & they fitted it. I hired a 7x4 caged mechanically braked 4 wheels caged. 6 trips, I bought a house 200 km from Adelaide. I surprised how well & stable my petrol i30 6 speed manual tows. 5 th gear cruise control a 100 kmh. Very stable. I bought a second-hand 6x4 deep trailer, second hand, new condition for $1500.00 & it's garaged so it won't rust.

Couldn't agree more regarding the i30. Sits on the road like a sports car (mine running 19s and low profile Bridgestones) but will pull a trailer like a big six. Mine just clicking over 255K and everything still works, still original.

Thank you so much for your well explained video. I've got the diesel i30 also and wanting to be able to tow a small cage trailer occasionally. Can you please explain why you had to run the green wire inside the boot space? Was that so you could hook up the plug for the trailer lights? Did you happen to do a video on that as well?
@jonono63

Hi Taneeker. Unfortunately I did not make a video of the wiring of the trailer plug, but yes the green wire was to access the right hand blinker for the trailer. All the other trailer wires (lights and brake lights and left blinker) can be wired from the one (left) side. If you take a still of the video at 14:08 you can see which wires I spliced the trailer plug to). Sorry it is not clearer on the video.

Great video, but just something that sort of jumped out, as an engineer, in the building blocks of learning it was always explained that the ONLY TIME you put a Bolt in upside down was because there was no room to install it the correct way ie Always Facing Downwards in case the nut became loose and if you had no option but to install upwards then ALWAYS install a Lock Nut, see 9.17 I have to say that having watched the video it soon became apparent that it was a pretty skilled job and not one for me, I would be just to scared of scratching my rear panel or snapping off the fixings.

Thanks for the comments. Your bolt suggestion was a good idea and I should have used a lock nut. Regarding doing it yourself, I would encourage you to have a go. The rear skirt is quite durable and will not mark easily. However, I would ensure plenty of space, well lit, and probably higher than I had the rear. Ideally, a hoist.

I have an sv 650 1999 (38k) . I use it to commute to work 5 days a week. I've had another camchain tensioner fail on me . On both occasions I was slow speed . The first time it happened the camchain came half off the exhaust cam sprocket on the front cylinder. The second time (the other day) I hit the kill switch as soon as I heard the rattle. Both tensioner failure's where on the front cylinder. I've come to the conclusion that the front cylinder tensioner cannot get enough lubricant due its vertical mounting position . The lack of oil is causing the spring inside to rot away and eventually break. This rotting of the spring has been speeded up by having water in my oil . The water is caused by the engine getting hot and cold two times a day and sweating inside . I am guilty for not changing my oil and filter often enough. To try and cure the problem I will change oil and filter more often and periodically put some oil into the back of the tensioners by removing the m6 bolt . The tensioners don't need to be taken out to oil them . Note that If your tensioner springs are already corroded, adding oil may unseize them and cause a failure !

Sorry have not got back to you on this as I don't check emails and I'm not a regular youtuber. To tell the truth the bike has been under a tarp in the garage for several years now. It developed another electrical fault, and I'd just had enough of mucking around with it and had so many other maintenance jobs around the house that needed doing. So I stopped riding it. Perhaps will try again soon. However, apart from reliability issues i really love the bike. It sounds good, has amazing torque, good fuel economy, and is fun through the twisties. I put on a gsxr 750 shock which improved the handling substantially.
