P029900. Turbocharger/supercharger underboost
Automotive Expert
can I ask what vehicle the issue is on? what vehicle is the issue on?

Hyundai i30 2017 automatic,diesel
Automotive Expert
ok and is there any smoke from the exhaust?

A little but noises from engine ,underpower not picking speed
Automotive Expert
ok so the first place to start here is to check the turbine inside the turbo for any excess play as this will cause oil usage and lack of boost pressure

Ok
Automotive Expert
this is the first place to start it sounds a lot like turbo failure

I am not a mechanic of any sort just want to find out if it’s covered under Hyundai warrantywould I be causing more bigger issues by driving it
Automotive Expert
it's possible yes but until the cause has been confirmed it's very difficult to say. I would not drive at all until its been assessed

I don’t have any other choice
Automotive Expert
Ok so its very possible that more damage could be caused by continuing to drive

Would it be covered under Hyundai warranty
Automotive Expert
it's impossible to tell. if all oil changes have been carried out on time at dealer it's possible yes it would be covered

Otherwise,if not how much would it roughly cost
Automotive Expert
turbo could run around £1200

Oh no
Automotive Expert
unfortunately its not a cheap component to replace

With the situations as they are I am buggered
Automotive Expert
really sorry to give bad news

I am so stuck now,I need it to be covered by warranty any suggestions please
Automotive Expert
nothing you can do to change a warranty coverage .all you can do is get the car accessed and hope its covered

Anything else I can do
Automotive Expert
that's the only option at this point

This site charged me £22For phone call plus £5
Automotive Expert
i am just a technician working to answer questions ,i have no control over charges for any issues you need to contact customer services
