A few Hyundai i20 questions.

A few Hyundai i20 questions.

Just bought a Hyundai i20 1.2 Active 2013, 33K miles. Two questions: 1. Cam belt or chain, and if belt, recommended replacement age/miles? 2. The 15” alloy wheels have different tyres front and back - 185/60 R15 back, 185/55 R15 front - is this a problem?

Our answer:

Hi Stu,

First up, that car's engine has a timing chain, so no set replacement schedule.

It should definitely have the same tyre sizes all-round, so we'd advise you to get that sorted as soon as possible for safety reasons. The correct size is 185/60 R15.
