• Hyundai i20 - ABS Pump/Modulator 14 Jul 2017 (Forum)
  anyone know if it'll need coding (the garage didn't seem to be sure)? Also, I've seen ECU repairers who seem to be able to send repaired modules that don't need coding. So someone apart from Hyundai can get by the problem. Would be interested to hear from any Hyundai owner this happened

  Virtually all modern cars require these infernal ECUs' to be interogated using a diagnostic tool when the MIL illuminates on the dashboard. My questions are: what is the difference, if any, between a 'code reader' and a 'diagnostic tool'? I have read that in 2001, due to legislation in the USA

• KIA Rio - Petrol consumption 5 Jun 2011 (Forum)
  this year and has been back to the dealer's twice, they apparently carried out diagnostic inspections but found no fault records. The last dealer updated the ECU but there seems to be no difference. Am I expecting too much, are all these models heavy on fuel or is there any tuning that can improve things.
