Known faults for Hyundai ix20
Our database tracks 3 specific mechanical faults and recurring failure patterns identified across UK MOT testing stations for this generation.
MOT Roadworthiness: Average
This rating reflects historical MOT pass rates and recurring advisory wear patterns from official DVSA test logs. Note that roadworthiness does not verify outstanding finance, insurance write-offs, or stolen records.
Verify lender finance agreements, insurance write-offs, police stolen registers, and mileage rollback.
Common Problems: HYUNDAI IX20
Known issues reported by owners and MOT testers.
- Track rod end wear and EPS column rattle or heaviness(Serious)
Steering is the ix20's measured weakness: Get Car Wise's MOT analysis finds track rod end ball joints wearing prematurely, with hundreds of tests recording excessive play and even serious-risk-of-detachment categories - far above the people-carrier class average. Fault File records owners reporting a rattle or knock through the electric power steering column plus heavy, inconsistent steering at parking speeds that dealers struggled to cure even with repeated rack and column replacement. It is a cheap part to fix if caught as an advisory (£100-£180 per track rod end) and an MOT failure and safety risk if not.
- CRDi EGR and DPF clogging with software power-loss(Moderate)
The diesel ix20 is the classic urban-mum MPV engine used outside its comfort zone: Fault File records flat spots and lost power under acceleration traced to EGR valve wear, sticking injectors and a DPF that never regenerates on short runs, sometimes letting fuel dilute the sump; Get Car Wise tracks the same blockage as the top diesel concern, with limp mode and expensive cleaning or replacement. RAC's owners' survey adds a distinct twist - at least one pull-away power loss was cured by dealer software, and others reported the stop-start system simply dying.
