Hyundai i20 1.2, 2014, 31k, owned from new.

Occasional but getting more frequent EPAS fails for a second or two, then springs into life. Only when stationary and preparing to manoeuvre. No lights, new battery 3 yrs ago, codes not read.


Any ideas, before I send it to the garage?

Thank you, once it stops raining I'll check the battery, and maybe charge it for a day or two see if it makes any difference.

The car only does a few (sub 10 mile) trips per week.

Battery 12.2v so a little low (14.1v running) I've hooked my ctek and see how it goes. Hoping it's as simple as winter + low mileage.

Since charging I've not used the car much, all seems okay though. Interestingly checking the battery it seems under spec.
