These are available in Bluetooth versions that connect to phones or standard models with a reader attached to the socket.The throttle position sensor (TPS) is located within the i20, may fail. The sensor is used to measure the opening angle of the throttle valve. The data is sent to the control unit that contributes to the calculation for the amount of fuel required. A malfunctioning throttle sensor will cause abrupt acceleration, erratic RPM changes and a decrease in engine performance.Another issue common to i20s is the faulty transmission. The transmission is a complex part with a variety of gears that interlock to transfer power from the engine to wheels. The friction between the gears leads to wear and tear, which can cause the transmission to fail. The signs of a damaged transmission include clunking, grinding noises and the jerky acceleration.The spark plugs inside the i20 are another frequent problem area. Faulty plugs can cause engine damage by not delivering enough sparks to every cylinder. If left unchecked a damaged spark plug can cause serious and expensive engine damage.
