Hey everyone, I’ve recently bought an i20N. Been driving it for a while now, around a month. Unfortunately yesterday on a spirited drive, I downshifted by accident into 2nd instead of 4th, and got the ‘beware’ message on the cluster as well as hearing the revs climb excessively.
Problem is I’m not sure what speed I was going exactly and how high the engine revved. Scared the shit out of me honestly, I think I did put the clutch in as soon as I could as well as braked harshly. I have to assume I was going around 70MPH? But honestly have no idea.
Drive back home seemed fine, no new noises or anything nor any engine lights. Also feels fine, but I’m absolutely stressed lol. If anything does happen, I don’t have warranty anyways, not that I’ve tried it yet for another unrelevant issue, due to it being a write off (Cat N in the UK). So warranty isn’t really a concern as I never had it, or should have it anyways. I guess I’m just concerned if I damaged anything.
When I wake up hopefully should see how a cold start is and if there’s any issues.
Any input appreciated. I’m finding it hard to sleep lol.
