Hi all,

I am currently looking at purchasing a new car (preferably an accent).
I came across one, a 2003 Accent that says it is unable to reverse and
has a missing throttle. Would these be easy and cheap fixes?

Yes.

Now really - if you have to ask, it's clearly not going to be cheap.  Even
if they were simple fixes, you'd have to pay someone to do them, so how do
you think it could possibly be cheap?

Mike, I was referring to DIY fixing...

Thanks Hyundaitech!

I was referring to retail pricing.  If you're able to replace the
trans yourself, divide by about 2.

Not likely.  Expect about $2500 for transmission and throttle body.
