I have a 2004 Elantra, and lately it's been making a horrible noise.

I am considering buying a '06 Tucson but I want to know what your
opinions are on the sound system with the 6 disc changer and
sub-woofer.  Is it worth the money or should I get and after market
head unit and changer?

My 1996 Accent GL has a problem with the passenger window.  It rolls
down ok (manual handle roll), but it tilts slightly toward the front
