My Hyundai has indications of sludge on the oil cap. I change oil every
5000 - 8000 miles, but may have gone 9000 once. Could the 1 longer stretch

I recently sold my 2005 Elantra and bought a 2006 Santa Fe.  I had put
a trailer hitch on the Elantra for my bicycle rack so when I sold it I

Tried Ebay without results and Craigs List.  Any other advice?

I've been doing a little research for an upcoming car purchase.  Last night
I looked at Hyundai for the first time.  It has an impressive list of
standard features and seems to be a good value.  One option not offered is a
remote starter.  I hate to take a brand new car to some ...

I purchased a brand new 2006 Sonata with the 3.3L V6/ auto trans in

I changed my oil in my 2006 Sonata and used a Bosch OEM filter I bought over
the internet from a Hyundai dealer.  It doesn't have the valve in the bottom

said the valve kept the oil from draining out of ...

Hello all, I have a 04 Sante Fe with the 3.5 V6 and 44,000 miles.  In the
past few months, the car has developed a peculiar problem.  At times, when
moderately accelerating from a stop, the car will take off like I've put my
