I have a 1996 Hyundai Accent 4dr 1.5lt gs petrol.
Had a problem with excessive handbrake travel, took it to a national brake/
tyre Co to sort it out, they advised the rear cylinders had leaked and
required new shoes,also the dums were heavily grooved, he replaced cylinders

Anyone who bought their Hyundai vehicle new purchase the "Hyundai Protection
Plan".  I did yesterday - 10 Years/100,000 Miles bumper to bumper for
$1,120.00.  It seemed like a good deal to extend the bumper to bumper 5
years.

I just got my 2007 Santa Fe, Limited, Ultimate Package, AWD yesterday
and am, so far, very satisfied.
Question:  I noticed that Elecronic Stability Control (ESC) and All
Wheel Drive can be manually turned off or on.  Why would one want to

Does anyone know if Hyundai offers XM or Sirius satellite radio
as a factory or port built in option on the new models?
I don't see it on the website, but I was thinking that it
may be an unlisted dealer installed option.

Can someone direct me to a web site or anywhere else  with instructions on how to remove a radio from a 2005 Elantra ?  
Thank you.

I star5ed seeing the olod Check Engine light. So I checked engine oil
(OK) coolant (OK), brake fluid level etc etc.
I read around here and tightened the fuel cap. The light was coming on

This Newsgroup seems to be very light on Tucson ?'s.  Does that mean there
aren't many of us out there?  Or, is the Tucson not selling well?

when i let my hyundai sonata sit for a few hours, on start up there is
a fairly loud rattling/grinding noise coming from the left side of the
engine. It stops after about 3-4 seconds but i was just wondering if
you know what this is or have seen it before.

Or, does the water pump fall into the 5 years/50 k. mile Bumper to
Bumper warranty ?  If it falls into the latter, how much sense does it
make to replace the water pump at the same time the mechanic does the
scheduled Timing Belt replacement ?  Thanks.

I have a 2004 Hyundai Sonata base model with 2.4L engine and the 4
speed Shiftronic transmission. When stopped with the transmission in
drive and foot on the brake, there is an abnormal amount of vibration
that is felt on the steering wheel. When the tranmission is placed

The smaller light of the two on the right side is out.  What must be
done to replace it?  What type of bulb is it and can it be purchased
somewhere other than from the dealer?  Is it expensive?  Thanks for your
help on this.

I got a Santa Fe last week with the Infinity upgrade (Ultimate
Package).  There is a large speaker in the middle of the dash (where a
tray w/ lid would be without the audio upgrade).  Is this a sub woofer
or a middle channel speaker?

Thanks again hyundaitech for all your help....timing fixed....temperature
control fixed....went to drive the car....started fine...went to back up,
turned the wheel sqealllllllllllllllllllllll........I think I'm going to get
a horse.

When the temperature control knob is turned, it goes all the way to the cold
side with no problem. However, if you turn it to the hot, it only goes so
far, then if you "force" it...it clicks 3 times until it reaches the
"hottest" setting.

Wasn't there a website recently that had testimonials from Accent
owners who had 100,000+ miles?  Anyone know of the link???
Thanks in advance,
Mike
