Replying to: rosta420 (Apr 06, 2007 8:08 pm) Hi, I just bought an '07 Accent after getting over 200,000 miles out of my '99 Accent, and I used Crutchfield.com to get detailed instructions on how to remove the old deck and speakers on the '99. Hope that helps you.
#1619 of 1685 need ur opinion please :) by angie23 Apr 26, 2007 (1:48 pm)
i'm planning of buying a brand new hyundai accent 2 door hatchback.. don't know anything about cars so i need ur honest opinion on this please. i've heard mixed reviews about this car and hyundai in general and i'm really confused. personally, i like it becasue it's cheap and it looks cute. i do not know how to judge the car beyond that. some people say that hyundai's engines don't perform that well so i've been cautioned about that.. do you think this is a good buy? the warranty looks really good, but my dad don't trust hyundai cars so i don't know what to think right now... thanks Replies to this message: backy (Apr 26, 2007 6:16 pm) babu2 (May 07, 2007 7:39 am) backy (May 07, 2007 2:59 pm)

Replying to: angie23 (Apr 26, 2007 1:48 pm) My advice is, don't just buy a car because it's cheap and looks cute. First, since you are the driver of the car, you should enjoy driving it. So take an Accent for a test-drive and figure out if it is a car that you can live with every day, in both driving and in comfort and convenience. Is the engine powerful enough for you? How does it handle? Is it quiet enough? How is the braking? Is the rear seat roomy enough for the passengers who may sit back there? Is there enough cargo room, seats up and down? And so on.   Next, make sure it has other features you want/need. Do you want anti-lock brakes, for safety? (I highly recommend them.) If so, you are limited to the Accent SE hatchback, which is higher priced than the GS. Do you need A/C? It's optional on the GS. Is reliability really important to you? If so, the Accent is a pretty reliable car, and it has that long warranty, but there are small cars with better reliability histories. Engine reliability shouldn't be a concern--the Accent's engine design has been around many years, and engines rarely fail these days with proper maintenance.   Also think about crash protection. The Accent has OK frontal crash test scores but a Poor side crash test score from the IIHS. There are other small cars, like the Yaris, Versa, Rabbit, and Fit, with much better crash test scores.   Be sure to check out the Accent's competitors before plopping down your money. For example, the Yaris and Versa are both pretty inexpensive in base form. The Fit and Rabbit (3-door) cost a bit more but are fine little cars. Some people think the Yaris 3-door is really cute--have you seen it?   Your dad probably doesn't trust Hyundais because he remembers the low-quality Excels that Hyundai brought to the U.S. starting in the mid-'80s. That was a long time ago, and Hyundai makes solid cars now. But good luck trying to convince your dad of that. Replies to this message: babu2 (May 07, 2007 7:39 am) backy (May 07, 2007 2:59 pm)
#1621 of 1685 tranny problems by mikeey43 Apr 26, 2007 (8:55 pm)
I have a 2001 Accent with very wierd tranny behaviour. The tranny is an automatic. The tranny fluid is clear and it shifts OK most of the time. Sometimes the tranny jerks when the car starts to move from a stand still.   Sometimes the car rpm's increase at low speed and the car does not accelerate. After the hesitation the car then oeprates properly. The engine seems to run well.   Any thoughts??
