You are in the Hyundai Sonata Forum. Your Hosts are pat & karens
| I have this problem where on the first start of the day, when I put it in reverse (to back out of garage), I hear something light going on under the hood. It's a belt sound I think, NOT high pitched, NOT squealing, just some sort of god...i don't know. Similar to when you turn on the A/C and it sounds like it's "working harder." This sux | |

Replying to: targettuning (Sep 10, 2008 6:39 am) I had taken the car in for sensor problems - aka, check engine light sysndrome! I ouched at THAT cost and was taken aback when they brought up the rear hub assembly...and IT's COSTS! It was JUST too much for me to absorb on 1 visit. However, I will take it in for this job ASAP because I am MORE anal than you...trust me. You provided the kind of information that i needed...corroburated the costs and explained the potential danger. I also was thinking about 110,000 miles on car and next timing belt requirement...pretty soon...and that cost. Maybe I should just let Hyundai sell me a new one instead! Maintenance is where the real costs are. Again, THANKS. Joe |

| When I change the oil in my 07 Sonata I get oil on the plastic cover under the engine, then it leakes on the garage floor for days. Has anyone removed the plastic cover? I would like to take it off and leave it off. Thanks | |

hello. i need to do the 15k-mile scheduled maintenance on my sonata. beside a hyundai dealership, is there any other decent place in the midwest where i can have it done, such as a midas shop? the owners manual says to inspect fuel lines, vapor hose, air cleaner filter etc. wont another car repair shop do a decent job for a lower price? i had my sonata at the local dealership a couple weeks ago to fix something else, and they noticed that i didnt have the 15k maintenance done. but how would they know? i had normal oil changes done. how did the dealership know that no one inspected fuel lines, vapor hose, etc? thanks in advance.

I was at the Hyundai Dealer today complaining about the Brake and Accelerator Pedals. The brake pedal is too high and I asked the mechanic to lower it. The mechanic says that it's a new safety feature on all new cars and he cannot lower the brake pedal. My foot and ankle ache after about an hour of driving. I am so used to simply sliding my foot from the gas pedal to the brake pedal. Now I have to continually raise my foot to reach the brake. Any suggestions?

Got a strange one. My cruise control does not work when the headlights are on. It's a 2002 (6cyl) w/ 266,000 miles and mostly trouble free. I bought it new.
