To Mr kcochran:
 
Were you able to solve your problem with the power locks on your 02 sonata? I have the same problem - doors will unlock with my remote but will not lock. Is there a faulty solenoid/sensor in the the driverside door?

This happened on my 06. Turns out it was the door lock actuator. Happened on one door only though. ??

Actually it's TPMS = Tire Pressure Monitoring System

Door lock problem was solved by the
dealer installing a power lock new relay.

2004 Sonata V6 stalled: ideas? by rollingwoods

Just had a weird experience. As I pulled up to the curb to park my Sonata's engine cut out. Battery would turn engine over, but wouldn't start. After five minutes tried again, engine would barely start but coughed and shook and wouldn't go over about 500 rpms. Called AAA, by the time they got there (an hour) I tried one more time and the engine started fine. I drove it the ten miles home with no problem.
 
I was lucky I was only going 4-5 mph, since of course I lost the power steering etc. It's scary to think of it happening when on a freeway or something. Anyone else have this happen? Ideas? Never had any problems with the car before (44,000 miles).

Sonata brake issues. by rustum

Hi,
I have 2001 Sonata GLS with 79k miles on it. Recently i have inspected vehicle at Firestone. He suggested me to change my rear wheel brakes immediately. He told me that i need to change brake pads, rotors and fluid as well. He is quoting around $470 to get done all these things. According to him, i have very minimal brakes on back wheels. Do i need to change immediately. Can some one suggest me cheaper alternates.

If don't know/trust this shop, you could get a 2nd opinion. But brakes are not something to put off. Has the brake fluid ever been changed? If so, how long ago? If they are the original rear brakes, it's quite possible they need work. You might ask if the rotors could just be resurfaced vs. replaced.

Hi Backy,
Thanks for the reply. When i bought it has 57k miles on it. I have changed front wheel brake pads. Nothing done to either read wheel breaks or break fluid. I will check with other stores. Firestone is suggesting me to change read wheel brake pads, rotors and fluid for close to $480 which seems to me very high. Any other reasonable stores.
