#2725 of 3016 Re: help, i cant fill my tank [wolves310] by newowner10 Dec 18, 2008 (10:47 am)
Replying to: wolves310 (Dec 18, 2008 10:13 am) Have you tried different gas pumps? I had a car that did that but only at certain pumps. I use to turn the handle over and it worked fine. Possibly not placing the nozzle in all the way may help. It would have nothing do with the fuel filter unless you mean the "Fuel Tank" air filter. Do you here a whooshing noise when you take the cap off?

Replying to: wolves310 (Dec 18, 2008 10:13 am) I had the same problem. Dealer replaced a vapor tank that had filled up with gas an corrected the problem. Apparently the blatter is only to take vapor, had allowed gas to come in. This was on my 2004 Sonata with less than 4000 miles. Had no problem after replacement.

Replying to: otto65 (Dec 18, 2008 4:20 pm) These problems can be caused by "over-filling" the tank.   Don't squeeze in every last drop. If the fuel pump has an auto shut off, stop fueling when it kicks off, don't force more fuel into the tank.
#2728 of 3016 ABS & ESC Lights on after towing by aps4 Dec 21, 2008 (11:38 am)
This friday I was stuck in snow and had to be towed a few hundred meters. The tow truck lifted the front wheels up and pulled forward. Regular commercial tow truck company. The ABS & ESC lights came on from then. Any idea what could that be & how to correct it
#2729 of 3016 Mechanics! by Fard Dec 23, 2008 (8:57 pm)
Hello   I am just wondering if somebody knows a good mechanics for Hyundai (Sonata) in LI (maybe in Port Jefferson). I got few mechanics here but am not sure if they can provide a good diagnose for this car(which I bought last week). I would also like to buy a warranty if it is possible. It is 2001 and doesn't have any warranty.   Thank You Replies to this message: pat (Dec 24, 2008 7:43 am) bakesalee (Dec 27, 2008 10:37 am) kcochran (Dec 27, 2008 2:06 pm)

#2731 of 3016 Changing the oil by bakesalee Dec 27, 2008 (10:37 am)
Replying to: pat (Dec 24, 2008 7:43 am) I'd like to change the oil for the first time on a 2.4L 2003 Sonata. Anyone know what size the drain plug is? I need to buy that tool. Replies to this message: kcochran (Dec 27, 2008 2:06 pm)

Replying to: bakesalee (Dec 27, 2008 10:37 am) The drain plug on my Sonata is 17 mm. Hope this helps.
#2733 of 3016 Strange start up 07 V6 Sonata by sonotuh Dec 29, 2008 (10:20 am)
07 Sonata V6, 22K miles   Live in New England. A day or two after our heavy snow storms and lots of rain, I went to start the vehicle after it had been resting for almost 24 hours. The day before I had done a lot of driving through snow and slushy snow. The temps when I started the car were high 20's Fahrenheit.   I started to turn the key. The engine began to turn over, but before it made it all the way, there was a 4 - 5 second period of a loud thumping and bouncing sound coming from under the hood. The way I can describe it is imagine a 5 pound basketball bouncing around inside the engine and under the hood. I held the key in the start position during this, in shock and horror, and then the car started. That was a week ago and I've had no problems since.   Have service appointment scheduled for later this week. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks. Love these forums, I'm always lurking.

Replying to: sonotuh (Dec 29, 2008 10:20 am) A chunk of ice in the wrong spot comes immediately to mind. The dealer should be able to spot any damage.   Next time, you might consider aborting the start.
