Best Winter Tires for my 2009 Limited? by nysniper28

I don't Know about the rest of you but the Hancook tires (215/55-17) on my limited are absolutly horrible in the upstate NY winter weather. So I have been looking around to getting rim and winter tire package. I looked at TIRERACK.COM and was looking to go down to smaller rims (215/60-16) which is suggested. But they suggest the goodyear eagle ultra grip GW3 which is a "performance snow tire". I am close to buying this but was wondering if anybody had any other suggestions on a BETTER tire maybe that they have had experience with (and the best place to get them if possible)? Or another website that offers different winter tires and RIMS? Thanks!
 
(Also looking at the Blizzak WS 60)

Goodyear Assurance Triple tread. I put these on my 2002 Sable and it made all of the diference in the world. Before I purchased these tire the front tires would spin in the rain when I left a stop sign.

I like thse tires as well. The only downside I've noticed is slightly higher road noise.

sun visors by azeradave

Has anyone had problems with Sonata sun visors? I had the driver's side replaced a few weeks ago because it would not "stay up". The dealer said it was a tension issue in the visor, and was replaced under warranty. Now I am waiting for the passenger side to be replaced. The service rep said this problem is common for this model...even with the new ones. I have a 2007.

2006 Sonata - Flywheel Replacement by clccj

I brought my 2006 Sonata (74K mi) into the dealer to check on a grinding noise. I am not the original owner, so I am beyond the warranty. They clam it is the flywheel in the transmission? Has anyone heard of this, and should this happen at this mileage???

The right sun visor on my 2006 Sonata did the same thing. It was replaced under warranty. The service manager said they finally got a service bulletin on this problem, so it must be a common problem.

Auto Door Re-lock - Disabling by newowner10

I wounder if there is a way to make the door not auto re-lock in my garage?
 
This is my story go out to the garage to get a book out of the car. Do not have my keys with me. Go back inside the house and get my keys off of the second floor. Head back to the garage and unlock car door. Get what I need and leave car unlocked. Hour later go back to return book to car doors are re-locked. Do not have key. Repeat above steps. I assume if you do not place keys in ignition car assumes you unlocked door by mistake so it re-locks them. Aggravation occurs

Newowner,
I only notice this if I hit the remote to unlock the doors and don't open a door. As long as I open a door after hitting the unlock everything seems to stay unlocked. Not sure what is happening to yours.

What I've found is that some remotes, including those on two Elantras I've owned, are pretty sensitive on the lock button, so it is very easy to lock the car accidently just with a slight touch--even by putting the remote into my pocket can do it, or hanging it by the garage door where it can bump into another remote or the door trim or whatever. That might be what is happening to your car.
