Replying to: LASHAWN (Jul 22, 2009 1:56 pm) I believe that using the "Wrong" filter is different then using the correct Fram filter. Even if you used the wrong Hundai filter it would not be covered if the oil leaked out.

Replying to: mkv1 (Aug 20, 2007 6:14 pm) I have had a problem with my 04 Sonata AC running fine in the morning then as temps. rose during the day it would run cold then hot randomly. I was also having problems with the engine performance at the same time the AC was acting up, felt like I was dragging a trailer with flat tires. The dealer check the AC and said there was no problem and no leaks, and the forums only said that the problem was either the compressor or clutch going bad. Not having the $600 plus to replace the compressor, I went to AutoZone and bought a AC recharge kit for $40.00 and drained my system completely and recharged it with "new" coolant. The car's AC now runs excellent at any temps. even above 96 degrees with NO engine performance drain. I now believe that the lubricant in the system was either low or bad, the dealer now says that the system may have been over charged. I have talked to some other Hyundai owners who believe that the earlier Sonatas were using a poor coolant replacement when they had to switch over to the newer coolant, the dealer also said that there were some questionable problems with coolants when the switch from R12 was done. Hope this helps you out some, I know I spent months trying to find a fix for mine.
