I'd say you either have a slightly loose lower control arm or loose top strut mount (common).

I don't normally do a "me too" post, but what you said.
 
Also, the best mechanics power flush about 1 1/5-2x the amount of fluid the system holds, in order to insure that all liquid has been fully replaced. And as mentioned, you need to drain the torque converter.
 
Open, drain, flush, close (late in the flush, when you know you have the system refilled with a continuous stream), fill.
 
Very different, and much more effective, than drop pan, pour out old tranny fluid, reattach pan, and refill. That would actually scare me in a modern transmission, as it could leave the possibility of air bubbles in the system.

Hi. I just bought a used HySon 2006. Can someone please point me to the rear window defrost button? Thanks.

I have a 2008, but the design is the same, I believe. Take a look at the center of your fan speed selector knob. Push that to activate the rear defroster. The A/C switch is designed the same way on the air temperature knob. The setup may be different for automatic climate control.
 
You may want to register on the Hyundai site and download a user's manual.
 
Now, if someone can tell me the purpose of the blinking red light on top of the dash, I'll be all set!

I thought it might be that one, but the picture is not obvious.
Registering is a good idea. I'll do that.
Thanks for your help.
Which blinking red light do you mean?

I'm 99.9% sure that it is a way to signal that the theft deterrent is armed. Even if the doors aren't armed (i.e. the car honks when the doors ar opened), I think that the light itself is a deterrent.
 
That's my guess.

Rear defrost button is in the center of the large vent selecter knob if it is manual a/c. If auto climate, I have no idea.

Right. I said fan speed knob, but realized this morning when looking at my dash that it's really the vent selector knob. How about we say it's the big knob on the right?
 
As for the red light, it is on top of the dash and blinks whenever the key is out of the ignition. It blinks rapidly when I hit the lock button on my key fob. I agree that it probably just serves as a deterrent to make thieves think the car alarm is armed whether it is or not. However, I could not find any mention of it in the manual.

What is the power seat switch for the recline or forward/back?
