#49 of 55 Re: 06 Sonata getting only 20-22 MPG.....looking for answers [jlindh] by ray78 Apr 10, 2009 (3:36 pm)
Replying to: jlindh (Apr 05, 2009 7:18 pm) I drive 60 MPH and no jackrabbit starts and no skidding stops. Also most of my driving is on 4-lane highways. I also check my mileage at fillups.

Replying to: ray78 (Apr 10, 2009 3:36 pm) Ray, are you saying that you got 31 - 34 mpg when you checked your mileage at fill ups? Replies to this message: ray78 (Apr 13, 2009 7:22 pm) jlindh (Apr 14, 2009 5:46 am) craigbrooks (Apr 23, 2009 6:01 pm)

Replying to: jlindh (Apr 10, 2009 6:36 pm) Yes- from Joplin, MO to Kansas City, MO and back I averaged 32.8 MPG. Replies to this message: jlindh (Apr 14, 2009 5:46 am) craigbrooks (Apr 23, 2009 6:01 pm)

Replying to: ray78 (Apr 13, 2009 7:22 pm) I think that's outstanding for a V6 Sonata. I've fueled up at a station on the highway, reset the computer, pulled onto the highway, accelerated slowly to 65 and watched the mpg gradually increase to 29 or 30 mpg. I think 32 mpg is out of the question for my car, try as i might. Replies to this message: craigbrooks (Apr 23, 2009 6:01 pm)

#54 of 55 Problem Pumping Gas by sprkgtz Oct 02, 2009 (6:30 pm)
My 08 Sonata is difficult to gas up. The gas nozzle "clicks off" every few seconds as if it is full even when the tank is practically empty. This has happened at numerous different gas stations, with different family members pumping gas. It is difficult to tell when to stop pumping gas because of this. Has anyone heard of an ongoing problem of this sort? When I spoke to the Hyundai service manager about this today, he seemed oddly eager to have me bring in the car for repair. This makes me wonder if it is anything potentially dangerous? He did mention that he has quite a few recalled Sonatas to work on right now. Recalled? What recall would that be? Did I miss something?

Replying to: sprkgtz (Oct 02, 2009 6:30 pm) Sounds like a kinked hose to me. Or maybe the carbon canister is full of gas. Have you ever "topped off" the tank? That can force gas into the carbon canister.   The last recall by Hyundai on the 2008 Sonata was 18 months ago, for the OCS. I'd think those cars would have been fixed by now.
