Replying to: jm1996 (Jun 15, 2008 7:28 am) Yes! I feel bad as I thought it was my daughter or her friend who hadn't showered, but it did it when they weren't in the car and it was just me and I HAD just showered. Has anyone had any luck finding out what a fix is? I've alerted my dealership to this---even though I know think they think I'm the crazy complaining lady.

#643 of 1003 Valet Key Trunk Lockout Feature by coldgl Sep 29, 2008 (1:52 pm)
After writing a letter to Hyundai, they called me to say that some 2009 Sonatas got the feature and others did not based on manufacture date. They said my Sonata did not get the feature and that I could not get it installed. They even threatened that any attempt to install it would be considered "after market" and would invalidate my warrantee. End of story except that I wrote them a letter saying that they should have let dealers and customers know and that it was unfair because there is no price difference for those who got the feature and those who did not.

Replying to: loradora (Sep 29, 2008 10:06 am) I don't know about the Sonata specifically, but I do know that occasionally people report certain brands of gas can cause a rotten egg type smell. That might explain why it's more apparent with the sunroof open, i.e., that's an opening for the exhaust to be more noticeable.   Might be worth experimenting with different brands to see if it makes a difference. Just a thought.

Replying to: coldgl (Sep 29, 2008 1:52 pm) As with all manufacturers Hyundai constantly makes what are called "running changes" to their automobiles and SUV's. This is why you see (in fine print) on all auto brochures the statement (to paraphrase) "all information shown here is accurate at the time of printing" which simply means something might be added-removed or modified to change the specifications or features depending on the date of manufacture. Nothing new here.... running changes are usually minor so don't expect dealers to be kept up to date on them (most salesmen/salespersons I talk to don't know the product as well as I do) and don't expect Hyundai to revise the price every time they add, subtract or modify some detail, trim item or feature. Methinks thou dost complain too much. Replies to this message: coldgl (Oct 01, 2008 8:26 am)

Replying to: targettuning (Oct 01, 2008 7:13 am) Perhaps I complain too much but there is so little else to complain about with this car. The only other 2 items I can think of to complain about are the suspension "thump" noise on rough roads and the almost too short front seat. Many factors indicate the valet key feature is standard and has been standard (with knobs) until 2009 when they introduced an electronic replacement but not on all cars. Attention to detail could help Hyundai in the race with Nissan and Honda.
#648 of 1003 Rough idle at startup by sharksoup Oct 01, 2008 (6:11 pm)
Anybody had an issue with the 4 cylinder having a mildly rough idle at startup?   Have GLS 4 w/5 speed. Have noticed lately that when starting up in the morning (& evening after sitting all day) that the engine runs a little rough. Starts at about 1300 rpm and idles roughly enough that it can be felt through the steering wheel and brake pedal- after about 30 seconds or so, it settles down to about 900-1000 rpm and the roughness disappears. Is it something tied to the computer? A need to "check" the engine and get everything set before settling in?   Only 2500 miles on the car (oil changed to full syn at 1200 miles). No dash lights on. No other noticeable issues. Runs fine after that initial "warm-up" and getting good gas mileage. Live too far from the dealer to just drop it off and have them keep it overnight to check it out.   Any ideas or opinions would be welcome.

Replying to: sharksoup (Oct 01, 2008 6:11 pm) You could hope for bad gas or a vacuum hose off, but I would not fool around with it since it is 100% in warranty. The dealer may be able to read the codes and you would not need to leave it over night,

Replying to: sharksoup (Oct 01, 2008 6:11 pm) i have an 09 4cyl. also at start up it idles at about 1500rpm. Today i started it and it idled at about 2000rpm and in about 10 secs. went down to about 1000rpms. I dont know much about cars but if its something i should be worried about i'll take it in to the dealer.
