Hi there,
I have a wrecked 1998 Accent that I guess I'm decidning to fix, it sure is hard to find parts for it anyplace in NY and PA.

I am Ronnie Waugh, I purchased the Accent car two years back and it is now
starting rusting very badly. The rust is under the hood on all bolts and
all over under the car.
i feel that i had done a big mistake by purchasing this car.
Does anybody else had the rusting problem?

Does anybody know if, it would be a problem of not running with an Air Flow sensor for a day or two..
No major distances say about 20 km or so.
Would I do any damage to the engine or should I stay under "X" in speed?

Hi,
I am a new member on this forum and a proud owner of a 97 Hyundai Accent GL.
I bought the car in December 2004 with 140.000 km. The car runs great (the motor), but after I changed the transmission oil at the Canadian Tire...the transmission started to act strange. If the motor is cold and around 1/2 hours after I start driving...the shifts are a little bit brutal...at 3000 rot/min....

Hello, all. I'd be ever so appreciative if someone would take the time to expain this. My wife's '99 Accent is in need of both license plate bulbs being replaced. Is this process done by unscrewing the pieces on the outside or by going through the inside (which seems to involve popping out a couple plastic pieces)? Thanks very much.
