I have an 03 Accent GL, I have recently realized that my AC is always on regaurdless of whether or not the AC button is pushed in. If the button is not pushed and no LED on, it will still get just as cold in the car as when the light is on. It gets quite cold, so I don't think there's a problem with the AC itself, maybe the switch is broken? Any ideas?
Thanks for any...

Hi ,
I registered here today because I am very sceptical of what the mechanic told me. The Ccheck engine light is on in my Hyundai Accent 2004. Apparently the exhaust pipe is damaged and part of it needs to be replaced. I'm OK with that. But, he then told me that they will have to charge me to drive the car for at least 1 hour in order to get the light to turn off. This is after replacing...

I hope I'm not posting to much...
My 2000 Accent (GS 1.5 AT) gets around 24 mpg. I just got it, and I've tried to increase the mileage because I drive a long distance to work. The reviews on the car all say it gets 36MPG on the highway new, so I would expect it would get around 30 now.
I've put on a SRI w/ cone filter. Replaced the fuel filter, plugs and wires,...

Hey everyone,
Anyone out there install an intake on their Accent? i recently installed one but am now concern with some drag when shifting from 1st to 2nd. Has anyone experienced this? Not sure if I need to recheck if I have a leak, but was pretty sure everything was tight and snug. Any advise would be much appreciated!!! Take care.

Does anyone know if it is possible to siphon gas for the tank of a 2000 Accent?
One friend says it can't be done, do to changes in how the tanks are make, yet another person I know says it can be done -- they just use a thinner hose to siphon the gas.
Can it be done?

After cresting the hill and letting off the gas, the car stayed in the lower gear and took about 10 seconds to upshift. This has also happened a few times in normal driving traffic on...

Alright, well I have recently purchased a 2000 Hyundai Accent, 1.5l SOHC, automatic. 117k miles. The problem is, it won't shift into overdrive. It appears that the overdrive button works, as the dashboard light turns on and off, but pressing the button has no effect on the transmission, as it still doesn't go into 4th gear. It's 3rd gear all the way down the freeway, which really...
