First timer here. Unfortunately I have to say that I own a 2002 accent gl 1.6L with a/t. Would like to know if anyone has had a problem with the gas tank bubbling up and/or overflowing when the tank is not full. At first I thought it was the gas pump nozzle, but after going to a few gas stations I realized the problem is my gas tank system. I also get the "check engine light on.

I just put my Accent in for service, and they told me the clutch needed to be replaced because it was worn. the car is 1.5 years old, and has 26k miles on it. little did we know the clutch is only covered for 1 yr. / 12k miles.
i feel it is way premature for a clutch to be completely worn, and that something must have been wrong or installed wrong from the factory.

Hi,
My 01 Accent GS is making a soft ticking noise when accelerating and pretty much only when my foot is on the gas pedal. The ticking inreases in frequency as I accelerate more. It might have something to do with the cold temperatures we've been having as I first noticed this problem when it dropped down to -30C.
Any ideas?
Thank you.

Long story short, I have the car towed home, and still won't start, so I check the spark -- there is none. I checked two different plugs (each runs from a different...

Hello all,
I've got a 2002 Accent hatchback, and I'm finding that I've got a bit of a water leak in my hatchback.
I've tracked down the leak, and water seems to be seeping in over the top of the weatherstripping on the passenger side of the hatch where the slope of the hatch itself flattens out for the little 'bum flap' of the trunklid.
