I bought today a performance air filter but I didn't find the rest of kit to install it.

Hello. I just purchased a 2001 Accent GS and the 2 brake rear side break lights stay on while driving; but the window light comes on when it's supposed to pressing the break. Anyone have any ideas why the 2 would stay on and the 3rd one works normally? THanks.

Hi All,

I have recently bought a ViVA CRDi in India. i was just curious to know how much to expect in Mileage during the first 3000 KM. Has any one noticd any change in overall noise levels after the first 3000 KMs ? Thanks for the response..

The A/C comes on automatically when you turn the heater control to either defrost /floor or defrost. The handbook says you can turn the a/c off if you press the a/c button. Unfortunately this does not work and the a/c remains on under these conditions and this wastes gas! If the a/c comes on automatically then I would assume the a/c button should light up and mine does not. Can anyone verify...

hi all...
my car has been acting strangly for the past few days... its a 2001 accent 1.5gls.
it just accelerates itself while driving... and when i step on the cluth and brakes at traffic lights, the engines simply keeps on reving... i've had it check by the hyundai machanics here but they couldn't find anything wrong. so please, if anyone of you guys have any ideas? thanks...

I got a question.There's an advertisement where this guy is advertising this so called Tornado to increase horsepower and save gas.How is that possible?If I'm right when you increase HP your gas mileage drops.Am I right?So how do you increase HP and save gas?I want to know.I'm sorry I asked 3 question not one.LOL

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.

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.

My car died the other night. I was pulling up to a stop light, and when I put the clutch in it just died and would not start again. It was low and gas and freezing out, so I thought maybe there was some ice in the fuel.

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.

I was wondering if anyone could give me some info on how to change my rotors and break pads on my 2002 accent? I have a friend changing them for me and he has never worked on a Korean car before. He was curious if they are different from any other cars. He wants to know if he needs a special tool or special instructions to do it.
