I have hyundai accent 2000 1.3 GLS with 85000km past.
I have two problems.
-First is that gasoline consumption is 12L on 100km city drive.
Engine is working so quiet,I changed gasoline filter, I always changed engine recommended oil. Why is gasoline consumption high?
-Second is that I have problem with transmission.
Sometimes everything is ok I drive car for 50km and there is no problem, but sometimes when I put from first gear to second gear transmission scratch, then also scratch when I put from second gear to third gear, I stop(engine is working) and drive again but problem with transmission is still there. Only when I stop and turn off the engine, then after 5 min. turn on again transmission is ok there is no problem. There is no importance if is machine cold or hot, or transmission is slow or fast, or I change gear on 2000rpm or 3000 rpm.
I changed recommended transmission oil but problem is still there, why?
Gasoline consumption influenced many thing such as your car and your driving style.
Use econo-driving style by not to accelerate rapidly, don't change your gear so often, keep on 2000-3000 rpm while driving and so more.
On transmssion scratch, I think your problem is about your clutch system, is your clutch plate or clutch housing still good?
you may checked this part first. On my opinion there is no significant different using beter grade oil.
Transmission, transmission problem
