how to install your door panal on elentra 2000

door lock does not lock passenger front door what is causing this

The passenger side front and rear window regulator's have both failed on my 2000 Elantra. I've done the research and know that they tend to fail. My question is does anyone have a good source for replacement parts?

Also, in all the times I've been in and out of the door, the plastic "vapor" barrier is pretty torn up. Should I replace that? If so can I use plastic...

G'day,
My '99 Lantra Sportswagon has started getting the check engine light come on my regular drive to and from work. usually in the morning, when it's cold (it's Winter in Australia) the light will come on after about 5-10 minutes of driving, and then stay on for the entire trip (about 25km - up to 75 minutes driving). In the afternoon, on the way home, the light will come...

So they left it so like 1 year later i feel like fixing it for them cause of summer vacation, Now the spark plugs or wires don't get electricity.

Hi all,

After searching this forum, I believe that the horrible squealing we've started getting when we start the car (and sometimes on full lock too) is to do with the belts needing tightening.

My girlfriend has just been working night-shift and I don't think she'd appreciate being woken (again) by the car screeching like a banshee so...

Before I go...

Hi guys, new to these forums and what i've read has been most informative....

My steering wheel has been getting heavy recently. I had the hydraulic fluid changed but this did not help much. Its heavy when correcting on a staright drive and funny enough its normal feel when making a complete turn. Does anyone know or have a similar problem?.

Hey guys,

I apologize ahead of time for the somewhat newbie style first post . I'm looking to pickup another car for the cold New England winter months and daily commute. I've previously had a Honda Accord and Nissan Sentra doing the same duty, both of which performed pretty well, only complaint was the maintenance on the Sentra was suprisingly pricey.

Just reinstalled a radio in my Hyundai Elantra. Before I did this, the AC was working fine and got cool almost immediately. Now the AC won't come on, I don't hear any changes in the engine noise as the car idles. Also, neither lights showing the AC is on and, I guess it's for air circulation, the circulation lights don't come on. I'm afraid maybe I did something to a wire, but...

First time poster here looking for any advise I can get. I need to replace my front calipers on my 97 Elantra. It was built in May 97' and every parts site says I need calipers that range from $90 to $150 each since it was built after March. From all the research I have done online (can't find anything here either) models after that date came with all disc brakes, but I still...

Greetings everyone,

All of the brake lights on my 1999 Hyundai Elantra are out.

I checked the fuses and bulbs and all appear to be OK.

I looked underneath the dash for the brake pedal switch, but could not see it and really have no idea how to test it.

Thanks in advance to all responses.

I've just got a 1997 Lantra and the fan heater does not blow. Does anyone have or know where I can get a wiring diagram. I know the heater itself is working just the fan does not blow. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Hello, I'm hoping that someone here can help me out...

I have a 2000 Hyundai Elantra with about 152,000 miles on it. A few weeks ago, my check engine light came on, but nothing happened and it ended up going away itself. About a week after that, it stalled at a stop, but turned back on. For awhile I have felt like the car was acting a little sluggish.

Last week the car...

How easy is it to replace an inside door handle on a 2000 Elantra GLS?

I have a 1998 Hyundai Elantra sedan with a 1.8 engine. I have just purchased Autolite platinum spark plugs. I want to check the gap. What should te gap be?

Starts fine in the morning or after its sat for a while, but after it's warmed up (a couple miles or so) it will stall when I stop for a light. So I push it to the side of the road and wait 30-45 minutes and it starts right up, but if I get on the freeway it will go for hours till I get off or hit traffic.

Could it be the CKP or maybe fuel pump... or?

I'm trying to replace my crank sensor and I can't unplug it from the harness... do you have to squeeze it or something?

Whenever I set my cruise control on my 2000 Elantra for a speed over about 71-72 mph, it surges and you can feel the gas pedal going up and down a good inch or two. It works very smoothly with almost no gas pedal movement any speed below 70, but anything over 70 surges noticeably. The surging is annoying enough I either cut it off or slow down to 70. It has been doing it ever since I bought the...

I have a 99 Lantra 1.6 which very occassionally won't start from cold; just goes on cranking. The only solution is to leave it for about half an hour or even until the next day and try again. I would say its only 1 in a hundred times but can be very inconvenient if its an important journey ! I met someone else recently who has the exact same problem on his Lantr 1.6 so it must be some...

Once every couple months (maybe 1 out of 40 starts), the car tries to start but it sounds like it's out of gas, even though I have a full tank. It cranks and cranks and cranks. I hold the key and let it crank for up to 2 minutes, and finally it starts.

It's not consistent or reproducible, so the dealer isn't much help. they did replace the fuel filter, but it still...

I drove more than 200 miles thru moutainous road. The road was paved but there were lots of up and down hills. Elantra didn't go well at the up hill. Since then, I noticed the engine ran rough first few minutes in the morning.

After 5 days later, I has to stop the car at the middle of a up hill and go then engine start shaking more. It was almost stop without pressing the gas...

I wanted to get new spark plugs for my 1999 Hyundai Elantra, but I'm not sure what would be the best brand.

Is there anything you all recommend for my car?

Hey, just wanna say that this site is awsome!

I was just wondering, whats the fastest anyone has had their Elantra going. I had mine up to 170km/hr, i was wondering if anyone has gone faster.

Hi, I am a new(used) Elantra owner. For "the first time in decades" the lot at my daughters flooded. Being the good mom I waded in to save the car. The water was "only" up to the console and only for the few minutes it took me to move the car. I took the car home and removed the seats and carpet. Originally the seatbelt bell dinged like crazy and the airbag light was on. After...

Hi!

I recently installed a rear O2 sensor as it was turning the check engine light on. Pulled a code on it and replaced it.

I have a 1996 Elantra Wagon. It turns over but won't start. I thought that it might have been the fuel filter but when it cranks over, I smell fuel. When I pulled one of the spark plug wires off and cranked the motor, there wasn't a spark. This led me to look around the ignition coil packs for a disconnected wire. Sure enough, I found one just dangling. I don't know if it even...

Hello all

I am a newbie in DIY on cars. I am trying to replace CV joints on my Elantra 2000. I have done it before on a Nissan Sentra.

The car is from the north and quite rusted.

On the driver side, I had some problem in breaking the hub nut loose. But eventually with rust eater and some heat to the nut, using a 32mm breaker and 3/4 breaker bar I was able to...

i have a 2000 automatic elantra that, as of last night, will not work unless i jump it every single time i have to start the car. i do not think it is the battery - that is fairly new (under a year) and i have had no problems at all. but i noticed that suddenly, after about five years, the red alarm light near the steering wheel has turned itself on. not blinking, just solid red. coincidence? ...

I own a 1997 Elantra and I am thinking about changing the timing belt. Is this a difficult process? Does the car need to be elevated or can it be done standing over the engine? What are the major steps involved?

Thank you

Its quite simple, my 96 Elantra starts up perfectly every time in the winter, yet in the summer my car starts fine in the morning but randomly does not start after the initial start. After it does this I ether keep trying to start it until I get lucky and it all the sudden fires up or I crank it until the battery runs out on me were I then break down crying, cursing and shouting at God and his...

So I have a 96 elantra and the clutch and transmission were just replaced. Now the clutch pedal will not depress at all and the car wouldn't start after this was done. Anyone have any idea what could be causing these two problems???

Last weekend after parking the car on my driveway, next day it wouldn't start. It would crank very strong but no start. Car has 172k miles on it. Anyway, I initially thought it was the fuel pump. I would swear that each time I would start the car, before it cranked over, I would hear a faint buzz-like sound of the fuel pump pressurizing. Because I no longer heard this I assumed fuel pump...
