I have to replace the first O2 sensor in my 2005 Elantra GLS (Manufactured Sept 2004 if that made a difference). I'm trying to find out the correct aftermarket part and i think it's supposed to be a Bosch 17014 (that the LSU4.2 wide band sensor) but everywhere says it's a 4-wire (autozone, advanced auto parts, napa, and even bosch) but looking under the hood the sensor is definitely a...

I just took my 2001 Hyanduai Elantra into the local Hydaui Dealer this morning
and got a tune up done. They replaced the plugs and wires. About 10 minutes
after I got the car back this Saturday afternoon and about 20 minutes after the
Dealer Service area closed the Battery Warning light and Brake Warning light
came on while I was driving. I was pretty far away from my home so I...

First of all let me say that we have (2) 2002 Hyundai Elantra VEs (Cdn models) that have been dealer maintained since new.
Recently, one of the vehicles, had a small leak in one of the feeder lines and it was replaced. Three days later (had to be a Sunday) the wife took that car and went on a short trip to her mothers. When she had almost reached her destination, when turning a corner, had...

Because existing sources of auto reliability information left much to be desired, in late 2005 I started conducting my own reliability research at . TrueDelta reports absolute stats like "trips to the shop" that make the differences between cars much clearer. Results are updated four times a year, so any significant changes in a model's reliability become apparent quickly.

OK, so i decided to change my timing belt on my 02 Elantra GLS this past weekend as I am at 94,000 miles and had never changed any of the accessory belts let alone the timing belt. I decided I would change all three accessory belts (Power Steering, Air Conditioning and water/Alternator), the timing belt, the timing belt tensioner, and the water pump if I was going to have everything apart anyway....

Hey folks,

My AC just died on my 2002 Elantra. Not sure what happened, but here's what I know.
- The AC light does go on in the car
- there is no 'sound' in the engine that the AC is working (ie. the fan in the engine that normally you can hear when you turn on the ac)
- the fuses *seem* to be ok

Called my local Hundai dealership and they are...

hi. i had some leaking coolant and was told to replace my radiator, which we did.

but it was actually a cracked thermostat housing, so we replaced that and all is fine. (by the way... reb162... your timing belt change photos helped- thanks )

so now i have an extra radiator, in good condition, which i need to sell... and i wonder if any of you know if the radiator which...

so i went to put on a intake on my 02. once i got everything on the car i though it would speed my car up a lil. it sounded nicer but it seemed like my car went slower. any ideas in what would make my car go slower? or what i should change on my set up?

hi all,

Trying to help my younger brother with a remove/replace on fuel injectors. His 2001 Elantra died on the road yesterday, and he and my father are 45 minutes away, trying to fix it.

They were able to remove the fuel rail and injector assembly without difficulty, but seem to be experiencing a lot of difficulty replacing the injectors. I seem to recall from working on my...

Recently, I've discovered two problems with my Elantra:

1. Even when the keys have been taken out of the ignition, the taillights will not turn off. I've had to disconnect the battery every time I park for the last few days.

2. When I run the AC the dashboard heats to an unbelievable level, enough to seriously burn your hand. When the AC is turned off, the temperature...

Within the last 2 weeks I have had an increasingly irritating issue with the front drivers side wheel/tire. It started out as just a squeaky sound when accelerating, only on that side, then progressively started to get worse. Now it's to the point where only on that 1 wheel it sounds like this horrible grinding, whether I'm breaking or not. When I'm driving (not breaking) it...

I have a 2002 Elantra GLS that has been acting up lately. About 6 weeks ago the check engine light came on after the car started having slight engine problems. At a stop light when you would start to drive the engine would hesitate to a second or two and not rev, but would then go back to normal and rev just fine. This would only happen a few times a week. Lately it has been doing it a bit more,...

hey what kind of gas mileage should you be getting on a 2004 elantra gls (auto)??
I'm only getting about 15-20 through town any ideas of what could be causing that???

Just got dinged $275 to replace my TPS on my 2002 Elantra. I had read up on the TPS here and knew it was a common problem. The dealer charged me $250 to replace it (inc parts and service).

Feeling ripped off since I have heard it is a $25 part after I got the work done. Here's hoping this fixes my high revving from time to time and I get some guarntee on the...

Just purchased a 2005 elantra & the manual says that when you arm the alarm with the transmitter, you can use transmitter or a key to unarm. Whenever I unlock with the key, the alarm goes off. Am I doing something wrong here??

Any advantage or disadvantage of using 89 octane as opposed to 87 octane fuel for the 2006 Elantra ?

This is a little off topic and I am not even sure if I am allowed to post the following message or not.I wanted to post a message at elantraxd.com and I got a warning from McAfee Site Advisor that that site may cause a breach of browser security "In their tests this site attempted...

When ever I go over a bumpy road the back end of my car sounds like something is loose but I can't see anything wrong also the noise stops after about 35 miles and hour. The two shops I've taken my car to say nothing is wrong. I tell them you can't hear anything if you go over 35 but I doubt they are test driving my car under that speed. So have any of you experienced this before?

Well on my way home from work turning onto my street, the wheel pulls hard to the right and i had to use some Force Correct it.
then i proceed to make a u-turn this is when i hear this Grinding / Weird Clicking Nose coming from the Front of the car. I am not to sure what the heck is wrong.
.
any ideas? other then not drive the car.


Thanks David

Hi,

Im having trouble with Hyundai Elantra 2005 roughly 35K. Im out of town by 7 hrs and the only 2 car places in town are still having trouble.

My car died last week completely dead - so i got a new battery. The car was fine to start the next morning but 5hrs later was completely dead again.

They then checked the alternator said it was at 14.11v. I took it down...

[FONT=Times][SIZE=1][COLOR=blue] Hello! My girlfriend has an Elantra (G3) and she's been having some issues with the sunroof. Most notably, the sunroof does not completely seal shut on the drivers side (back corner) and remains tilted in toward the interior when closed. Additionally, if she tries to just pop the rear up (keeping the majority of the window closed), the driver side does...

I have an 01 Elantra GLS and i have been going through headlights like no other. I just replaced both of them not even 3 months ago and about 3 weeks or so ago the passenger side headlight went out once again. Then right after the headlight went out the passenger side blinker started blinking really fast. And now my alarm on the car starts going off randomly at any given time. I was just wondering...

I would first like to say hello to everyone here, as I am a new owner of a 2003 Hyundai Elantra GLS with 85,000 miles. Great car! Runs smooth and the A/C is great.

I used to have a 1990 Ford Probe and I know vehicles very well (I had to learn how cars work, Im not rich and I was working on the Probe at least every other weekend. I frequented a Probe www site)

But this...

I have a 05 Elantra with a auto trans, can anyone tell me what the RPM should be reading at 60 MPH.




Thanks,

The girlfriend somehow got a hole in the front of her oil pan (she has no clue how default/unsure.gif' 'unsure.gif' /> ) so looks like I'll be replacing it this weekend, but I've got a few questions.

Can the engine stay in the car to do this?

Here's a questions for you...

I'm changing my brakes and just finished the rear shoes/drums today. I'm planning to tackle the front discs tomorrow after I pick up a breaker bar and some more PB blaster for the carrier bolts. Anyways, after I changed the back shoes and drums, I still have a lot of give on the brake pedal before the car starts stopping. I have very little...

Hi Folks,

Just brought my baby in for a safety and emissions and guess what? Front brakes are fine but rear brakes are almost non existent. I should have paid more attention because of the dust always on my rear rims. It only has 37,000 miles and I don't brake hard. Also the rear passenger side brake is thinner than the drivers side brake. Does this mean I have to adjust the bias...

i going to relace the timing belt on my 2001 elantra, where can i get some good info on it, im replacing all the other belts, this sunday, but i am going to wait until i have a full weekend off to do the timing belt, the dealership (not the one where i bought the car i just bought it a month ago) wants to charge me 400 bucks to do it, so i figure it would save me money, any help would be...

Check engine light came on today after what seemed like the car was stuck in 2nd gear. Took it to Autozone and registered a P715 and P1529 error code. It's at Hyundai now for an $85 diagnostic fee. From what I've read on here, seems like a common problem? My car is an 01, 106k miles. Just replaced plugs the other day and wires about 6 mos ago.

Has anyone had the...

Morning Everyone,

I currently drive a 2003 Hyundai Elantra and I'm quite happy with it. It's been a good little car. Recently the seat adjuster on the driver’s seat (round little knob you turn to raise and lower the front portion of the seat) has broken. Now to be clear, the knob isn't broken. But rather underneath the seat the crescent shaped gear has broken loose from the...

Hello, first post default/' '' />
I am changing the tranny fluid in my 2001 elantra automatic. What do you guys do, buy the hyundai atf at the dealer or go with amsoil atf synthetic? If you do use hyundai atf do you buy it at the dealer or is there a better option?

I have a 2004 Elantra GT with 67,000 and on my manual it says I should of changed my fuel filer at 50,000 miles. This is a pretty big job, considering I have to take off the back seat and unscrew it from the gas tank. Has anyone else done this?

The problem is that, my car is reving at a higher rpm and then it stalls. I'm thinking its the fuel filter, fuel injectors, or something...

Hello I am new to the forum and have a question about the rear rightside brake. My wife started to notice a slight grinding noise coming from that area. I immeadiatly thought it was the brake. but should the brakes be worn now? it only has 26000 miles on it. any feedback would be appreciated.

I have an 8 year-old 2001 Hyundai Elantra GLS with about 85000 miles. The Malfunction Indicator Light comes and stay on and the car vibrates a lot more than usual when idle. Also, the car has trouble accelerating. This problem just cropped up today. I had a oil change recently and had the rear wheel cylinders changed about a month ago. Any idea what could be causing this?

I have a 2003 Elantra, 2.0l. Will soon be tackling a timing belt change. Can anyone tell me the size of the crankshaft pulley bolt. Thanks, David

Hi All, I am getting an "Error 4" whenever I put a cd in my player. I have a factory fitted standard Radio/CD player that comes with the '04 Elantra here in Australia. Can someone tell me what the error actually is? i.e servo, feeder etc.. or direct me to where I can fix it. any serious help is appreciated.

gday , im looking at changing my rims and tyres on my car as they are stock. Atm they are stock 14's . Has anyone changed the rim size on a 2002 elantra hatch , if so what sizes have you gone up to without any problems of them scraping on gaurds ect...

thanks

The main problem that I am having is that my 2001 Elantra will stutter on acceleration. I have had this prob for a little while now, but it wasn't bad. Now, for the last two days it will stutter bad. It not only does it on acceleration, but also during normal driving and the CEL is ON. I pulled codes P0300, P0301, P0304 with my scanner. I did a look up in my Haynes repair manual, and it gave...

Newbie here

My 02 has been making noise that comes from the front driver's side, since Thanksgiving. It sounds like a tire rubbing. I have rotated the tires, changed the brakes and still the noise is still there.

The noise only occurs while driving and is the loudest at 60mph. The noise gets louder when the road curves to the left and quieter when I it curves to the...

Hi there, i was wondering if anyone would be of some help. I purchased some wiper replacements at wal-mart for my car. Unfortunately i cannot figure out for the life of me how to remove the one's on the car? The one on the car, i push the button in but it's not like it will just pop off. I can't figure it out lol... I'm not super handy like that, so here i am asking...

Somewhere in the last few days of hunting I found a post that described my problem perfectly. I have a manual transmission. I get no spark at all on occassion. I have to push the car. My present mechanic doesn't have much experience with Hyndais.

The post I read said there was a censor under the clutch pedal that needed replaced. He was talking about Lantra so I assume...

Hi,
My girlfriend has a 2002 Elantra that has a peculiar problem. She frequently has to travel out of town for work, and leaves her car in the driveway. After 2 days or so, her headlights turn on for no reason. It's not necessarily in low light conditions, either. I know she usually sets the headlights to 'auto'...not sure if that's the problem or not. But, by the time...

at speeds above 50 mph, front end vibrates under load. once a cruising speed is obtained car is smooth, but any accelleration produces a pronounced vibration. any thoughts?

The car manual for my 2003 gt Elantra says use only iridium NGK plugs. When I changed the plugs and wires the old plugs were just standard copper core Champion plugs. My question has anyone else used the much cheaper plugs in their own Cali spec Elantra. Unless I'm missing something I think I payed 5x more for nothing.

Also
1 I have 2 catalytic converters so yes I do have a...

i recently replaced timing belt on 2005 elantra and have a repair manual for that vehicle. is the engine in the 2003 the same? i need to replace the timnig belt in a 2003 and assume components and procedure are the same.

Hi I'm Kalvin from Malaysia.

Had been sent over to Hyundai Workshop, but they still can't find the problems. They had ben change OD(something like a nut with 2 pin) from the...

i replaced the radiator to the car because the old one cracked at the top. the car still over heats after driving a few miles. could the water pump be the problem or is it the thermostat.
