Elantra premium or tucson are different class of tranportation. Depend on yr need. Ask yrself sedan or suv more practical for you. However better u buy sportage than tucson. Much2 more value for money.

However better u buy sportage than tucson. Much2 more value for money. Unfortunatly i can't. Can only buy cars from SD dealer e.g Hyundai, BMW, Ford. Will be working for SD soon, so they are giving me monthly allowances either to take a co. car or buy a new car.. since Hyundai is affordable (cheapest  ) i have to go for that... BTW ive already have a wira and a MPV.. so either a SUV or a sedan.. just for keeping This post has been edited by mirzan007: Jul 31 2012, 02:42 PM

QUOTE(l2k @ Jul 30 2012, 10:18 PM) Seems like you guys also experience coolant level become lower and need to refill with water ? Maybe I give my SC a call tomorrow to confirm if it is "normal", just to be cautious as still under warranty period. I used SC shell helix semi, since 5k need to do service again. It is wasteful to use fully. But I feel the engine oil is not good, 10W40 is a bit heavy, feel the throttle a bit sluggish before change. Plan to use own oil, still surveying which brand is good. Well i can suggest Chemlube, fully synthetic esther base oil http://www.chemlube.com.my/product.html. Been using this in my previous car and satisfied with it and will use this for my 10k oil change.

Sian...  o  My theory for the new car is there are some bubbles or vacum inside hose and radiator for the cooling system..that's why while engine getting hotter..the moving collant will fill the vacum one..so some drops will happen..once u fill some water to he max level, then no more drops inside the reservoir..just my theory because mine one no more drops  Added on July 31, 2012, 10:56 pmQUOTE(stevenycs @ Jul 31 2012, 09:48 PM) Wow~ seemed like u really enjoyed the ride bro Ya, as mentioned by devil666 both my rear tail light also got bubbles inside so claim from SC.

Waited for almost a month but no major issue   To bro stevenycs and devil666..please let me know..is the rear tail light (the outer side/the long one) also got the bubbles/small2 cracks (minor) to ur elantra?..because mine only complained the light which attached to the trunk only..and a week after the SC snaps some photo..the SC ask me to replace. I'm asking because also detected very minor hairy cracks at 2 or 3 points on the rear long lamp. This post has been edited by mdadnan: Jul 31 2012, 10:56 PM
