Guys, any of you experience pressed remote key, or pressed door panel cant unlock elantra? I need to unlock with the key, then when door opened alarm (horn) will sound until i started the car it only stop. After that, the remote can function again.

recently i having this issue, usually during morning or evening when going work/going home. Seems like if the car parked more than 8 hours then i will have this issue.

Any idea what is wrong? My car battery is already 11 months old, i have 2 remotes but only one can use, both never replace battery since i bought my car in mid 2012.

Hi all,

I'm interested in considering Elantra as my FIRST car. I'm pretty open minded to Korean brands but my friends strongly discouraged me from getting one (not listening completely to them), because most of them have never owned one.

Can you all help me to sum up some of the major pros and cons of this model, apart from the "fish tail" issue? Also, give me some points to debunk myths on Hyundai cars 

Yes, replaced remote battery problem solved

Anybody can share what is the current best price for 1.8? What color is available?

Thanks.

Dear sifus, 

I have a 1.8 md year 2012.  I have been noticing that the air-conditioned is giving out some foul smell occasionally. This happens usually when the air-conditioned is set to a low temperature (18-21°) with high fan speed, after about 15 min or so, turn the fan speed down to the lowest speed. That is the moment when the smell comes out.

I have complained to SC many times but they say there is no problem. Also, I have never been able to simulate this at the SC. However they have changed the filter and during my recent service theyou serviced the air-cond.

Any things that would come to mind?
Thanks

where got sell sun shade for elantra, the side window shape are abnormal...

@laurateoh, any feedback on this? since you're our sales specialist, it'll be good if you have a feedback on this. I am also having this jerkiness issue when i brake towards coming to a standstill. you can feel it jerks quite moderately when it approaches a full stop.

someone mentioned a smell issue also when air con runs (mine happens really randomly, but yes the smell is foul), which i do experience also. has anyone rectified that?

i was also told by one of the SC in Melaka that Iridium spark plugs are not suitable for Elantra. Can someone tell me more?

can someone also tell me what's the latest price for Michelin PS3 for 16" rims? Hyundai Elantra 2016 btw.

Dear Elantra owners,

May i check if anyone has experienced jerky transmission during low rpm (1-2k) and low speed (20-40 kmh) e.g. slow traffic during jam? The jerk is subtle and something like transmission hesitation. The issue is irregular so it is very difficult to tell the SA. Sometimes, it happened early in the morning, sometimes when the engine is hot (1hr drive or more).

My elantra has been having this problem recently. Sent to Glenmarie few times but problem persists.

They changed spark plugs and tuned to factory but problem persists irregularly.

Appreciate your inputs on how to solve this. Thanks.

My son car is having the same problem like yours intermitten when slowing down the car to about 20-30kmph, feel like lowering gear n can feel the jerk n each time complain they just do the remap of TCU but last for few weeks n the problem come back. 2years old car n hopefully its not the gearbox problem.

Anyone got rejected to claim headlamp, where it would have vapor in it when engine is hot? Hyundai claim this is normal for Elantra????

Still within warranty period and I went to Tayjaya Melaka SC, basically I have been told that it is normal for few models and Elantra is one of them, unless it accumulates water, if its vapor it considers NORMAL to them.

Further been told by Hyundai that, another way is that I can change the headlamps myself and use for 1-2 months, if there is no vapor I can proceed to claim for warranty and Hyundai will reimburse me, in other words claiming vapor is really normal so you change also will have vapor. (Informed that instructions are from Korea)

Is there any elantra owner installed PU body kits to share your precious experience?

I have been looking for the body kit that i like for a while, but too bad it is only available in PU material.
( found a few acc shop that have abs material but its not the type i want)

My fren suggested me don't go for PU kits as it is heavy and tak tahan panas (paint surface cannot tahan might have different tone under sunlight)

Appreciate if someone can enlighten me on this

Thank you

Are you sure you can make it claimable, because I had made a claim and it's being rejected.

If you can really help the situation then it is ok for me to go over to glenmarie, mind PM your number.
Thanks

Hi all,

My elantra 2013, currently got heat issue, air cond not cool and fan not working when jam time.
Car is around 4 year and 8500km now.

Does warrantry still cover the part.
If change the fan around how muchi.

Thanks.

 

Low beam, H7. High beam H1.
Parking lights T10-T15.

Check first post for car collection checking.

anybody know what is the bulb used for 2013 elantra md main headlight?

Thanks for the reply.

Besides, any recommendations for changing the HU ?
My ori (crap) HU touchscreen is not very responsive and the screen is hardly to be seen under sunlight. especially when using the reverse camera.

Saw a lot of HU brands such as Pioneer, Kenwood, JBL etc but I dont really know which is better, the price differs much also.

I think my warranty for most of the parts already kaput kot... year 2013 de car

When is the new elantra launching. Are they bringing in 1.6 and 2.0 or only the the turbo version

Ya, neck long.

I don't think there will be only turbo version, higher chance there will be either 1.6 or 2.0 and without turbo version.
Best scenario of course 1.6 or 2.0 + 1.6 Turbo.

I am a bit worry on the active safety features for the elantra when it launch here. By looking at Taiwan Elantra that launched recently, not excitement but good thing they have diesel engine option but very low specs.

But then come to think about our weak currency, it's very hard to offer great package with great value, if 1.6 turbo sell at 130k, will you buy?

Own this beautiful bitch for 3 years, still loving her after all these yrs and 110k km!!  Even added a new Llumar tint for her b4 CNY.  But now something major problem surfacing!!
I afraid she just got the same problem as her sisters back in USA: Steering problem! (please read: http://www.businessinsider.com/r-hyundai-r...IR=T&r=US&IR=T)!

When turning the steering wheel, there is "click, click" sounds, especially during slow speeds.  Check with a local car shop (didn't go back to dealership due to out-of-warranty dispute) and was told this happened to many earlier Avante models, n some Elantra too!  Major repair and original parts are hard to get. 
Any recommendation of repair shop here in JB to deal with this matter?  Or any solution from others owners on this problem??

Hey Laura, regarding the HU: my Elantra is year 2016 model and same as the guy before me, I am also having hard time with my HU. I would like to change it, but when you mention void warranty for that part and related parts, what are these parts are we actually talking about?
If i come to Glenmarie for appointment to fix new HU, can do for me?

i'll pay a visit to Tag Jaya and see what they can do! At the moment, they will check and will see how to claim for a fix. thanks Laura!
