QUOTE(face @ Jun 14 2016, 03:52 PM) hi guys i'm in dilemma .. i wanted to buy a 2nd hand elantra 1.8 .. but most of my friends are pouring cold water == saying it's a cold car .. no resales value and always spoil la bla bla bla.. can i get some enlightment here ? From the sound of things, most of your friends have chinaman thinkingJust tell them you can afford the poor re-sale value. Always spoil? What load of rubbish. I own the first batch 2011 model and I dont get any spoil. Fish tail problem yes, but that can be solved by installing an anti roll bar. Seriously, you should stay away from friends like them. Closed minded   This post has been edited by Jusstatic: Jun 14 2016, 04:50 PM |

QUOTE(misy80 @ Jun 14 2016, 05:56 PM) sorry, misunderstand... i am actually asking will it void warranty.. ☺ hmm i think it will. but i feel ridding the car of the fish tail problem is worth the absorber warranty risk for me. absorber hardly spoils unless you like to go fast over humps and hit potholes very frequently  This post has been edited by Jusstatic: Jun 15 2016, 11:17 PM |

QUOTE(pakutekan @ Jun 30 2016, 09:32 AM) Can i know, there is any major issue for this elantra? Transmission, engine, electrical etc? i have 2011 first batch 1.8. no issue thus far except for the fish tail problem which can be solved by adding in strut bars the newer batch be even better i reckon. if u r considering whether to buy an elantra or not, my advice, just do it This post has been edited by Jusstatic: Jun 30 2016, 12:16 PM |

QUOTE(chocobee_2707 @ Jun 30 2016, 01:05 PM) I do not have any major issue yet since Feb 2013. My complaint is the handling issue when hit speed bump or potholes. I dont know the correct term, but the cabin sway too much. that handling issue when hit bump or potholes is what i referred to as fish tail problem. can be eliminated or greatly reduced after install strut bars. those bars are not costlyI also having rattling sound from driver's door. Already been to 2 SC. But the issue still persist. |

QUOTE(ckweng @ Dec 23 2016, 09:30 AM) Hi all, nothing to debuke... just wish to say you have a bunch of chinaman "follow the crowd" friends 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   |
