Guys, anyone facing starter issue? Mine just 6 months and started to have difficulty on start my car. When off engine, my starter got "Dak" "Dak" "dak" sound.

Any idea?

i just updated the latest price list but seemed like not much of a diff.
The 1.6 HS seemed to be 98K still and some mentioned they are giving 3K discount.

Excerpt from other countries owner comments:

"Mine does the same and the Hyundai technician who checked it owns an Elantra GT as well. He told me it's completely normal and said it's the car's main relay cutting off power to transmission selenoids and such. Nothing to worry about."

"I have the same noise. I brought it back to the dealer last Monday and they compared it to other Elantras. I was told that the sound is the throttle body resetting, and something about the emissions system. You're not alone. I think it's normal."

So to your answer, the sound is the mechanism inside engine bay spinning down, shutting off, park. Mine does that too.

If you hear other noise then the 3 "tak", then you need to check.

What i read from the user manual is for first 1000km:

1) Dont drive at constant speed.
2)Dont race the engine
3) Dont let engine idle for more than 3 minute

I try follow all... But in kl traffic jam, we can idle for more than 5 minutes, LOL!

Imo, the elantra might be increase price for facelift model... As all can see the stupid kosong altis car gonna launch... 114k for kosong spec 1.8... LOL! Our elantra are comparable to their 2.0v range which sell at 136k!!!

Seriously, UMW is the culprit here and i would never go to them anymore... Now am superb happy with my elantra...

By the way, my 1.6 elantra is 1 week old, fc is 11l/100km for 75% city, 25% highway.. Is it normal? I think its quite high er...

I didn't saw what happened only heard cerita only 

Thanks for your reply!

For headlight, i have already turned off the headlamp delay. Also, currently i'm not using the auto-headlight - i prefer to turn it on manually. So i'm wondering whether the headlight will be off automatically after a while when the engine is off (while the headlight is manually turned to on).

Hi guys,

Just got my 1.8 car last week  and already done 1st service. Just wondering about few things here;

1. Is it the tyre (Conti MC5) is noisy? because the tyre is more noisy than the engine.
2. Any effect when add Blue Chem for engine cleaning as recommend/optional from SC?
3. Have anyone of you experience the seat belt make contact and noise with the car body when not use especially at uneven road surface?
4. My radio signal is not so clear when the car is moving. But what I ask from one of the Elantra owner, my HU are the revised one, so should no problem as theirs.

Overall, the car is good for me. Smooth engine, good FC I think..Highway driving can get 700++km with full tank and 500++km for city driving.
   

Go n install rear anti roll bar n front strut bar then u will enjoy your drive n forget about the roll n bounce, secondly change your tyre to michelin primacy 3st then u will start complaining some rattle noise becos too quiet from outside

I cant really remember, becos the very first day i took my car i straight away went to tyre shop n trade in. I paid RM460 for 4 pcs after trade in.

Bro, my tok tok sound come from the gear lever side. Each time u press brake the sound is there. Not only at P at N or D also got this tok tok sound.

all bros with 1.8 elantra, can i know the fuel consumption for this car? i have no time to see though whole forum post... i need to make decision that to buy elantra 1.8 or new altis 1.8e.....please help me on this...i really need a fuel save car......compare to my curent car(preve cfe)
