hi guyz, just service my first 1000 elantra 1.8 yesterday. the funny parts the SA recommend to change coolant and i kena RM390. wow..instead if RM140.

another things he mention to me that make sure service accordingly to mileage stated. lets say next service is 10000, if you exceeded around  10399, the warranty will burst automatically in system. Wah LIOU...this is too much man.

Care to mention which SC you go?

During a routine service, a significant crack was found on the  engine overhead cam cover of my Elantra. This had led to oil engine leak. Fortunately this is covered under warranty. I was told it cost RM 500 plus.

I just done my 5K service, 299++. I change to Fully Sync and the SC told me, compulsory to add on 1 cleaning oil put into petrol. cost about 40. (This is new rule from Sime Daby) labour free. any one got this type of experiance?
*
Do they have any black n white regarding the new rule? BTW can tell which SC?
What brand of cleaning oil did they put into your petrol tank? I presume is fuel injector cleaning stuff....but your car is still new to benefit from using it.

For 40 bucks, I would rather pay for caltex techron concentrate plus, which is better than most brands out there...

has anyone changed to iridium spark plugs and K&N air filter when service?

How much did SC quote?

Your ride is 1.6 or 1.8?, 1.8 already comes with iridium plugs. As for 1.6, it came with standard copper plugs (LZKR6B-10E) 18855-10060.

The iridium version of the above standard plug is (SILZKR6B-10E) 18846-10060. It is used in latest Hyundai Accent and base Veloster in the US. Get from ebay..it's cheap. I got it like RM110.

Here some info on the plug....http://produto.mercadolivre.com.br/MLB-576223109-4-velas-ngk-laser-iridium-si-lzkr6b10e-hyundai-veloster-16-_JM

Do some research and pull the trigger on the iridium plugs....I did.


I doubt service center will change to iridium for you, even if they do, they would take the 1.8 plugs and sell it to you.(I think it's a little bit different in heat range and resistance). Last i heard is almost $200. Forget about it....


And those K&N filter thing? I give it a pass...

that's great to keep our car protected. unfortunately there is no sierra glow in JB, I had done mine 3 weeks ago in JB for 9H permanent Glass coating at RM1300 (should be much higher than sierra glow,but I think still worth the value), the result is very good, shinny, I had wash the car myself 3 times, it is really easy to wash and dry and still shinning, but just don't know how long it was last, the vendor give me 3 years warranty plus free 5 time car wash at their shop.

PM me where you did your glass coating?

I cant remember - one of the Korean brand, but it works very well. Some guy here wanted to change the spring - I dont think it is necessary, because the spring are ok, nothing wrong about it, it is the absorber that is supersoft.

If you read in north american forum - their stock absorber over there is also too soft, thus many change to Kayaba aftermarket.  I called local Kayaba dealer the other day but they told me they dont have full set of aborber for new elantra md model.  If they have i prefer kayaba.

I think you must be refering to this....

Elantrians. ....

Need some precious advise.... just had a bad accident....... a moment after that, towman non stop harassing with their own convincing words that im very confused now.... just had my car towed to park at my office at this moment...

A question is that ..... how do I check if this particular workshop are Hyundai authorised or if this workshop are using genuine Hyundai parts....?? I'm from Klang area....

As my car are just 1.5years old.... will it void my warranty after the repair...??
A bad experience....but it proves one thing. Elantra. .... are a very very very safe car.... got into sandwich front and back..... and during the collision from back, it's just felt like a slight bang..... but the car at the back ended up with a broken radiator and flat tyre.... really thanks god....
Thank you guys in advance

Peace man, you are all right. Did you sustain any injury? Air bag deploy that kind of thing?...Best if you could share us with some pictures to tell, that NCAP rating is not bull...

Hi Guys,

Any of you have replaced their MDPS coupler, the black plastic thingy.

Mine having slight knocking sound when the steering is changing direction, e.g reverse parking.

Can feel slight vibration and faint knock sound.

Anyone can share how much does SC charges?

Thanks

Recently service in Hyundai glenmarie and there's a guy calling from there saying my front brake pads are very thin and it cost 300 bucks for each side.
So I went outside and change but then I noticed my brake pads aren't thin at all.
So did Hyundai glenmarie just cheated me?

Hi guys, I just DIY change my 7 year old Elantra fuel filter, only clocking 78K. To my horror, the filter looks absolute black!!!

So, I think you should change the fuel filter at least at 50K. Not really sure when SC change fuel filter as I stop
servicing with them four years ago.

Hi bro,

How difficult was it to DIY? Where to source for the fuel filter and how much? Any reference for DIY?

Thanks

If you have some skills in car maintenance, I’d say this is pretty easy. I did this when the tank was low (one bar) to reduce risk. Petrol is quite dangerous and you need to bear that in your mind.

There is one youtube about this DIY on Elantra but I think the filter model a bit differ. Otherwise the steps are the same.



I bought this long time ago from SC because it was cheap that time (offer). You can get this from Lazada RM60-RM100

Good luck!

Thanks for the tip...i see how much SC charge me for the whole thing....then i decide...
