Yeap. Then you can't turn your steering.

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.

Tan Sri, apasal you not in the club anymore? Wanna tag you on topic leh...

Forgot to post here...
Happy Chinese New Year to all fellow owners

Yes, using TPMS from ATBS taiwan, come with ios support with Pioneer Appradio mode. Love it.

Mine is 1.6, doesn't come with touch screen HU. Moreover the compatible TPMS modules are expensive, you can check with flyaudio where they supply the stock 1.8 HU to SimeDarby motors. Lastly their sensor are internal type, cumbersome to install and maintain.

Hi, model of HU is AppRadio 2 (SPH-DA100). Imported from US around RM1700.
Bracket from Korea.
So far happy with it, glaring is minimal.

The TPMS kit about RM600 from taiwan.

Nope, aftermarket.

I did for mine, but my HU steering remote doesn't support that. So I mod it to a bluetooth remote.

You need to change the cable if you want to use the extra button, not sure if 1.8 HU will work with it.

If there are active ECO mode and HSDM is keeping quiet about it. They better go zhap lap soon. Ppl pay for these feature and they don't advertise it? Make sense? Example, the lil carpet hook is a "feature" to them when they release the 2013 model.

There are a few places and a few member did soundproofing (firewall, doors, floor, pillars...). One of the place they did it is EA Autoworks.
Wind noise from door or wiper? Road noise is mostly due to the tyre. Can consider wheel arch dampening. I did mine.

If yours is 2013 model, can consider remove the wind blade on the wiper.

Door wind noise can add rubber lining.

Stock absorber is Mando (Hyundai/ Kia logo) too.
The replacement probably have stiffer rating, or it's stiffer because it's new. After sometime, it might back to what it was. Don't put too much hope on the replacement, it might improve, but never 100% solve the issue.

Slowly ply with plastic tool, use WD40 spray to help melt the sticker. After remove, use car polish gently to remove the stain.


No, it won't work for 1.6.

So you tot adding the buttons will make your car magically gain cruise control function?
I've saw an electronic throttle controller that have cruise control function, that might be a better bet for you.

Sadly no for our case. Same no for idle stop-&-go, no for active eco, no for park assist.

Nice hatch. If launch here earlier than HE might have bought it. Sexy.


Salivating over it at Seoul.

Pardon me but the current Sonata 2.0L Nu Sports is listed at RM151.9k.
http://www.hyundai.com.my/ModelsSonataInfo.aspx

Even the lowest spec is RM137.9k.

Unless there are some crazy sales going on for 10-20k less. Then again, what are we complaining price tag with Hyundai Malaysia with? They sucks with that.

That SC is seriously got issue.

A lot of items are not needed. Replacing the spark plugs for 1.8 at 20k... speechless

If the owner asked to change all the parts, then he won't go and complaint expensive and switch to 3rd party service provider after that service. And don't care about warranty.
The receipt is posted by the 3rd party service provider at Kia Rio club, you can go take a look.
