Good afternoon members, i am interested in buying a second hand Hyundai Sonata ef. there are couple of questions i would like to ask and would appreciate your replies to my questions as it will help me a lot.

1. is it true the 2.0 is under powered?
2. besides the engine, what else is the difference between the 2.0 and 2.4?
3. to choose between 2.0 and 2.4 which would be a better pick?
4. how regular is the service interval? and is the spare parts expensive?
5. which workshop is recommended to send this car to? (i live in kl)
6. i heard the FC is very bad is it true? is there anyway to overcome it?
7. is there alot of body roll during cornering?

Thank you, sorry if the questions are not specific enough or if it sounds silly biggrin.gif , cause i dont know what to ask, as i have no knowledge about this car and i would like to buy this car.

do you know the engine used in this model?
for kimchi cars...i think the great improvement is from theta engine family onwards..

i owned a k5..so far love it and powerwise is decent  nod.gif 

1. 2.0 is decent for D segment cars...but again..not sure which engine used in this model
2. road tax price and fuel comsuption of cos! biggrin.gif
3. depends on your driving needs/style i assume..
4. service interval depends on the engine oil u use. 5k, 7k, 10k. there is not cheap spare parts for all imports car...
5. since there is no warranty..u can visit workshop outside...eg autosaver...
6. not sure about this engine
7. never drive this model b4
what is ur budget? go for sonata Sixth generation (YF)  thumbup.gif

my budget is 20k as im intending to get the car cash, the price of this car is relatively low to the spec. thats why i decided to get this car plus i had more confidence know that it is running on a mitsu engine.
