Up for auction is a 2004 Hyundai Elantra GT with 5-speed manual transmission. I am the first and only owner and have been using this vehicle for commuting. The car needs some new parts. I just bought the new 2013 Elantra GT and I am letting this car go.


The condition of the vehicle is very clean inside with minor blemishes to the interior plastic and leather upholstery (as shown in the pictures). There is some minor discolorations in the driver seat. There is an ink stain in the seat behind the driver's seat, courtesy of my daughter. There are stains on the carpeted florr mats though nothing too egregious. The car is equipped with a JVC CD / MP3 player with front auxillary input that can be used to connect an iPod/iPhone or the likes. The CD player also accepts a USB flash drive and can play MP3/VMW format files. Comes with the user manual and a remote as shown in the pictures. 

On the outside, the car has a great deal of scratches consistent with the age of the car. I tried to show the most important scratches in the pictures. There is a small depression on the back close to the rear hatch lock. The car has developed some rust at the bottom edge of the right rear stop light two years ago. I stripped the paint down to the bare metal, used a body filler to repair the rusty spots and re-painted the portion of the hatchback door around the plate. You can see that I did not do a perfect job with the body filler. There is a couple of spots showing a little rust here and there that needs fixing. Nothing big. A piece of the plastic covering the grille has broken off. 

Here are the items that need to be fixed / replaced:

1. All four wheels need to be replaced ASAP. There is not teeth left on the wheels. 
2. The flex pipe is leaking exhaust. The flex pipe needs to replaced. The entire flex pipe and the rear catalytic converted assembly is about $150 on eBay.

Issues:
1. The up/down switch for the driver side power window is intermittent. It sometimes take a couple of presses to operate the window. All other power windows/switches are fine.
2. The passenger side map light button does not stay pressed.
3. The cover for the front visor mirror is broken.
4. The rotary fan switch is intermittent at position 4. You need to keep it somewhere in between 3-4 to set the fan speed to 4. 
5. The steering wheel shakes at highway speeds past 65Miles. I am told that this is a balancing issue by a local mechanic. 
6. The part securing the passenger side fog light has rusted off. The fog light is out of its socket. The other fog light is cloudy.

Maintenance:

The car has been maintained well following the maintenance schedule provided with the owner's manual (included). Most of the maintenance is done by the original dealer that I bough the card from. I did some minor maintenance items in later years. 

1. Clutch has been replaced at 88K miles. The clutch is in pretty good shape at this point.
2. The radiator and all hoses has been replaced at 112K miles.
3. The timing belt has been replaced at 55K and 115K. The timing belt in this vehicle needs to be replaced at 60K intervals. So you need to replace the timing belt in 20K miles.
4. The alternator belt has been replaced very recently.
5. Front oxygen sensor has been replaced at 110Kmiles.
6. Brakes were replaced at 100Kmiles.

Next Hyundai Genesis confirmed for Detroit debut

Tue, 30 Apr 2013

Edmunds reports the 2015 Hyundai Genesis Sedan will bow at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show next January. As expected, the redesigned luxury four-door will reportedly offer buyers an all-wheel drive option for the first time as well as a more refined interior. The news that the Genesis will show up at Detroit comes courtesy of Brandon Ramirez, senior group manager of product planning with Hyundai Motor America, though the executive stopped short of serving up any more details.
Edmunds points to "other sources" as saying the Genesis will receive a styling update in the same vein as the automaker's other Fluidic Sculpture design products. That may mean we'll see hints of the HCD-14 Genesis Concept in the final product, though the influence is likely to be pretty subtle if the spy shots above are any indication. The new model will also take a stab at improving both the machine's ride and handling as Hyundai continues to attempt to lure buyers away from brands like BMW and Mercedes-Benz.

First 2014 Hyundai Equus shipment adrift in Pacific Ocean

Tue, 28 May 2013

To all you Hyundai dealers and customers eager to plunk your posteriors into the broad, leather-lined seats of the redesigned 2014 Equus, we have some bad news: Your ship hasn't come in - literally. According to USA Today, a Korean freighter with the first 61 examples of the luxury sedan packed away in its belly has lost engine power in the western Pacific Ocean, and is adrift.
The ship, Morning Spruce, has apparently been without power for several days and is floating in the Sea of Okhotsk. It isn't clear when it will be repaired or reach US shores to divulge its contents. As a result of the wandering Spruce, Hyundai has reportedly had to reschedule some of its planned marketing efforts for the new model.
The 2014 Equus receives a suite of changes inside and out, including freshened styling, revamped center stack controls, a new instrument cluster and additional tech. Underneath, the rear-drive sedan gets a reworked suspension and a new sport mode to ease some of its nautical-by-nature handling. The 5.0-liter Tau V8 and eight-speed transmission - updates for 2012 - stay the course for 2014.

Hyundai Genesis says in the future, even car stunts will be autonomous

Wed, 02 Jul 2014

We talk a lot about new technologies in the auto industry. Things that will make you more comfortable or faster or more fuel efficient are, generally, easy for us to explain. Things that make us safer, though, are often a bit tougher to get a bead on. We can report on how it's supposed to function, but few of us are brave, reckless or stupid enough to purposefully put ourselves in a situation where we'd need something like Hyundai's Auto Emergency Braking.
That's why this video is so interesting. It shows off a vehicle's active safety features in the most ridiculous, easy-to-understand way possible. We won't spoil the lengths that Hyundai goes to with this squadron of cars, but you'll want to make sure you watch the whole three-minute video to see just how extreme the safety systems are on the 2015 Genesis.
Scroll down and have a look.
