2011 Hyundai Accent issues, problems in general

[weisshorn]

OT: where can i buy crystal white car paint for my hyundai accent? Nagkaron kasi ng scratches nung nabump sya sa kahoy na may pako. Maliit lang pero malalim. I will just use it for patching those scratches. Thanks!

Oh,, really?? Well.. I used this for minor scratches and it works.

Baka hindi tama ang application. Maliwanag sa instruction na para lang ito sa scratches na as deep as the top clear coat. Kung malalim ang scratch na abot ang base color or metal hindi na pwede, pwede nya ma fill-up ang lalim ng scratch sa paulit-ulit na application pero hindi ma restore ang color kasi clear nga ito.

[QUOTE=meikey;1865105]WITH KNOCK [format: handle/displacement/transmission/month&year purchased]
1. Bratski/1.4 a/t/ May 2011- knocking since 2 weeks after purchase until Oct 2011 when i had an ecu update
2. Mexophilia/1.4 a/t/ April 2011 - knocking on the 12th day after purchase (hindi lang bothersome kse naka V-Power)
3. Tano_2/1.4 A/T / Nov 2011 - Faint knocking sound sa engine pag bagong start pero pagmainit na ang engine wala na.

WITHOUT KNOCK [format: handle/displacement/transmission/month&year purchased]
1. erj22 / 1.4L / MT / Sept 2011 (with slight power delay, but not bothering)
2. andretti / 1.4L / MT / Apr.2011 (no issues - lakas nga hatak)
3. Bratski /1.4 a/t/ May 2011- no knocking whatsoever from Oct 2011 to present, but suffers from extreme low power and unresponsiveness of the engine specially at low rpms. Almost got involved in an accident because of this
4.voltey09 / 1.4L / MT / Nov 2011 (no issues - malakas ang hatak more than 2k na tinakbo and loving it. )
5. meikey / 1.4L / AT / April 2011 (Issues: Fuel Pump replacement due to frequent hard starting, but very satisfied owner indeed)
6 callmenadz / 1.4L / AT / June 2011 ( may knocking ata unit ko ey? not sure minsan nakakarinig ako nang krug krug sa low rpm pero ignore ko lang di ko alam ey. saka one time natanga yung pag shishift nang gear ko parang nagtatlo yung isip nya from first gear to second gear di agad pumasok like 3sec. share lang po. pero over all very satisfied owner po ako nang accent lakas humatak ey for a .14 engine ) :D

ayaw ma edit nang post ko mali ako nang napaglagyan. kainis T_T

[bratski]

* callmenadz,
Welcome to the club, engine knock nga yang naririnig mo at low rpm. And parehas pa tayo ng problema sa transmission. 1st to 2nd gear minsan may delay ang shifting, parang sliding clutch tapos pag bilang nag decide ang transmission ipasok na sa segunda.... Boom para kang sinipa sa likod. Pag magaan lang apak mo sa accelerator hindi gaano malakas ang sipa, pero pag napadiin apak mo at tinopak ang segunda, nako lakas ng hampas niyan.

[renzo_d10]

Hirap niyan kasi pwede magcause pa ng aksidente

mali pala. i read my post again. bali eto yun senario naka 2nd gear 20-30km sya tapos bigla kong inapakan yung gas pedal bigla syang nag shift to first gear then inangatan ko nang onti tapos step ulet sa gas nang madiin angat tapos step ulet sa gas. kase nag alangan ako sa nilulusutan ko medyo malapit na kase yung kasalubong ko. kaya sya nahilo 2-3 sec bago pumasok yung gear. parang biglang nag neutral ganian yung first experience ko. pero so far wala na.

crug crug crug ganian po yung sounds minsan ko lang naririnig. parang nagugutom na kumakalam yung sikmura. ganon ba yun sounds nang engine knock?

share lang po :D

Question mga Hyundai and car owners.


May popping then juddering sound ba ang ABS kapag nag hard brake ka? Bigla kasing kinailangan ako mag hard brake kanina and first time ko ito naramdaman. I also tried this kanina ng mga ilang beses pero ganun palagi ang nangyayari kapag hard braking, is this normal? First time kse with a car na may ABS.

Yung crug crug na parang kumakalam ang sikmura or may marbles sa makina engine knocking po yan. And yung experience nyo about gear shifting between first and second na nag neutral muna ng 2-3 seconds tapos shift sa segunda ganyan din experience ko sa accent ko. Pero hindi madalas mangyari. Intermittent lang kungbaga, ang masama nyan pag umatake at the wrong time and place possible na ma aksidente ka.
Eto pa isang observation ko, nung may knocking engine madalas mag manifest itong neutral syndrome ng transmission. Then nung update ng ecu na no knocking but low power, miraculously nawala din itong nag neutral before 2nd gear. Ngayong inupdate uli ecu ko bumalik ang dating power ,knocking at neutral syndrome.

Ano na balita sa unit mo sir mexo? Yung akin duda ko pinalitan ecu secretly pero ang sabi sa akin ecu update daw. Balik na kasi knocking eh.

Yung juddering sound normal yun sa abs. At yung popping sa pedal normal din. It means your abs is working. Ang abs kasi nag activate lang pag hard braking. Ang function niya is to apply and release the brakes at very fast pace. Parang lumalaban yung brake pedal para hindi mag lock up ang brakes mo. Sa cars without abs ang practice dati ng drivers is to pump the brake pedal on emergency braking to prevent lock up. Pag may abs ka you dont need to pump, the abs system will do the pumping for you

Yes Bro. Yan ang feature ng ABS (Anti-lock Breaking System) para di maglock ang streering wheel mo para pwede mo pang mag maneuver o i umiwas kung me mababangga ka sa harapan mo. Ung juddering sound eh normal yan kasi ung sensor nagbibigay ng pulses ng magbreak cya. Kaya hindi advisable na lagi kang nakatutuk sa likod dapat meron kang safe distance para pwede ka pang umiwas. Ganyan kalimitan ang nangyayari sa mga taxi driver na walang alam sa ABS system, lagi silang nakatutok kaya hayun pag nagbrake sapol ang nasa unahan nila.

[mr.brightside]

ganito rin ba 10kpms nyo?

[toiboi]

ganito rin ba 10kpms nyo?

sa akin 50% lang ng cost ng 10k pms mo sir (hyundai north). semi synth lang yung oil.

[mr.brightside]

mas mapapamahal ako kapag nag semi syntetic kasi nxt 15kpms change oil ulit. Sabi sakin pagfully ako ng 10kpms sa 15kpms ko 4.5k nlng babayaran ko wala na raw change oil. Kaya fully ako.

Sa 10k pms dami na papalitan pyesa! amahal!!! Si erpat naman nagbayad )

[makro]

Guys, na experience nyo na ba na may pumapasok na amoy (usok ng jeep) sa loob ng accent nyo. Di ko rin sure if galing sa (tranny,engine,etc) door closed

na experience ko din yan sir pero seldom lang kaya di ko masabi kung san nanggagaling. ginagawa ko ino off-on ko yung air circulation bka kasi di nakalapat mabuti yung flap or bka may nakalang na dumi sa labi ng flap.

So far Sir Bratski ok naman. At least no low-power issue. May bagong ingay lang, nag squea-squeak ang belts pero kapag birit na may load ng aircon, and just for half a second. So kinukulit na ako ni misis sa pag pa check nito. Hahahaha. Anyway, ito yung mga things na pwedeng lunukin wag lang low power.

Hakahaka lang Sir, baka nga pinaltan ng ECU yan, pinalalabas lang na update kse malamang lahat ng nagrereklamo sa kanila ngayon are demanding for an ECU replacement. I think na they're just preventing na lahat magdemand ng ECU eh mukhang lahat ng new Accent sold sa market ay na-update na so malamang low-power. Kapag namulat ang mga yan paano na? Palit lahat?.

BTW, just talked to an officemate na kasama sa HONDA tuning club. Pwede naman daw talaga i-revert to the old setting ang ECU, it's just like "saving as" the old setting to a new file na naka version 3. Either wala lang capasidad ang Hyundai dito or takot lang sila kumalikot dahil isa yan sa mandated na wag pakialaman.


Eto nalang masasabi ko:

Don't buy a HyunDAY.



Go for HONDA, FORD, TOYOTA, or even a MAZDA.



Hyundai lahat ng line-up may sakit!

[mexophilia]

Sir*Toiboi and *Makro, nireklamo ko narin yan. And explanation nila sakin is that kapag umaabot sa 5k ang rpm, automatically nag o-open ang vent sa harap for some purpose daw. Ito yung reason na parang may sunog o usok kang naaamoy. I believe it naman kse pag humahataw ako nasa sports mode ang tranny at intentionally pinasasagad ko to 6k ang rpm before shifting, doon naaamoy ko na sya. Pero kapag kalma driving walang ammoy usok. Nung time din na nag lo-low power ako noon panay ang birit ko para lang makahabol, during that time laging amoy usok o fainted sunog na goma.

Para sa hindi pa nakakabili ng Hyundai:
Don't buy a HyunDAY.



Go for HONDA, FORD, TOYOTA, or even a MAZDA.



Hyundai lahat ng line-up may sakit!

Hi mexophilia,

I'm sorry that things don't work out for you at the moment. I am in no way affiliated with Hyundai and I know that everyone is entitled to their own opinion but brand bashing on a public forum has its own place. Please exercise proper netiquette. If you want to go on a crusade against Hyundai please do so in a proper venue. Take your concern to DTI or the media for all I care. This community would like to share their experiences whether good or bad and come up with a possible solution for existing problems. What you are doing, sir, is childish.
