Mukhang very low ang clearance ng bottom natin. Kanina sa may konting incline ay may nag grind sa ilalim at may natanggal na rubber gasket cover of something. I have yet to find where it fell out of pag nai jack up ko na. Also the 3rd brake light ay prone to dust and insects getting in. Akala ko it's a sealed unit pero may nakita akong butiki (baby) and lots of mold like dirt inside. Doesn't help na humid dito satin. Sana di ma-void ang warranty ko pag binuksan ko ito..whew!

And, it was a very tiring weekend kakaalis ng water damage sa body especially sa glass and mirrors. My fault not to immediately wipe the car dry after washing with our brand of "NAWASA". Our municipal water is crap! and if left to dry, it will actually etch your glass or mirror. That's how strong it is. The thing left so much hard-to-remove water damage and I learned a valuable lesson in the process to wipe the car dry immediately after washing. I don't care if it's Evian natural spring water from the Alps or irrigation water, it must be wiped dry! immediately.

That is also crap to hear about a 2 month old car with a failing fan. I bet there are twenty plus year vehicles out there with nary a 'fan' problem.

I also bet that you have heard the word "isolated case"...hehehe joke lang sir.
Lets wait if this failing fan is common to all, before we make final judgement.

The rear speakers are already mounted on the rear doors. So there is no point in adding provisions for 6x9's at the rear deck.Besides, if you opt to replace your stock speakers, you will only replace the fronts. Many audiophiles upgrade only their front speakers for better sound quality and imaging. The rears only act as fillers.
Many cars dont have the auto up feature on the drivers side window, even cars costing twice or thrice more.

Thanks guys. I guess your right. But for the central lock, it comes standard for the A/T, im just wondering why there are times it doesnt lock on its own when I start my engine and drive. I read on the manual, it has ignition-controlled door locks. Have you guys encountered this?

It has an auto lock feature, but only when all doors are closed before you put the key in the ignition.after the engine starts, thats when it auto locks.it doesnt have a speed sensing doorlock though. For the doors to lock again, you have to switch off the ignition and then on again.

Thanks sir.
I think na figured out ko din, that you have to position the key to AC ON for 2-5 secs muna before turning it to ignition. Kasi pag straight ignition turn, there are chances na di sha nag lo-lock.

Need advice lang po, may cash na po ako pang 50% to 60% downpayment sa 1.4AT, but with this issues being encountered in 2011 Accent, would you still advice me get it now? or maybe wait for a few more months na baka yung mga new units wala na nitong mga issues na ito? First car kasi, Tempting na ibili ko na lang ng 2nd hand Mazda 3 or Ford Focus Hatch or other cars na pasok sa budget.

[bratski]

^at mukhang matatagalan pa bago maayos.

si sir maxhedrum po ata yun. em not sure also

[bratski]

si sir maxhedrum po ata yun. em not sure also

I think siya nga yun. Yung unit ko hindi naman ako naiirritate kahit very soft yung rear suspension. Ang nakakairrita yung knock. Kaya garahe muna si accent ko or probably once a week ko nalang muna gagamitin until ma solve ng hari ang issue

[mrouter]

hi guys!

when kaya magiging available door sill protector? found out ang dali pala magasgas, more so sa rear passenger side.

Hey guys, recently found this thread. But I bought the new Hyundai Accent months ago. I'm having problems with Fuel consumption and loss of power. Id rather use my gas fortuner than the accent in traffic.

Now, it is in Hyundai E.Rodriguez for further road testing for the nth time, 3rd time actually, since they do believe that 7kms/L is efficient for city driving.
I requested a highway test which they scheduled tomorrow. I will ask them to certify the results in paper. Hopefully, they could resolve the problems.

I also asked what action they would do. And said they will still ask the technical manager.
