kamusta mga naka-dct dito. wala naman sana naka-encounter ng problem sa mga transmission niyo gaya dito Dangerous, Horrible DCT - Hyundai Forums : Hyundai Forum. i believe na parehas pa naman lahat ng models ng hyundai na naka-dct na.

I'm an Accent HB 7DCT owner and I have not had any problems so far (knock on wood). I would think any member here having similar DCT problems such as the one in the link you postedd would have laready started shouting about the problem here if there ever was. I for one, if i encounter any problem however small about my DCT, I would have already posted about it here. People more often post problems rather than praises. So far mine has been all good. in fact, i was an "automatic car snob" before but driving the DCT has changed my outlook on an "automatic". I have seen several other DCT owners here and I'm pretty sure they have no problems with their units too... otherwise they would have already posted here. I do hope such DCT problem never happen to me though. FIngers crossed.

so far sir di po nangyari saken yung ganyan or any sign of it. smooth na smooth pa rin ang acceleration at torque na parang nababaon ka sa upuan, been using it for 10 months with almost 20K Km.

Question sa mga naka manual : Hindi ba talaga equipped ng ABS ang MT version ng Accent hatch? Sa mga specs na nakikita ko wala sya, hindi pa ko nakakadaan ng dealership para tignan.

Yung 2013 models lang na M/T ang equipped with ABS and EBD. Heck, their steering wheels are also tilt-collapsible. Swerte nung mga nakabili nung introductory pa especially yung mga buyers ng A/T nung 858k pa lang siya and complete with 16" mags. Yung mga 2014 up na MT wala na and fixed pa ang steering column.

Thanks! Mahal na nga ng AT na accent.

2014 manual owner here.

Yep, wala sya ABS. 2013 yung may ABS.

Eto natatandaan ko kaibahan ng 2013 and 2014 models ng manual.

For 2014:
-projector headlight
-2din player
-dual airbag
-no ABS

^ Thanks sa input. How's the brake feel on the accent? Nagkaron na ba ng instance na hiniling mong meron ABS yan? Di pa ko nakapag drive ng korean turbo diesel. Si misis gagamit kung sakali kaso baka manibago sa hatak mag SUA sa garahe hehe

Wala pa naman instance na nagkaroon ako ng ganung pakiramdam, kahit drum brake yung likod nya and wala ABS (unlike 2013 models, all disc) malakas naman braking force nya. Sa korean diesel wala kang problema sa hatak. Malakas ang hatak at matipid talaga.

PS. I'm not an Korean fan, we also have Jap and American Car.

Good input. Still thinking if it will be worth it. She wouldn't drive more than 7 kms daily and the turbo might just be a liability in the long run. She's also not comfortable riding smallish cars in the highway so it wouldn't see highway travel unless I use it

mga sir ano pong recommended wiper blades para sa hatch natin? 10 months pa lang saken pangit na ang wipe may konting visible streaks sa ibang portion.

may advantage din ba yung pag angat ng wiper kung nakapark ka esp matinding sikat ng araw?

It does not look and feel smallish in the highway at all. And when she starts to reach highway speeds, the power feels like you're driving a bigger car. As for the turbo, as long as the owner is aware of the cool-down method especially when coming from the highway or going uphill in parking garages, it will last you the car's ownership life. Those complaints with the turbo started with taxis in the previous gen and your guess is as good as mine on how taxi drivers drive their units and their knowledge on diesels are only for natually aspirated mechanical indirect injected ones. The private owners whom I personally know did not have any issues with the turbo. Same with me, I sold my previous gen crdi at almost 70k kms. Its engine and turbo ran like it was during its lower mileage times. Correct approach on maintenance and usage lang.

My gripe about the current gen accent diesel (whether hatch or sedan) is the seat comfort at tbe back row since it's too upright for me and the seat is too low, like near the floorboard.

Thanks again for the input. Its true though, you don't hear much issues with the accent compared with hyundai's bigger cars. At least with the last generation

2. Cheaper supplier ng fog lamps please?
3. For fully synthetic oil users, any reviews ng gamit ninyo? Im due na for 20kms.
4. Still keeping your 16s OEM mags (2013 models)? PM me.

Salamat! Sorry I cant backread right now, browser tends to crash.

Welcome to Tsikot sir and congratulations on your Accent Hatch!

For answers on questions 1 and 2: ask our korean parts suppliers Goodgear, Seiring and Fronte.

question 3: I use Zic X7 10w40 fully synthetic oil. It's just a little over 1k for a 6L jug. I still change it every 5k kms. Very affordable oil pero maganda yung quality.

question 4: I just purchased 2nd hand 16" OEM mags for my hatch too. Medyo madalang yung nagbebenta nito. hehe

1. Also looking for OEM mudguards
2. Dito sa Batangas province, sa pagkakatanda ko eh around 3k yung foglamps ko pero yung switch nya eh hindi sa stalk switch ang kabit, may separate na switch
3. I used Total First Gold 5w30, and now Shell Helix Ultra Diesel 5w40. Mas gusto ko gamitin ang Shell.
4. Also looking for 16s OEM.

Salamat! Sige will Google na lang their contacts.

A lot of conversations here highly suggest nga Zic FS oil. Top of my list. And naku oo nga, bihira na raw nagbibitaw ng 2013 OEM mags, 16s na kasi.

Thanks, good luck sa atin. Wheels Inc. is selling 495/pc pero front lang and no installation. Yung set na for 2,500 ang talagang pangbenta nila (set).

Also tempted to use Shell service, 10% discount pa if SM Advantage holder (Kamias station).

RE: Mudguards, if your not that picky, brand conscious, try to order from ebay, i once ordered a set for about $10. It came from hongkong, had to wait 4weeks before i got the notice to pick it up from the post office.
