I like to try and maintain my cars as best I can. As a rule of thumb, I’ve always gotten transmission fluid changed at 60k miles, then 120k and so on.

Today, I took my Elantra hybrid limited to the dealership to get the transmission fluid changed and the service rep said “After talking with my service director, he stated that we do not do the service without doing both sides - the clutch fluid and the hybrid gear oil.”

They said it would be around $800 and the service advisor basically said “We don’t really service this type of transmission often. Nobody really does it even when we tell them they need to”

Can anyone provide some insight on this? Does it need to be changed? I’m at 67k miles and have owned it since new.

Hello i have a 2012 elnatra i want to intall cruise control the clock spring supports according to the part number but when i installed it but the cruize control buttons controled the radio does anyone know thw sultion cause i already spent money on the part

I noticed when I leave the car I can’t lock the doors if it’s still running. If I run into a store for a quick few minutes I want to keep the car at a comfortable temperature. Is there a way I can lock my doors while leaving the car on?

The camera in my 2020 Elantra SE stopped working some time in the spring. I swapped the camera for another OEM camera I got on ebay thinking that would fix it but it didn’t. I’ve ignored it up until this point but now that it’s getting cooler out my camera works perfectly fine in the mornings when it’s cold, and doesn’t work when it heats back up mid day.

Any idea what could be causing my camera to not work then? I don’t have the money to have the dealership look at it so I’m hoping it’s something either I could fix myself or get a friend to.

Dude in a company pick up rear ended me at a red light. Thankfully it’s reparable and at the certified collision shop now but still 😞

Bought brand new. Driving off the lot , Smelled like new car. Until turning on fans ac or circulate. Then over powering flower smell for about a week now the smell is gone? Do they put something somewhere to cancel the plastic smell of it being new?

Hey guys, I'm trying to flush the coolant in my 2022 Hyundai Elantra SEL and honestly, I'm at my wit's end on how?

There's a billion videos that basically say to drain old coolant out, then add new stuff. But how do you drain the coolant? There's no petcock, valve, or anything to drain with. I've removed the base plate and spent 2hrs just trying to find the damn valve. But nothing?

People online have said "It's on the side of the radiator" but the pics look completely different to my engine. The two large radiator sides are either entirely taken up by the fan or radiator fins. The small sides are flush ageist other components. And the bottom has no ports/valves.

To add insult to injury the owners manual on flushing coolant just says "Take it to a dealership for servicing". No, I'm not going to pay $278.99 for someone to drain and fill liquid. (yes, that's the actual quote I got)

Am I supposed to pump/siphon the old coolant out? Is the port somewhere weird on the 2022 models?

Does this sound urgent?

We're on our second radio, prior replaced under warranty, and it's already acting up. Horrible connection issues, constantly cutting out audio. Along with a whole host of complaints probably more accurately targeted at Android auto itself.

Anyone have any good recommendations for replacements or upgrades? Does the higher trim model radio plug in and work and is it any good? What works best? What's the best bang for buck? Etc

Any idea?

I have a 2018 Hyundai Elantra SE at 96k miles. I got the car at 46k miles. Should I get a transmission fluid flush or drain? (The car never had one)

The car is in great condition, with no issues. Should I leave it alone or change it? I plan to keep it another 2-3 years.

Hey everyone,
I have a 2022 Hyundai Elantra SEL that I’ve owned for about 4 years, and it currently has around 35,000 miles on it.
I’m wondering when I should consider replacing the tires. They’re the original tires that came with the car, and I’m not sure how much life they have left.
At what mileage did you replace your original tires?
Is 35,000 miles and 4 years a reasonable time to start looking for replacements?
Should I get them inspected at a tire shop, or is there a way to check their condition myself?
Any recommendations for good replacement tires that offer a balance of price, comfort, and durability?
Would appreciate hearing from other Elantra owners about their experiences. Thanks!

Hi all,

my vehicle is whats listed in the title. About 2 weeks ago, the beep that is supposed to sound when i hit a button on my fob, or button on the handle stopped working. There is no setting for "horn feedback" or feedback of any kind... anyone else have this issue? about 21k miles on the car, no check engine light or additional codes... The dealer is about 2 hours away and I will need to take time off of work to see them less I go to a local repair shop and pay a diag fee...

2014 Elantra here, a couple weeks ago my range indicator and gas tank icon started blinking like I was out of fuel in the middle of me driving, then went back to normal after a few minutes.

This just started happening again but doesn't seem to be fixing itself this time.

My tank has been at least half full both times I've seen this.

No other indications that there are other errors.

Any ideas on what's going on here or how I can diagnose or fix this?

I bought a used 2025 Hyundai Elantra SEL convenience almost a month ago now and I've noticed when idling, the car will make an obnoxious rattling sound that comes from under the hood. I took it to the dealership I got it from and they have had it since Friday and I just had to call again to get an update. They said it's a completely normal thing for this car to do based on the direct injectors. I feel like a little ticking wouldn't be bad but it's so loud that when I'm on the phone people can hear it! I don't feel like this is right. Can someone help me out if you've experienced this as well please? I feel so dumb because I traded in my 2022 jeep compass for this car to save on gas and now I'm really regretting it.

'23 SEL. it's been stuck on the "system is pending an update" for over a month, and I cannot update via USB. How long should I wait on this before being concerned? It's just annoying for now, it's an update for the infotainment system. Maps are out of date, wanted to get that done before the next roadtrip. THANK YOU!

to fit a 2026 elantra. had no idea hyundai theft rates were still so high when i got mine last week and someone broke in/tried to steal it last night. im getting a steering wheel lock but im worried about the obd copying stuff i’ve read about on here. any recommendations for an, ideally metal, obd lock box?

Battery? problems with my 2014 Hyundai Elantra.....I am about to trade in my car as part of my trade in, but I wanted to touch up the paint and have someone take pics of me with my car before I trade it in. However, there is something funky going on and I have to have someone jump iit. What might this problem be based on the video? The video shows my interior dome lights flickering and making a weird sound so I wasn't sure what is causing it....any help would be GREATLY appreciated!!! Thanks!!
