Dropping a v6 engine in a Hyundai veloster?
I think it is a very dumb idea. I never heard of someone buying a brand new car and then removing the engine to replace with another, there's no logic there. If you want a fast V6...buy the Genesis coupe! If you want a faster Veloster, the turbo model will be out in a few month or buy the standard and have a turbo kit installed. Buying a V6 engine and trying to get it to mate properly is a terrible idea, you just voided the warranty on every part of the car. The amount of money it would cost could probably net you a loaded Genesis Coupe, why not check out the Mazdaspeed 3 if you want a powerful hatchback with backseat space?
How many miles can I expect from a hyundai engine?
Unfortunately today's engines are not built to last as long as the old ones did ( just like everything else these days). If the previous owner or owners kept up with oil changes and general maintenance of the engine, and didn't drive the heck out of it. You could be lucky enough to have it last you another 100,000 miles. Check out this site I found for you it's a place you ask the question of certified Hyundai mechanics and their answered ASAP... Good Luck!
What are the chances of Hyundai becoming a engine supplier in F1 in the near future?
It’s hard to say. Hyundai has been on an upward trend in the past decade or so. I remember Hyundais used to be below average cars, but now I’m impressed with what they’re putting out.That being said, it all depends. As you may already know, F1 is not a cheap sport whatsoever. But it’s also a great way to gain credibility in the sports car industry, which is a market Hyundai has been trying to tap into. Then again, they’d have to be at least somewhat successful to gain some credibility.I think it’d be interesting to see. With the regulation change coming in the next couple of years (intended to lower the cost of F1), I think the possibility is there. I haven’t done any real research on what Hyundai’s views about it are, but I’m giving an answer based on my former knowledge.
Hyundai Sonata - How do I reset the engine immobilizer?
I used a key instead of the wireless remote to unlock my car this morning. This caused the engine immobilizer to kick in, thus my car will not start. I've tried locking and unlocking the car with the keyless entry, with the key, various combinations, but I can not get it to reset. Anybody know the secret to fixing this? Its a 2005. Thanks!!
How are KIA cars compared to Hyundai?
To reiterate what others have said, KIA and Hyundai are similar. Here are some Hyundai features that KIA is lacking…High Value: In 2016 Hyundai won Best Value in America Awards. The research behind the reward looks at the automotive cost of ownership and a couple of Hyundai's models have taken the award a couple of years in a row.Better Fuel Efficiency: Hyundai puts emphasis on several of their models calling them the MPG leaders where all gas fueled models achieve anywhere from 32MPG to 44 MPG.Safety Awards: Six models earn the IIHS Top Safety Picks in the year 2016, alone. Looking toward the future, the Sonata, Santa Fe and Tucson earn the 2017 NHTSA 5-Star Overall Safety Ratings.Charity Programs: Bright Ideas, Being a Good Neighbor, Hyundai Hope on Wheels are the three main charities or programs that Hyundai is involved with from helping students learn to helping kids fight cancer.Source:Why Buy Hyundai?
Timing belt broke while driving. it's an 04 Hyundai Sonata. Is the car worthless?
All Hyundai engines are what are called 'interference' engines. This means that if the crank and cam are not kept in time (by the belt in this case) that the internal parts will interfere (hit) each other. With this type of an engine and at this age 9 times out of 10 the whole engine is scrap. Sometimes you can get a way with replacing valves but usually in addition to damaged valves there is damage to the piston and bearings so you will have a lot of labor invested in the heads and repair and still have possible issues with the rest of the engine so its not worth the risk for the cost savings. A rebuilt or even a used engine is usually a much better way to go if the rest of the car is still nice. Lesson here is if you have an interference engine, spend the money to get the timing belt changed when the owners manual says it should be changed. Typical interval is in the 60 to 100 thousand mile range.
What should I do with my car (2010 hyundai elantra)?
Hi everyone, I'm a 23 y/o Army veteran (joined when i was 17) just here to get some advice from some people who have nothing to gain. I'm now a young college student with very little knowledge about cars. Thanks in advance! I'm looking for advice on what kind of maintenance work or general preventive work I should do with my car to catch me up and set my car up for success over the next 2 years. Some background: The car is a 2010 hyundai elantra, I bought it new in Jan 2010, so it is exactly 3.5years old. Has 70,000 miles, The only thing I have ever had done on this car over that time is oil changes. I can now tell that I definitely will be needing some new tires soon, they are showing wear. Ive noticed my A/C hasn't been blowing cold, I bought the bottle with the air tube today that is supposed to make it colder and it worked! While I did that I noticed the coolant is pretty much completely out so I bought some anti-freeze and filled it up. Also, I think the transmission may be "slipping"... when my car is speeding up, it like jerks forward when the gears are changing (its an automatic). The guy at autozone said it was probably the transmission, but I should NOT have the fluid changed because it would make the problem WORSE. He said to just leave the fluid and have the filter replaced since I've never changed the tranny fluid. Good advice or is he silly? Also the check engine light is on and he ran it with the machine and said it was probably a loose gas cap so I bought a new one and that didn't fix the problem. He said since I don't live in an emissions town that I shouldn't even worry about it (the check engine light) So what maintenance or work would you recommend for my car going forward? If anyone could recommend a general (best guess/ best idea even though you haven't seen the car) set of things to do going forward (preferably by mileage) up as far as you can? Like a schedule that lists work by mileage? I don't want to use the recommended info from the car manual since I haven't used it up until now. Any advice is greatly appreciated everyone!
