Zhane, your car looks well kept, always liked the 2nd, 3rd and 4th gen Sonatas but I hate the 1st gen. My teacher years ago purchased a Sonata like yours, he still has it original up to today. It have fogs, sunroof, leather seats, airbags, 4-wheel disc, abs, cd, 2.0 dohc 16v, auto, 15" alloys, keyless alarm etc. Only original replacement parts he putting in but the resale value aint all that. Its 10 years old and if he get $40k for it, he lucky.

thanks guys..

x2floor... that is my main concerning with owning these type of cars the amount of time, money and energy that i have invested in this car i know i would be compensated for it if i had to sell the car.

$40k that man real luck the most i was ever offered for my car was $32K and that was about a yr ago

This first tune up should comprise the following unless you know the service history of the car:
- Change oil and oil filter (should be done every 5,000 km)
- Change fuel filter (should be done every 10,000 km)
- Change air filter (should be done every 10,000 km at most)
- Change spark plugs (should be done every 20,000 km)
- Check engine timing (should be done every 5,000 km)
- Clean carburettor (if equipped, should be done every 5,000 km)
- Clean fuel injectors (if equipped, cleaning interval should not exceed 20,000 km)
- Flush out and replace coolant (should be done every 20,000 km)
- Flush out and replace brake fluid (should be done every 20,000 km)
- Flush out and replace clutch fluid (should be done every 20,000 km)
- Inspect drive belts - alternator, air-conditioning and power steering (should be done every 5,000 km)
- Check over suspension and tighten/replace whatever is necessary (should be done every 5,000 km)
- Check brakes and replace as necessary (should be done every 5,000 km)
- Check wheel balance and alignment (interval for re-checking this all depends on the road conditions over which you drive, but you should check it about every 6 months for a minimum)

That should hold you out until the 60,000 km service when, in addition to the above, you should:
- Replace all drive belts (should be done every 60,000 km)
- Replace timing belt and tensioner (should be done every 60,000 km)
- Replace gearbox oil (should be done every 30,000 km)

You should try and get your hands on a Neal and Massey Service Schedule for the Hyundai cars, but what I have written above basically covers it.

How's it working so far?

What sort of fuel consumption do you get with it?

You put on those rims or did Neal and Massey? If you put them on yourself, did N&M tell you anything about voiding the warranty?

looks like ill be seeing your car often....gonna live there soon :mrgreen:

them rims bad but i like those stock 16"s alot.....hope u still have them and didn't trade them away. How the ride quality and steering response with those 18"s?

KarbonFiber · Postby **KarbonFiber** » December 2nd, 2007, 11:23 pm

Rory...
1. Fuel consumption is ok, (ill have to check the dash again... that display gives u so much info) but its a new car so its difficult to tell, meaning I hardly pay attention to it.
2. Before I even thought about putting these on, I made sure from Neal & Massy that they will still maintain the warranty. Its alloy 18's so they had no problem. I installed them at Master Serve (NM in a sense). As I had mentioned before they maintain the warranty on 17", 18" alloy and only 17" chrome.

X2...
I still have the stock rims and tires that came with the car.
A funny thing, the NM rep called me and asked me to bring the car in for a customer to see as they didnt have any in stock. Another rep jumped in the car with the customer and we drove off. While we were on the road he was like "You sure you have 18's? this ride feeling real good" The steering has not been affected either. The tires chosen kinda help with that.

Yo i have a Hyundai SCoupe LS with a Nissan GA15 in it. No turbo, no major mods, just a lot of fun. The SCoupe LS is a really fun car but engine parts are hard to come by so i douglarised it and went Nissan. Did over the entire drivetrain to Nissan B13-B14 parts. Left a 2003 Lancer, Nissan Frontier and some guy in a Wingroad who thought he was tough by various traffic lights in sando 8-)

.

I plan to do some simple stuff to it. Plugs, wires, CAI, and maybe a 5fwd box (if i get the chance) and maybe a lil octane boost now and again in the tank. In the future, ultimately, SR20DET Turbo, when the degree is finished and i finally get some cash.
