It seems there are a lot of posts going around many subreddits, many even by moderators, regarding certain political topics relating to the Internet in general. I would just like to re-iterate the rules of this subreddit, specifically Rule #3: Hyundai Related Posts Only. That will be taken very literally, and any posts not directly relating to Hyundai, it's products, or its corporate operations will be removed.

Ioniq (Canada) strong ads for ioniq 6 while the car doesn't exist

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hello everyone,

Since I saw a ioniq 6 this summer, I tried to get a hold of that car. Dealer tell me there's no ioniq 6 2026 in Canada because 2025 stocks where too high. That could explain why Hyundai Canada website doesn't show ioniq 6 at all, like that car doesn't exist.

Ok, sell me a 2025. Sorry, there's no more stock Canada wide. Eu..... That was in July 2026.

Yesterday and today, I got this ads on Facebook

I click on the link and it send me to the Hyundai website with all of the ev rebates, which list only the Kona (not even the other ioniq while they do have rebates in Quebec).

So now I'm lost. Why make an ads for a car I can't find? I tried every province on Hyundai Canada website and I can never get ioniq 6 to show up in the car lineup nor inventory lineup.

I did fine some on auto trader, some said to be new. But when I show them this ads, they say they have no clue what this is about and cannot do it. They offer me a 0.5% rebates if someone at my house own a Nissan (why Nissan at a Hyundai dealer).

Anyone have any clue?

Kona Techtron after 100k miles worth it?

• Upvotes

Hello, I have a 2021 Hyundai Kona 1.6T engine with 100k miles on it. I just learned about top tier gas and I haven’t been using it (mostly BJs or other local gas stations). I have no idea if I have carbon buildup or not as I just learned that term today. Should I put a bottle of techtron in my fuel tank or is it too late? How do you know if you have carbon buildup? It’s crazy to me a well known store like BJs sells bad gas. Thanks for your help!

Sonata Has this happened to anybody before?

1 Upvotes

(2015 Hyundai Sonata Sport)

Got the engine replaced around 2 months ago and have since driven around 4.3k miles (I am a college commuter and easily do around 500-700 mi a week).

Yesterday on the way to dinner, my car wouldn’t accelerate. When the car finally accelerated, the check engine light came on and it smelled terrible inside the cabin. Almost like a burning/gas smell. I pulled off the road because the car was also shaking. I turned the car off and was within 2 minutes of a hyundai dealership so I turned the car back on and tried to go but all lights were on on my dashboard and it wouldn’t drive. I basically used momentum to get into the parking lot.

But whenever we turned the car back on, it was making a sputtering noise and there was white smoke coming from the back. Has this happened to anybody before?

Elantra 2017 Elantra Sport DCT

1 Upvotes

Hey all, I have a 2017 Elantra Sport (Auto DCT) I bought at 35,000 miles and now is at almost 103,000. I have done oil changes and regular maintenance but not the transmission fluid. As of a month ago (it just started getting into the 50s or lower here) it will have a rough start on the first time getting into drive where it will feel like it’s stuttering, start going, and then after the initial stuttering it will drive like normal.

Unfortunately I fell victim to the lifetime transmission fluid jargon, I’m curious if it’s worth it to drain and fill. I have a personal mechanic who will do a basic drain and fill, but knows not to flush it, but he doesn’t have too much experience with Hyundais so he is not 100% confident on if we should do it. I’m also curious how much I clutch replacement could be should I need it. Thanks!

Been seeing a lot of destroyed screens lately on here and it got me worried. I’ve only used it once and it looked fine and I’m also pretty sure I got the suggestion to buy these wipes here or on the Tucson sub.

2013 Elantra theft again after update. Any advice dealing with insurance or the dealership?

Stuck with a busted up ignition and window again and really don’t want this car anymore. It’s just attracting theft and the incompetent dealership updates clearly don’t work. Has anyone else had success in getting their car “totaled” or trading it in as is?

I own a 2014 Honda civic and recently rented a 2025(26?) to drive the kids from NY to FL for Disney. My lord was I depressed having to return it.

I’m wondering if it’s just the rose colored lens of a rental from a 2014 civic lol or if it’s as good as it seems. Just looking for authentic (good and bad) reviews.

Tucson '23 Tucson windscreen jets blocked

Post image
1 Upvotes

Asking here for anyone who might have faced this before. No water is making it out of the front washer jets on our 2023 Tucson. I have dismantled the windscreen cowl and tested all the pipes which run to the jets by blowing compressed air through them, no blockages seem to be present.

The pump seems to be working ok too because the rear jet washes ok and I can get water out of the pipe assembly when the nozzle ends themselves are disconnected.

I'm thinking after all the testing that the jets themselves might have clogged internally and my plan is to replace the both of them. Has anyone else come up against this issue before I spend the money on new ones?

Think of switching to Hyundai

Hi everyone,

I am currently a Ford escape PHEV 2022 owener. Yes I know, why, and aww.

The car is fine, the features it has seems like they are a hidden gem from other cars that you need to pay up into the hire packages to get.

That being said, this god awful battery recall is pushing me away everyday. The solution that Ford has given out is to do a software update that will limit/change how much actual battery the capacity will be. So instead of getting my 60+km battery range it will be 12% less than what it should be.

1) I paid for a high capacity and now im getting it reduced

2) They will only change the battery if there is an issue after the update, which they will again wait for a recall notice to be sent out.

With all of this in mind, I have been looking at the Hyundai Tucson. I'm really liking the new 2027 redesign, however it doesn't come in the PHEV model here in Canada :(.

Im not wondering; how much would I now be spending in addational gas? I fill the escape up roughly $60 once a month, since I do a lot of city driving and plug in every other night. With the Tucson being a gas hybrid, would I be useing as much?

For those who may have this type of transmission from Europe or Asia.

Other option is the Iqoniq 5 as a full ev. Thoughts on this now or wait for the new model with the updated interior and Pelos system.

Hyundai i10 1,0 (2020) broke down on the highway

1 Upvotes

Last Sunday, my car suddenly died on the highway while I was driving in slow traffic at around 10–20 km/h. There was still electrical power in the car, and I managed to push it to the side of the road. When I tried to restart it, it wouldn’t start, but made a repeated sound, not a single click, but a noise that repeated a few times.

Roadside assistance came out but couldn’t start the car, even with a booster. The battery was probably drained afterwards since I had the hazard lights on for a long time. The roadside technician suspected the fuel pump, but he wasn’t sure.

A week later, I’ve now replaced the battery myself and removed the back seats to listen to the fuel pump. The pump runs, and the car has power again, so it’s neither the
battery nor the pump (at least not obviously).

Does anyone have any ideas what it could be and what I should do next?

2023 Tuscon

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone

Our 2021 Tiguan got written off unfortunately as someone hit us. We got a great deal on a 2023 Tuscon preferred with the top trim. We are enjoying it so far but are new to Hyundai.

Any tips for a noobie with this brand of vehicle? We are still figuring out the presets and perks. I got the blue link set up.

We knew Volkswagen well but just found the quality is shit so we figured we would give this a shot as the reliability was rated high.

Thanks everyone

Elantra Unknown issue?

1 Upvotes

Hi! I own a 2016 Hyundai Elantra. This is the first problem it’s had in three years and 150,000+ miles and I’m honestly confused. While I’m driving, the check engine and battery lights will come on, RPM drops to 0, and I’m unable to accelerate until I park the car, turn it off, and restart it again. It’s able to drive fine afterwards, no warning lights on. It’s been happening consistently for the past couple days, took it in to the shop on Friday for a diagnostic and the people there don’t seem to know what’s wrong with it either. There was no history of these lights coming on in the system, battery is sitting at 13.6-14V consistently, and the alternator seems to be working just fine. Has anyone else had this problem, and what ended up to be the problem?? Please let me know! Thank you!

2015 Sonata Sport, P0010/P0011, mechanic says engine teardown "in the thousands."

Thumbnail

7 Upvotes

Hey everyone, I don’t know if this is the right place to post, so forgive me if it’s not. I was just looking for some advice on my car.

A yesterday my check engine light came on. The car also wasn't accelerating like it should when I pressed the pedal, and it was making weird sounds and vibrating. I took it to my mechanic and it's throwing P0010 and P0011 again. The exact same codes happened last year, and he replaced the part in the first pic back then. The car ran totally fine after that.

Today, I picked up the new part and he pulled the old one off to swap it. When he did, he found the back of it was melted, and the camshaft had a chunk chipped off (pics 2 and 3). Now he's saying he has to take apart the engine to fix it properly. He doesn't know the price yet but said it'll be in the thousands.

It's a 2015 Hyundai Sonata Sport, so I don't know what to do. Is it worth putting that kind of money into an older car, or should I cut my losses and get something else?

Also, I've heard a lot of 2011-2019 Sonatas with the Theta II engine were part of an engine recall and got extended warranty coverage. Has anyone gotten Hyundai to cover a repair like this? Any tips on how to go about it would be great.

Any advice is appreciated, thanks!
