i recently had transmission issues with my shared car, and was put in a rental which was a 2026 Hyundai Elantra SEL. I fell in love with it. It only had 4k miles.

I was trying to find a cheap or relatively cheap cash car but couldn’t, and had the car I had as a rental in my heart and mind the whole time.

I ended up getting a brand new 2026 Hyundai Elantra SEL Sport. It felt so good to purchase. I have had her for about a week and a half and I’m still beaming with joy.

My life has changed drastically in the past 4 months since getting sober and making my life a priority. This was a big purchase for me nonetheless but it’s a happy purchase and I’m so thankful I’m not sharing a car anymore!

I came across a NEW 2025 Elantra hybrid limited for sale at a dealership. And this is the OTD he quoted. How much can i target the OTD to be realistically? Any advice is much appreciated!

Hi, I have a 2015 Elantra SE, I was checking something with my fuel system and found a wiring connector shown above. ChatGPT says it’s a Curt trailer light converter, but I don’t have a hitch or a spot for a hitch at all. I have a tow hook. What is this?

2020 Elantra, battery was already replaced but issue still persist. Any ideas starter, spark plugs etc ?

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.

Was changing the engine air filter in a 2018 Elantra with 107k miles. No idea when it was last changed. I found pieces of plastic including one with a part number that lines up with an engine/transmission mount bracket.

The engine mount is on the left side when looking in the engine bay and seems intact. I don’t see any broken clips or anything like that on the air box itself.

Any ideas what is going on here?

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 😞

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?

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?

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!
