Q: I have 2001 Hyundai Accent. I have smelled oil burning for a month or so now. I am having to replace oil?
about every 2 weeks in the car. Also smoke seems to be always coming from the tailpipe. A friend of mine suggested that it may have something to do with the rings in the motor? That the oil was leaking through there and getting on the engine. No clue for sure what that all means. Any suggestions of what it might be?

A: how many miles on this car? did it happen suddenly? if its an old car, maybe its saying you need a replacement. I wouldnt invest any money. you can buy another car for what it takes to do a engine job on a car nowadays. Its cheaper to buy oil also, remember that too...

Q: Will HYUNDAI 1.5L SOHC CYLINDER HEAD 2000 fit in 2001 accent 1.5L?
Will HYUNDAI 1.5L SOHC CYLINDER HEAD 2000 fit in 2001 hyundai accent (12 valve) 1.5L?

A: If you can determine the production date of each head (meaning-the vehicle it came off of), certain ones are interchangeable. From 9/1/99 to 1/31/01 - the SOHC heads are the same. After 1/31/01 the SOHC head changes slightly. You would also change all the gaskets = upper overhaul kit. Which, ironically, is the same for all the 1.5L through 2005. msrp $148.90.

Q: 2001 Hyundai Accent- I found out the seal is broken,caused the oil to leak out- 55,000 miles- warranty?
I found out my Accent has a broken seal, I guess in the engine. The quick lube would not change the oil as the car has NO oil in it now. I am trying to figure out if this falls under the Hyundai warranty at this point. The car has 55,000 miles on it. If not, what is the cost?

A: did you buy the car new. if so you have the 10 yr. 100k warranty. if used you have the 6 yr. 60k warranty. it is covered if you fall under the warranty. i have dealt with 3 hyundais and they are crap. the last was just gotten rid of, 2000 sonata that had over $18,000 worth of warranty repairs. yes $18,000 in documented repairs. get rid of it while you can.

Q: I have a 2001 Hyundai Accent GL and my engine light came on.?
For the past two weeks, I have been having a hard time accelerating and while I am driving my car sometimes jerks really hard. I went to the auto shop today and they did an engine diagnostic test. The mechanic told me that it looked like the transmission was slipping and he referred me to a transmission specialist. I was not able to contact anyone there because they were already closed. So my question is, what do you think the problem with the transmission could be? I hope it nothing too serious.

A: what did the diagnostic tester read out? and it sounds like you may just need a filter and fluid change. it may be an engine problem but the codes are needed to be sure. have auto zone or someone run an engine diagnostic on it and get the codes and definitions.

Q: on a 2001 Hyundai Accent 1.5 L which way does the crankshaft bolt turn to loosen?
I am putting a new timing belt on a 1.5L accent and the crankshaft bolt does not want to loosen to get the pulley off... I am assuming like most crankshaft bolts it should turn counterclockwise to loosen ? right or wrong..Thanks

A: I was just going to say RIGHTY TIGHTY - LEFTY LOOSEY but someone already beat me to it - ahahah

Q: where are the timing marks supposed to be when replacing timing belt on 2001 hyundai accent?


A: Yes, checking the manual is the best bet. Usually there's some marks on the gears that should line up with marks on the block, and you're supposed to rotate the crank, cams and whatever else the timing belt drives until these marks all line up, and then it's safe to put the belt on and tension it. The exact procedure for your engine will be in the manual. Sometimes you can find auto shop manuals at your public library.
