Hyundai parts reviews
I would suggest the Valeo HD kit which feels similar to stock, but holds a lot more power, and get the stainless clutch line added it. I have the BK1 3.8 and replaced mine with the Valeo HD kit and flywheel from the BK2 and I like it. My original clutch also lasted until 242k miles because I don't drive it like an idiot...and it was actually the slave cylinder that went out. The clutch disc had a good bit of life left in it.
I personally use Shell Rotella T6 5w40 for the fact that I live in the florida and the heat is killer.
Original battery in my GF’s Elantra finally died today after 10 years.
When I was buying my tires, I did a ton of research and narrowed it down to Bridgestone Blizzak and Michelin X-Ice. I ended up getting the blizzaks and they're really awesome, so quiet and extremely effective. I wasn't just looking for a snow tire, but also one that performed well on slush (because Toronto ????). You'd be good on either of these tires.

I tried the Pirellis on Saturday and was sliding around a bit. Used the Falkens on Sunday and once I got the pressures right, I had good grip with no understeer or oversteer.
My Hyundai has been solid, just maintenance. My front struts failed but my dealership replaced them under warranty.
I just put Bosch plugs in my 13 Veloster turbo and got 300 miles and it started missing replaced with the ngks no issue since
I ordered the Denso part listed as being compatible after having cross referenced it with Denso's own site along with a new condenser, expansion valve and seals. Receive the order and take it to the shop for installation. They call and say it doesn't fit. The mounting holes on the old one are 133mm apart while the new is 132mm apart. They say the bolt simply won't go in due to it having such small tolerances.
