2003 Hyundai Tiburon Gt V6 2.7l Black/black - Needs Work on 2040-cars
Houston, Texas, United States
2003 Hyundai Tiburon
This would be a great project for somebody that knows a mechanic or has the desire to work on cars. My car repair days are behind me, so now it's your turn! Details: V6 DOHC GT 2.6L 6-speed manual transmission 125000 miles, all original except for clutch at 40k and air compressor last year. Mild paint fading due to age, but has been garage kept for most of it's life. Parking brake cable needs adjustment or replacement. Passenger exterior door handle is broken. I have a replacement already. Driver exterior door handle is about to break, but still works. I have a replacement. Both windows do not work. I have a replacement motor and regulator. Air conditioner has gone out. Possibly due to the used compressor I installed last year, or some other issue. I have not troubleshot this. The head gasket is believed to be damaged due to an overheating situation. I believe the water pump failed causing a dangerous overheating event. The radiator has a crack due to exhaust gases being forced into the cooling system. Basically, I didn't notice the overheat until steam appeared from the engine compartment. At that time I immediately pulled over and turned off the engine. The mechanic who reviewed the car said the head gasket is most likely damaged, but unsure until the engine is pulled apart. The engine does start and it runs rough. With the radiator crack, I would recommend a tow pickup and not a drive away. Brand new tires and wheels. I clipped some Freeway debris about two months ago that damaged a wheel. Buying four new low-end wheels from Discount Tire was less than one new Hyundai wheel. I drove this car every day for the past 10 years and it was exceptional the entire time. Replacement parts I have and are included in this sale: Right and left exterior door handles, unpainted (black) Power window regulator Power window motor Timing belt Rear valve cover gasket (I replaced the front a few months ago) |

Wed, 31 Jul 2013A Lesson In How To Out-Lexus The LS
I think that the new BMW 4 Series is an attractive coupe. The design is a little bit on the wrong side of "fussy" I'll grant you, and I don't particularly care for the look of the scalloped, black-bordered vents on the fender sides - functional though they may be. But for the most part, I find the coupe to be pretty pleasing to look at.
You all, by and large, do not care for the 4 Series. (For the sake of constructing my intellectual argument, I'm going to make the ridiculous statistical assumption that the 140 or so comments on our 4 Series First Drive provide a representative opinion of our readership as a whole.) In the first 24 hours after we published our review of the car, you felt moved to comment that it was "ugly," "REALLY ugly" and "a disappointment" among other, less reprintable statements of ardor.
Hyundai twin-charged 1.8L GDCI gas engine expected to be more efficient than 2.0L diesel
Fri, 15 Nov 2013Despite the growing trend of automakers offering diesel-powered or electrified powertrains, there's still a whole lot that can be done with the good-old gasoline internal combustion engine. And at Hyundai, that's exactly what's being worked on - new gasoline engine technologies that improve both performance and efficiency. During an event at the automaker's technical center in Superior Township, MI on Friday, Hyundai gave Autoblog a glimpse into the future, offering up preliminary details on its new GDCI (Gasoline Direct-Injection Compression) engine - something that will be heading to production soon.
Hyundai's main goal with this GDCI engine is to "achieve diesel levels of fuel efficiency with conventional gasoline," according to Nayan Engineer (yes, his last name is Engineer), one of Hyundai's powertrain gurus. What's more, Engineer says the GDCI engine will offer "equal to better performance than conventional gasoline engines" and will have a "lower system cost [than] diesel engines."
Hyundai expects a 1.8-liter GDCI engine to be more efficient than a comparable 2.0-liter diesel engine with similar performance.
Hyundai Prius-Fighter Hybrid could preview next attack on Toyota's champion
Wed, 20 Aug 2014Hyundai is no stranger to the hybrid game, selling a gas-electric version of the Sonata in the US since 2011. The 2015-model-year version gets 38 miles per gallon combined, which is certainly admirable but not quite in the same league as the hybrid champion Toyota Prius (50 mpg combined). New spy shots reveal that Hyundai might be finally ready to targeting the non-plug-in fuel economy leader. Why else would some mysterious Hyundai prototypes be cruising through the desert hills with a few Priuses in tow?
Our photographers believe these mules hint at an all-new hybrid model, which makes us think of the Blue Will concept from the 2010 Detroit Auto Show. At the time, Hyundai said the concept could be a preview of a future dedicated hybrid that would compete with the Prius.
We don't know what it all means for sure, but our spy photographers found four heavily modified Elantra GT prototypes driving around with a standard Prius and a Prius V. As if that wasn't enough of a clue, the four changed Elantras represent different approaches Hyundai might be using to go after Toyota, since there were two versions driving by our photographer's lenses, with different rear extensions indicating that both the standard Prius and the larger V might be in Hyundai's sights.
