1998 Hyundai Coupe review from UK and Ireland
"It is a heap of junk that keeps robbing my money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My car revs up all the time. It is very embarrassing. I feel like a boy racer when I am stuck in traffic and everyone stares at me! I have taken it to three mechanics and the main Hyundai dealer, and no one can tell me what is wrong. I suspect it is the idle control valve or throttle position sensor.
I had to replace the clutch along with a long list of other things which cost me e1500.
I was driving along one day and my bloody sunroof blew off the car!! Lucky it did not kill someone. It wasn't even open! so I had to get a new one and have it resprayed.
I also seem to have the flashing clock syndrome that so many others are complaining about. Other than that it is great (not).
General comments?
Nice looking.
Heap of scrap.
Weird things go wrong wit it!
