2005 Hyundai Accent from Malaysia - Comments

No problem at this point.

New look of Accent 2005/06 “RX-S Sport Edition” is now available on the road and at the Malaysia Hyundai showroom.

The RX-S body kits make the car look bigger and solid than previous version.

The full specs. version comes with the Leather seats, Leather steering, Pioneer CD Player, ABS, Alloy Rim with GoodYear Tyres & etc.

It is less fuel consumption as compared too many cars.

The quality of its engine and accessories are good as Honda.

The maintenance cost is also low.

This car have large space to carry 5-6 passengers and begs. The space as big as honda city and the seats are comfort, some ppl said it is better than toyota Vios’s back seats.

Another special thing is the air-cond is really cool enough and it can easily adjustable for switching to warm/heat mode if the weather is cool.

Hi, I am a lady driver who plans to get a new car soon. Thinking of Hyundai Accent 1.5.

Can anyone who owns this car advise me on the fuel consumption aspects ASAP?

Regards.

I just have a new RXS Auto 5 door. Jammed road to office = 10.5 litre/100km. Highway 7.6 liter/100km.

I bought my Accent RSX in Oct 2005. Just reached 12,000 km. I have done my 3rd services. No regrets. Full tank cost around RM70 ++. After the first round service, the fuel consumption is lower.

I own a 2000 Hyunda Accent. I purchased it brand new and it has been THE WORST vehicle I have ever owned!!! I can only enter my car through the driver door, there are no other door handles on the car! The windows no longer work, my A/C no longer works, The dom light went out and it is a factory part. The paint has been coming off since the 2nd month. My rear bumper is also falling off (no fault of mine. I have 108,000 miles, I've had 5 tune ups, 5 brake changes, shocks and struts replaced. I was never given a tool to remove my lug nuts so when I got a flat I was STUCK!But what upsets me the most is the advertisement of such a great warranty that they DO NOT HONER! I am VERY unsatisfied with my $13,000 clunker! I will NEVER buy or recommend Hyuandai!

I own a 2005 Accent 5 speed and for the most part very happy with my car. My big complaint is that when it is time to change the tires from season to season I have to take it to a garage and have them put the tires on, because they is no way you can budge the tire off the rims. this cost me $100.00+. If I ever had a flat, there is no way I could change the tire myself, even though they did include a jack with the car. I'm going to trade my car in the spring and there is no way I will buy another Hyundai because of this problem, which should not be.

I'm looking forward on owning an RX-S model; I want to know if I

change my doors to lambo-doors, does it affect my insurance?

Hi.

I have just purchased a RX-S and it seems to be fine, however from what I understand is that if the service and the maintenance is kept up to date, the car should have no issues whatsoever. Would you believe that a company would actually produce the latest 2008 accent if it wasn't for the success of it's previous models. If there is one thing for sure, for any car given if it is well kept and taken care of, it should run perfectly fine. Ignorance is apart from just comment. Love the car and it will love you back. Dramas about this car as been going on forever, I for one would rather love the car and add experience to a better Hyundai driving experience.

Hi...just to get involve in the conferencing.. to show my greatness to own the first batch of Hyundai accents RX-S model. almost 2 years I use the car and the experience as below:

- easy to handle and quiet fast if you know the engine ratio with the right rpm - I make almost 200km/h when traveling at highway

- save fuel - 0.8 cents/km, I take rm 30 to travel from PJ to bahau, n9 return

- maintenance - still never change on major part - Tyre, battery - still in good condition - although I use this car for daily transport with weekends travel long distance.

- spare part - still have optional for other/custom product - the price quiet high when you purchase at service center, but still can get alternative option from accessories shop.

- suitable for any age - my dad like to drive the car and never complaint about the stability and comfort (although he always drive his own luxury cars)

- it's a Subaru/ Evo look a like... but have its own identity.. my mechanic also agreed with it. with the latest technology within its class.

- easy in self maintenance

honestly to said, from the bad news I heard about the Korean cars made before I purchase one it is different when I already own one. for me it's a nice car with a sporty looks and with a fuel saving for everyday use.. the road tax also cheap... for me sometimes you cannot judge a book only by its cover...arious...

Hi, a very good afternoon to all the readers... I owned a Hyundai Accent 1.5 at October 2005, almost 3 years. I had never think of having this car until the car dealer told me that is 0% downpayment. wow, its was attracting me and my hubby, finally I bought this car. honestly to tell you, the stability of this car is good if compared wif the other model (1.5 too), the seater were fully leather and its comfortable. although the back seat were quite tight, but I can say that that its just nice. just give and that, there is no perfection. quite save to the oil fuel, about RM70 per week whereby I travel from sg long to maluri everyday (for your information, its jam horrible everyday).. really can think about it. the speeding is average, there was a time while I drove back from malacca through seremban highway, not bad around 150km, the cornering is good, the car was not shaking. love this car so much.

Hello everyone.. I owned RXS-5 yellow colour since 2006. The performance was very good. From KL to JB is about 3 hours, and I make it to 180km/h. The stability is very good.

Hi... Everyone my name is Vani I would like to buy Hyundai accent RXS. Kindly advice me about this car. I'm very confuse in this matter. Anyone can help me?

Hi guys...

I am currently driving a 2005 Proton LMTS model.. I don't have to tell you guys, but it is a good car, but after 3 years and 125k km's it has started giving problems.. I am currently thinking of changing to Hyundai Accent or Kia Spectra 5. Please give me your views.. thanks.

Nothing to says and nothing to comment. bcoz hyundai accent is very very good performance. we already use in 3 years and no problem. trust me!
