Good tip, regarding getting it into reverse. I've found that it works. It's a fight at times otherwise.

Overall, after 21 months and 14,000 miles, I'm pleased with the car. No problems. Oil changes at or under 3k miles have been all that I've done to the car.

I had this problem with my parents' 1999 5 speed Civic. Looks like it's not just Hyundai. Thanks for the tip.
