Elantra GD (2013+) :: Water Leakage In Hatch
This morning I went to put some stuff in my hatch to go to a job and looked at the paper towel role I keep wedged in the small little cubby in the front corner and lifted it up and it was SOAKING wet! I literally could squeeze the paper towel and water would come out of it (like you submerged a paper towel in water and immediately squeezed it out). Its rained about 1.5 inches in the past few days and my car had been sitting while it was raining but had been driven between the two storms. I WILL be contacting the dealer very soon.
The funny thing is my Genesis has a recall for the water Leakage through the tail light housing.

View 7 RepliesCamry :: 1MZ-FE Oil Leakage Around Filter Seal?
I have had a 2002 Camry with the 3.0 V6 (1MZ-FE) for a few months, and just changed the oil for the first time. I'm no stranger to oil changes, having done them myself for many years on a variety of cars. Never had a problem with it before. But no matter what I do I cannot get the filter on the Camry to seat right and seal. It leaks from the driver's side of the filter and drips straight down onto the exhaust (and smells just lovely). The leak is such that before I realized what was happening, the car was leaving a quart a week on the ground.
I've tried a couple different filters, thinking I maybe had some defective ones with a bad seal. But I get exactly the same results with both OEM Denso filters (the blue ones) and factory ones from a Toyota dealer.
I am quite sure that I did not leave the old filter gasket on the engine before putting the new filter on. The only thing I can think of is that maybe I am consistently overtightening the filter. I've never had a car that was fussy about that before, so I'm usually pretty casual about it---just follow the rule of "turn it by hand until you feel the gasket hit the block, then give it a turn with the wrench." But the filter on this car is so hard to reach from below that I was pretty much doing it by feel. (I only just discovered that you can do it from above if you remove the upper shield from around the exhaust manifold---that was how I got a clear enough view of that side of the block to be sure where the oil was coming out.)
Sonata I45 (YF - 2011+) :: Leakage From Oil Filter Area?
After last oil change the car started leaking oil from the oil filter area. I went to the dealer a few times and finally they replaced the oil filter (that's what they told me) and it stopped. Fast forward to today....
I changed the oil again and remembering the last time I wiped the oil filter dry and made sure it's not leaking. Today I drove to work and when I got here my oil filter was wet and oily.. so I took a few pics with my phone. Need to identify where this leak is coming from?
Windstar :: 2003 - Coolant Leakage After Lower Intake Gasket Replacement
Well, I decided to take on the dreaded task of replacing the lower manifold intake gaskets and put in new isolator bolts. It was a major undertaking, and when I finally finished the oil change and fired up the car, it sounded fine. Then I checked under the hood.
I saw coolant spurting out the side of one of the hose connections that I had to take off and put back on. I thought the gasket on it looked pretty worn, but wasn't expecting this!
Unfortunately I don't know the name of the hose connection to pick up a gasket at the store ... it's the larger lower hose that is bolted on to the lower intake, not the hose slightly above it that has the plastic clips.
What is the name of this hose connection so I can try and find one at the store? It's a 2003 Windstar model.

Wife's 2002 elantra is leaking at the fuel rail pretty badly. Looks like maybe there should have been a hose clamp on it, i can see the indentations on at the rail on the rubber fitting. So i put a hose clamp on it. stopped leaking....just went out a few hours later to check it again, started it up....started leaking same spot.
We are getting a new car in 3-4 months. All i want to do is replace the line from the rail to...the next closest fitting.
Are there any videos? PIctures? Documents how to do this? I've never replaced a fuel line, doesn't seem like it could be hard. Just don't know how those fittings work. I've been known to turn a few wretches here and there.

View 5 RepliesLexus RX 2010-15 :: 2013 RX350 Oil Leakage From Timing Chain Cover
I have a 13 RX350 with 10,000 miles with a side engine oil leak. I looked underneath and I think it's the timing chain cover seal. Took it to the dealer and they put dye in my oil to figure out where the leak is coming from. They suspect it to the timing chain cover as well. I am aware that 07 ES350s had a know oil leak coming from the timing chain cover but haven't heard anything about the RX having this issue. My service rep said they would have to remove the engine to fix the leak.

On my first trip with the new Santa Fe. After 400 miles today, while just 50 miles from Vegas, the A/C blower quit working. It sounded like it was blowing as normal but almost no air was coming from the vents. Being just 50 miles out I pushed on.
After arriving home (only 98 today luckily) I turned off the car and unloaded. After about 20 minutes, I started the car and the A/C and blower seemed fine. I looked at the ground and about a pint of water (at least it looked and felt like water I did not taste it) seemed to leak after I started it from the center of the car about even with the front door. What happened? Any cause for alarm?

View 5 RepliesElantra XD (2001-06) :: 2005 - Oil Leaking From The Valve Cover Gasket
A couple of days ago, I was driving my car around when the oil pressure light came on. Having recently changed the oil myself, I figured I had neglected to tighten something down there and it had become loose and was leaking oil. I stopped at two different shops. Both shops told me the leak was coming from the valve cover gasket. Instead of paying $200 for them to replace it, I did it myself. I didn't use any sealant or silicone, or anything like that. The old gasket was hard as a rock and had some sort of red cement around it.
After I had everything back together, I had a partner start the car for me. The oil leak has become much worse--probably a quart a minute. The thing is... I can't see any oil leaking from the valve cover gasket. You would think that an oil leak of that volume would be visible if it were coming from the top of the engine, no? We're going to take the gasket off again to inspect and perhaps use some gasket sealant in select spots, per some YouTube videos we watched.
Hyundai - Elantra :: Overheated Engine Blows Head Gasket
I have a hyundai elantra 2005 with over 200K mi. last month it started overheating. I could not go a mile before it reached H again. No one could find any leaks and fan would go on if I put the AC on. Yet it would get so hot the car wouldn't start ( sounded like it was out of gas) I finally got to my mechanic and they said and showed me the fan had cracked and was bubbling water/coolant out. It had been okay could I have made it crack by still driving it? I stopped everytime and let it cool down..
They replaced fan but car was still going to H immediately. They then told me I had blown the head gasket. Between that and the fan it cost me 1100.00 I just got it back today and the AC is blowing hot air and it is driving oddly. It lurches and the tach sometimes jumps to 3 while I'm driving. they also replaced the timing belt again which the mechanic there had just did a few months ago. It feels like its going to stall out all the time and when I get around the 60 mph mark it lurches or feels like its not even in gear as though I'm revving it. Could this be normal because the head gasket is new and has to break in?

Now I tried to reach it. But I can not figure out how to take grove box rid with out giving a damage. Even it may not there behind a glove box (my wild guess).
