Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Ticking Noise Coming From The Engine

I have a 2012 Elantra sedan and I have a ticking noise coming from the engine.......I have had the noise since new.......but it was very faint.......it has gotten worse with time........I had mentioned this to the dealership when it was new but they said it was normal engine noise! It sounds like the older cars used to sound when there was a valve clearance problem.....but with the advent of overhead cams.....I'm not sure what the problem is.........78,000km on engine!

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Loud Ticking Noise From Engine When Temp Below 25F (-4C) For 5 Minutes

You know the ticking noise that is normal for our engines? Well, below 25 degrees F, it is the most worst noise ever. It sounds like the valve train is going to explode. Just keep in mind I've driven many cars. The ticking noise shouldn't be outrageously loud.

But my main problem that is worrying me is this WHOMP-WHOMP-WHOMP noise. The higher the RPM the faster the noise. Doesn't matter if the car is moving or not and I know it's coming from the engine. I hope it's not related to the loud ticking. It only happens for approximately 5 minutes. After that, there's no WHOMP sound and the ticking goes back to normal sound levels.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Ticking Noise From The Exhaust

Since I brought my car to the Mississauga Hyundai dealership for an oil change and check up for a rattling sound my car has come back to this new ticking noise from the exhaust.

I had the dealership do an oil change (my own synthetic bought Quakerstate oil) and apparently they put a clamp/bracket because my exhaust was making the rattling sound. The rattling sound is gone, BUT i have this ticking sound every time after the car is shutoff no matter short or long drive. Also can hear it while driving sometimes.

I have took the car back to the dealership and they told me this is normal, the thing is my car has never made this sound before i took it to the dealership. The hyundai dealership claims that this is just exhaust cooling down/ heat expansion. I am curious to why it never made this sound before.

It is a 2011 Elantra gl with 67,000km here is a video after a 15 min drive : [URL] .....

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Engine Has A Ticking Sound

My elantra has around 7000 miles on the odometer. I have noticed for a while that after sitting for a few hours or over night the engine has a ticking sound to it. The noise will last for a few minutes then goes away. I figured that the cold weather might have been the cause. Not it is almost summer and the noise is continuing. Im not sure if this is normal for these engines. but any other car i have had has not had an extended tick at startup.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Random Ticking Noise While Driving

I have 2011 Elantra and been loving the car, getting great mileage. Recently I started hearing this ticking randomly while driving. Sometime during reverse, at random stopping. It is a single tick and it goes away.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Ticking Noise From Exhaust While Driving

Compared to my last car, the ticking noise you normally hear from the exhaust after you shut the car is louder in my elantra. But that doesnt bother me. However, i can hear that same exhaust noise while im driving. Its coming from underneath the middle of the car not the engine. My old car did not make that noise while driving, just after i shut the car off.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Ticking Noise When Turning And Braking

I have a 2012 hyundai elantra gls 6speed manual. Every time I apply the brake and turn the car makes a ticking noise that appears to come from the front. It happens when I turn either way. I just had the car inspected, but forgot to mention the noise, and they didn't say anything was wrong with the brakes. It only happens with the brake applied. When I let off the brake the noise stops.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2012 - Fast Ticking Noise While Accelerating

About a month and a half ago my Elantra while accelerating starting to make a fast ticking noise that was noticeable from usual with the radio and Air off but not terribly loud. The car still seemed to run the same.

So I took the car into the Dealer for my usual oil change and the recall for the automatic transmission and had them check it out. I was expecting nothing major. Turns out the service manager said a control armed failed as well as a piston and the damage was done. The will have to replace the entire top half of the engine at least and check the lower parts while taking it a part. They let me drive off and said to bring it back on Tuesday. Said he will drive to the rental car place and set me up in a rental while they fix it. Estimated to take 4-5 days while further checking into it.

It was noted as a "knock" in the upper part of the engine on the form I was handed after the car was checked out. They also said they would not bother doing an oil change on the car because of this issue. The car has a little over 27K miles on it.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Ticking Noise On Driver Side When Driving Over 60KM/H

I picked-up my GLS '13 the other night. I realized right away, that when I hit 60Km per hour +, there is a ticking sound on the drivers side. I can't pinpoint where the sound is coming from, but the speed of the tick increases with acceleration. I'm going to take it in, I checked for rocks, nails but nothing.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Tranny Slipping - Ticking Noise Coming From The Front Left

I recently purchased a 2015 Elantra a few months ago and I have noticed a couple times now that when I'm driving along and hit the gas when I'm trying to pass someone or speed up in a hurry that it just revs high but doesn't catch until it revs back down. Is this a normal thing these days or could it be a problem? It's an auto. Also the other day I had the window down and I heard ticking noise sounded like it was coming from the front left but it followed my speed. Hit the brakes and it didn't change but it slowed down when I slowed down. Then I turned and it stopped and haven't noticed it since but I haven't really gone too far.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2014 - Ticking Noise While Accelerating / Louder At Higher RPMs

I bought a new 2014 Elantra last Monday. Around 100 miles (Wednesday) I noticed it was making a ticking noise when accelerating. The sound gets louder at higher RPMs and goes away when I get off of the accelerator. You can't hear it over the radio but it's embarrassing when my passengers do. It almost sounds like a puff of air escaping or something, similar to a go-kart engine lol.

Anyways, I took it to the dealer Thursday and they drove it and said the noise was normal during the engines break-in period and if it persists after 15k to bring it back and they would see if there was something that needed tightening.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Ticking Sound Coming From Under Hood Proportional To Engine Speed

2011 Elantra GL.

Recently, we noticed a ticking sound coming from under the hood (the rate of "ticking" was proportional to the engine speed). We took the vehicle in to the local Hyundai dealership and didn't hear anything from them until 6 hours later. The news was interesting; they were going to perform a full engine replacement after consulting with Hyundai Canada. In my experience, a resolution of this large of a magnitude usually takes weeks of kicking and screaming for any large corporation to comply, however it seems like a pretty hasty conclusion, indicating to me that Hyundai might be already aware of such an issue...

So here is my question. We requested photos from the dealership, and they were able to send two pictures of one of the camshafts (not sure if it's the intake or exhaust cams), but the only thing that I could notice was some slight abrasion/wear; certainly not enough for me to ever come to the conclusion that a full engine swap was necessary. I've attached the pictures.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Traction Control Light Blinking Upon Light Acceleration

Hyundai Elantra 2011... My issue occurred just yesterday on a highway at speeds above 65 mph. I initially noticed my traction control light blinking upon light acceleration but with no noticeable loss in traction.

I continued with caution. About 5 minutes later, the light now was blinking regardless of the amount of acceleration. I found I could push the accelerator to the floor with no added power and my speedometer was dropping below 55 mph.

Being a busy highway, I had to very quickly get to the side of the road as my car dropped to dangerous speeds in the middle of the highway. Had I no shoulder or outlet, I could've been in serious trouble.

The situation resolved itself with a simple shut down, restart of the vehicle. But it makes me very concerned why the error in the computer occurred in the first.

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Clunking Noise / Knock On Acceleration

For the last few weeks (about a month) I have been experiencing a clunking noise/ knock on acceleration coming from either in front of my feet or below my feet (drivers side) ONLY on acceleration and only then from a full stop. I can also feel the clunk as well which leads me to believe it is a transmission mount.....maybe an engine mount. I am taking her to the dealer after work today. we had some very cold weather and I was hoping it was just ice but yesterday and today were well above zero and it is still there and it is EVERY time I accelerate. Which is a somewhat good thing since I will be able to replicate the problem for Hyundai.....

Chevrolet - Hhr :: 2010 - Ticking Noise From Engine

I purchased a 2010 Chevy HHR 4-cylinder with automatic transmission & 50K miles last December. I am hearing a lite ticking noise when I gently press the gas pedal and the car begins to accelerate. To me it sounds like a lifter or sticking valve. I took it to a Chevy dealer & they acknowledged hearing the ticking noise but after two days they could not find the problem....no computer codes. Nothing! This is a weird problem since if you have the car in neutral, engine running, with the hood open...you don't hear the noise. If I roll down the window when the car is underway I don't hear the noise. If the windows are closed the noise is very apparent when the car is in gear and I accelerate lightly. As the RPM's increase the noise seems to go away but you hear it again as the transmission shifts to the next gear and the engine is under load.

The car seems to run fine, the idle is not rough, the acceleration is spot on, gas mileage seems great. The oil is clean & changed at 47K.

Anyway....the dealer told me it could be an injector or something else but had no answers. A friend told me to try another oil change and use a synthetic oil. Someone else told me to put more insulation under my hood so I don't hear the engine. I'm really frustrated with this noise and want to make sure I don't have a serious engine problem. What the cause of this noise might be?

Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Squeaking Noise On Hard Acceleration - Rear Spring Mounting Direction

I took my rear springs off for some cleaning and lubing because they were making squeaking noise on hard acceleration, but I forgot to note which direction the springs should point...

I kinda remember the top and bottom. If I got this right, the end with a smaller loop is on the bottom.

Is there any difference between left and right springs? Also, the spring mounting pads is not symmetrical. Which way are they suppose to face? Does it matter?

Elantra GD (2013+) :: Acceleration Noise When Engine Is Under Any Load

The sound is only there when the engine is under any load. If I am very careful I can raise through the RPM without the noise, but give it a little bit more gas and there it is. It sounds kind of like an exhaust leak, but I'm not sure.

[URL] ....

Listen closely right at 0:12-0:15. That is me accelerating for 3 seconds, and that sound like a rain stick is my engine.

Elantra HD (2006-10) :: No Acceleration And Jerky - Engine Light Came On

After a road trip (approximately) 80km both ways, I came back to my home area and filled up and got a car wash. Then I went home. About 2 hours after I noticed the car felt very jerky, and had no acceleration. Then big time sputtering. I turned off the car and waited for it to cool down. Once cool, it just kept on cranking. It started at one point and the engine light came on. And now it only cranks.
