Elantra XD (2001-06) :: Stalls While Driving Frequently / RPMs Drop For A Split Second
06 Elantra Limited, 96,xxx miles. When I'm idling at a light or something, the Rpms drop for a split second, almost to the point of stalling, but recovers. Happens in a split second. Does the same thing even when driving, but does it more frequently when idling. It even does that when I first put my foot on the throttle to accelerate from a red light.
I've cleaned the throttle body but it still does it. I've taken it to 3auto parts stores. One said that battery was bad. The other said the battery is fine but alternator is producing low. The last said both are fine.
Phaeton :: Stutter Or Brief Jerk While Driving / Coolant Level Warning
While driving my 04 w12 a few months ago i noticed a "stutter" or brief jerk while driving. the next morning i had a "coolant level" warning. i took the car to a mechanic i use who diagnosed the problem as a broken coolant line involving the transmission cooler, with the result that coolant migrated to the atf. indication was that the tranny was toast, along with the atf cooler. I authorized a repair (not inexpensive), keeping costs down by installing a used tranny. since the car was "fixed" i still got a "jerk" usually in fourth gear, sometimes in third. i took the car back and was told that the tranny was flushed numerous times and the transmission was reflashed. i picked the car up yesterday, but i still get the "jerks", now usually in third gear.

I bought my car last May and never noticed the radiator fans running, but over the past couple of months they've been coming on (or at least running at a higher speed) pretty much every time I take it for a longer drive. They appear to come on only when I'm idling and turn off when I start moving again. The temperature gauge is steady at just below halfway. I'm certain this didn't happen previously, or if it did the fans were at a low enough speed that I didn't hear them. In my inexperience I would have thought they'd be less likely to run in the winter, and we've been having continuously cold weather (<30 C).

My Santa Fe 2004 V6 2.7L 97K recently downshifts and revs up while I'm driving. It happened about a week ago once or twice. I thought I was stepping on the gas too aggressively. But last 2-3 days it came back and more frequently to a point that I'm afraid to take it to the highway.
I checked the transmission oil, it looks pink and full. What problem am I potentially looking at? Would it be cheap to fix? Do Hyundai dealers cover it under the 10-year/100K mile warranty thing?
Impala - Chevrolet :: 2011- While Accelerating From A Stop Stutter Then Jerk Forward?
I have a 2011 Chevy Impala. When accelerating from a stop it will frequently stutter then jerk forward. The first time this happened I thought someone had rear-ended me.
I've been to the dealer several times about this however they say they cannot isolate the cause. More importantly I can't seem to get the vehicle to repeat this problem when I've brought it to the dealership.

Prius (2004-09) :: Left Headlight Will Frequently Go Out While Driving
I have a 2009 prius with 85k miles on it, bought it two weeks ago, right off the bat I noticed that the left headlight, while driving, will frequently go out. It comes back on when I turn the headlights off and on again, and goes out again later. Sometimes it stays on, other times it goes right out. I took the headlamp off, disconnected all wires, and cleaned it of any corrosion that was found and reconnected it, and the light still went out. What would be causing this/ what a fix is non mechanic oriented?
View 2 RepliesHyundai - Accent :: Oil Change Intervals When Not Driving Frequently
If you drive less than 6000 or maybe even less than 3000 miles a year, how often should one change the oil on the car? Or don't bother with time interval but mileage as recommended for the make and model? I'm not sure there's a recommendation for time on the make & model, I'll check sometime.
Car in question is a Hyundai Accent 2009
Elantra MD (2010-15) :: Car Squeaks / Stutter And Runs Rough
Since day one there has been a squeak within the cabin, sounds almost like styrofoam cups being rubbed together! Mainly with bounces but getting worse and worse, to the point a simple turn causes it. Almost sounds like inside of car moving within body.........shifting might be better. Nothing in trunk or under seats, checked all that. Lived with it but drives me insane lately.
Second it runs very rough, and with acceleration RPM can jump to 6000 with a tap but trying to merge onto highway leaves me sputtering at 1000. Or it suddenly speeds up like I gave it a ton of gas, but I didn't change a thing.Idles loud too and "misses"
I am a single mom , my only car, dealer 40 minutes away. I just cannot lose a day of work to sit with my car for the recall etc. Will service give me a loaner for a day? Yes I will call them, I just wanted some info before I do! Not too trusting here.
Grand AM :: Stutter When Driving And Go Up A Hill
Ok, when I'm driving and go up a hill or have to give it light pedal it stutters, almost like a cyl drop. I'm pretty sure its not a cylinder drop. It will continue to do it until I release throttle and mash it down again.
Also, when i turn the key at start up, I get nothing. I have to put it in N then it starts right up. Neutral saftey switch? And would that be related to the above issue? Guy at a shop said he thinks its IAC and said its connected to N switch?

View 11 RepliesElantra XD (2001-06) :: Car Stuck Into 2nd Or 3rd Gear While Driving
2001 Hyundai Elantra 183 miles.
codes- p0720 output speed sensor circuit malfunction, p0500 veh speed sensor a malfunction.
Recent fixes on my 2001 Hyundai Elantra.
A few months ago i had my speed sensor cleaned, and a power steering leak. No problem after that was fixed and cleaned the sensor. Soon after that my water pump went bad and i had that replaced along with 3 new belts. Just last week i had my front driver side replaced with a new wheel bearing and axle.
My Problem then and now.
My problem months ago, my car would be shifting into different gears as it pleased; while driving or sitting at a light i would feel it jump and it felt as if it was stuck into 2nd or 3rd gear as i was driving. My engine light would soon come on after this. To accelerate i feel as if i had to floor my pedal when the shifting or engine light came on. I looked up my codes and they are the same as they are now. I read about same problem and fixed it by just cleaning the speed sensor off. My friend and i did the same thing and it fixed those issues. My problem now is that i just had my axle and wheel bearing fixed (my car moves smoother and quiet) my engine light came on again, it had not been on since, i read the codes and they are my speed sensor same as before but my car has not been shifting as it was in the past. Would this be because the sensor needs to be cleaned again or replaced, or because of my new replacements on my wheel.
Elantra XD (2001-06) :: Ignition Slips Into ACC While Driving
My 2002 Elantra GT has been turning off while driving. The radio, lights, and other accessories remain on. The car doesn't lurch but all of the dash lights come on like when you're first starting a car. I was able to restart the car after about 10 min the first time and 5 min the second time it happened. 1 week between episodes.
Brought it to the garage and they couldn't find a problem while letting it run for 30 min. Also, there are no error codes. What could be wrong?

This has been happening for awhile now. I will drive somewhere, distance isn't a problem, and then after I'm done, I'll go to start my car, and it won't start. It won't turn over or whatever the term is. The starter tries, but won't bite. Sometimes it will start and I can drive for a bit before it will die about a block or 2 later.

View 3 RepliesPassat (B6) :: 2007 - Intermittent Stutter Or Bucking While Driving?
I have an 07 6speed MT w/ 82K on the clock. Today it was snowing on the ride home and I noticed a few occasions where the car felt like it was bucking for just a split second. No warning lights came on at any time. The RPMs and speed never changed when it bucked. I was driving between 35 - 55 MPH when it was occurring in 3rd, 4th or 5th gear. No correlation to accelerating, decelerating, or coasting on highway that I could figure out.
Given that the snow was covering even the treated road surfaces, I suspected it might be connected to the ESP, so I turned it off for a while. Still happened.
I didn't notice any abnormal engine noises and it was fine on my ride to work in dry conditions earlier in the day.
I haven't had any work done on it recently and I am getting the 80K service done next week. It has no engine mods done at all. All stock.
Could it have been the tires slipping on wet spots? But happening so quickly the traction light never came on? Or should I look for other issues in the engine?
