This is Kip it turns out checking blogs about my cars problem helped me at the dealer I only had 79000 miles on it and the blogs said a design flaw in the valve cover baffle was the problem the dealers service writer politely said he didn't think so. But the more they checked there hot line adviser said what I tried to tell them about the valve cover design flaw in the baffle long story short my 10 year 100,000 mile warrenty paid off. The problem was covered under warrenty and I drove away with a new valve cover and gasket a Pcv valve and hoses to boot. When I need another car I will go back to the Hyundai dealer and buy another Hyundai from them and the service Dept said the blogs were correct. The problem has stopped. Happy customer Kip

Jingle SolvedSolved

2009 Hyundai Accent 63000 miles
Hello, buddies, I want to share the problem I have with my Hyundai Accent Vision 1.6 A/T 2009 and hope someone can guide me. After changin the oil, filter and distribution kit, I started noticing a jingle in the engine when reaching 2000 rpm, and even stronger when driving along an uphill road. Spark plugs, refrigerant and detonation sensor were changed and both the throttle body and the injectors were cleaned, but the problem persists, even though I only use 92 octanes fuel, the right one for this car. When scanning it, there is no failure indicated, just as when a compression and leakage test is made. What other reason might there be causing the jingle in this specific vehicle? Hope you can give me a hand, thank you.

Buddy, how long is it since the last time you cleaned the fuel tank and pump filter? It is of no use to clean the injectors and everything else if your tank is full of mud. You should as well check the spark plugs' wires to see whether there is some leakage there. At night, turn on the engine and look carefully if any of the wires is sparking. Finally, check that the coil sends enough electrical current.

Hello, alfy, thank you very much for your response. The last thing I've done to my car was checking the tank's state, fuel pump and filter but everything was found in perfect conditions. After that, the IAC valve was cleaned and, after all this, when driving it yesterday, revolutions were over 5000 per minute for some minutes in 3rd (O/D Off) but no jerking nor jingling have appeared. I suppose that the problem had something to do with some cinder that was producing the pre-ignition.

Engine sound

2010 Hyundai Accent Sedan 111000 miles
Every morning while driving to work I hear a ticking sound from the engine, when the engine warms up the sound slowly goes away.
Other times when the engine is throttling I hear the same ticking sound. I tried to listen where the sound is coming from and it sounds like its coming from one of the sensors on the intake manifold, the one closest to the throttle body. Help please
