My heat and air only works when I am driving down
It may be the valve that controls the amount of water entering heating core but I'm wondering if your engine thermostat isn't stuck open. This is what controls the coolant temperature in your engine. It closes off while engine is off. It will remain closed after you start your car until the water warms to a certain temperature then it starts to open enough to keep your car at the proper operating temperature. If it stick open then it will take a lot longer for the engine to heat up and on smaller cars might never heat up enough for your heater. If you live in very cold climates such as where I live in Wyoming, we have to change to a higher degree thermostat so we have a good heater when it's 30 below zero.
Be very cautious here but one way you can check this is to put a piece of cardboard in front of your radiator and stop the airflow that cools your engine coolant. THIS WILL CAUSE YOUR CAR TO HEAT UP AND CAN CAUSE ENGINE DAMAGE IF IT OVERHEATS. Don't completely cover the radiator but if your heater warms up when you put the cardboard in front of radiator it's a good sign that your thermostat is stuck open and needs to be replaced.
How to replace the rear passenger window in a 2006
Here I expect that the repair is a consequence of an accident or act not covered by Hyundai guaranty, unless limited millage has been overpassed, otherwise consult your dealer to have it done no fees.
If youy have to do it by yourself, remove door trim. To do that, with a small screwdriver, remove finition caps over or under arm rest unveiling bolts or srews . Remove bolts or screws that you will see.
Unsnap the internal pannel pulling the bottom first and then the middle of the pannel.
At this step if it's still tight to pull check for any forgetten bolts or screw.
Then the internal pannel should be hanged only by its to at the bottom of the window. Just pull upward the panel from its track applying medium force shacking the pannel.
At this step you will have to disconnect any wire connectors: electric window control if equipped, courtest light, and so and so...
Once the trim is removed, with a light check the internal mecanism. Basically, you should have two vertical window track one to each extremity with a kind of X mecanism in between including gear track.
You should detect how to unbolt the track retaining the bottom of your glass. Once this track is unbolted, probably/maybe you will have to remove the external finishing trim at the bottom of the window (just pressed) to give you some room to operate)
Sorry if my procedure is not 100% accurate. Here is an ex bodyshop man speaking. More than 90% of models follow the same very similar removal process with some very light adjustments.
Unless you own a $100,000 car don't be afraid to shake panel or track. You will not break anything. Just take care to avoid external damage to your car paint.
Hope it will help.

Error code p1529
P1529 is generated by the Transmission Control Module (TCM). It is simply to tell the ECM to turn on the MIL/Check Eng light because the TCM detected a malfunction and has set a DTC in the TCM.
On top of the tranny, by the selector lever, there is the range switch. Disconnect, clean therminals, add some dielectric gears to the terminals, and reconnect. Disconnect negative battery terminal for 30+ sec., reconnect terminal, drive car and see if MIL come on again
