Question edited for clarity and full 'year make model'.
Question moved to correct category.
Did you disconnect the battery when you did that work. That would mean the security needs to be reset. They seem to have a history of not starting though!!
Don't let the car run out of gas. Fill the tank and run until the tank is half empty. Again fill the tank.
By driving until you run out of gas, you are letting sediments/dirt collected in the bottom of the tank to enter the engine. Rather they will block the fuel filter. Then gas will not reach the engine.
Clean the gas filter and your car will run fine.
The same advice again. Don't drive until the tank becomes empty.
This sounds like you have a bad cam sensor. This is a common issue on most cars, and the when the sensor goes out completely you will not be able to crank the car w/out replacing it. What you are experiencing is like a warning, letting you know that it needs to be replaced. The part can be picked up at any auto parts store, and you may save some money if you buy it on line. Installation is easy as well.
They were frozen the first time you tried them. You could have blown a fuse. The spray worked because you have the antifreeze fluid it the tank. So try the fuse first.
you should have took it back first time ,the fault is to do with the control unit inside the gearbox ,its electrically operated and the manufacturer does not sell spares for the internals of an auto box ,so its an exchange gearbox complete ,a right rip off as far as i am concerned ,take it to another dealer out of town and dont tell them about changing the oil,
The problem you describe has many possible causes. Any number of engine management sensors (which are starting to go bad) can cause this problem, the fuel pump is starting to go bad, the engine computer, wiring, connectors, etc.. the list goes on and on. My experience tells me to tell you to take the vehicle into a Hyundai Service Center and try to get it diagnosed. If successful, they'll give you an estimate of repairs (parts, labor, tax, time-frame, etc.). This way you'll know exactly what's wrong and what's required to fix it. Now, since the problem is 'INTERMITTENT', that makes it tough for the technician unless he/she can discover any DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Codes) stored in the computer (ECM - Engine Control Module) - Did the 'Check Engine" light ever come ON? If so, this will help narrow the search and diagnosis.
