    Only two cds I own will play all of the time. Others will for different amounts of time, then display "ERROR 43" and stop, others will just display "ERROR 43" from the start. I only just started having this problem a few months ago. How can I fix it?

Remove the starter motor and check for damage/wear on the teeth of the starter motor and the ring gear teeth on the flywheel.turn the engine by hand while checking the ring gear so as to check the condition all the way around.hope this helps

MT hyundai elantra is making a grinding noise when starting, new starter was instaled.

Sometimes starters come from the factory with shims to make sure there is correct clearance between the starter drive gear and the flywheel, have the person who installed check to see if there was a shim or shims on the old one and wether they put on shims on the new one.

Grinding noise when making right turns.

CV joint. Take/Tow your vehicle to an authorized Hyundai dealership and pay the diagnostic fee... they will tell you exactly what the problem is and the cost of parts/labor to fix it... at least this way you'll know what the problem is and what's required to fix it.

2002 Hyundai Elantra not starting intermittently

The whirring sound is more than likely your fuel pump. Give it a few seconds to build up pressure before cranking or have the pump replaced.

2000 hyundai elantra starts when it wants to

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.

Accelerated clicking/knocking noise when i start driving

sounds like your CV joints are worn out. If the clicking noise gets worse when turning then its a definite possibility. Also check the CV joint boots for splits as this can quickly wear them out. The dust mixes with the grease to form a grinding paste.
