Can SUCK IT!!
Well my 06 Sonata 3.3 V6 has been trouble free up til now (80Kmi) On my way back from Florida the SES light popped on comin through TN.
As I got closer to home the SES started to flash (misfire as I later learned) So I take to Advance Auto to have the codes read: P0300,P0303,P0305,P0134.
they said it needed a tune up so I purchased some NGK iridium IX (part#5464) and installed them one weekend in about 3 hours.
The car drove fine for about 2 days and the SES came on again, this time I called the Hyundai service to drop the car off.
They called and told me it was throwing a mis fire code and a bad o2. They wanted to replace the plugs at the tune of $385 I told them "HELL TO DA NAW!!" I had replaced them a week ago. There reply was "Did you buy the plugs from US?!" I said "no" they then stated that the SES would come back on unless I used their plugs.
I was like WTH is the difference they are the same brand/type plug??
The o2 was covered under warranty but of course they had to charge me $118 for diagnosing I needed plugs and a lower radiator hose which were NOT under warranty.
So I leave the stealership get about 5 minutes away and sure as shit the SES comes back on so I headed straight for Advance to check for codes.
Now P0031 pops up?? I told the guy to clear the code drive home SES is off start the car up before work and the DAMN SES is on again, same code.
I guess my question is should I take the car back to the dealer and tell them WTF!! Take it somewhere else? It's obvious it's NOT the spark plugs I put in
