    had my 2006 elantra done this year for about the same - $250 or so. It
    was bundled with some other work so I don't have the breakdown handy.


    I will also go back the the point that he needs to check his warranty
    and get a better explanation. It may well be time. If he only has
    14000 on in in 4 years driven every day he is beating the car to a
    slow death. It's either heavy traffic or he is not staying on long
    enough to burn out the water and other assorted nastiness. Either way
    is hard on the engine.

    Okay. I understand. The slave cylinder is a 5/60 component. As such i
    was no longer within the warranty period at 68k. If you complained abou
    the issue prior to the warranty expiring, I think Hyundai should hav
    eaten the whole repair, but that's just *my* opinion. On the up side
    they did at least contribute to the repair outside the warranty period

  3. How many of those other manufacturers warrant the car for 100,000 miles?
    They use the same belt, but since they are not liable for replacement of the
    engine they don't give a damn if you blow the engine. Gates makes most of
    the belt used in the industry but there may be others.

    My Nissan 300Z requires a timing belt change every 60,000 miles too....

    Most vehicles with timing belts require it around those years and miles.

    Don't buy a GM, Ford, Chrysler, Honda, Toyota, Nissan or BMW either then,
    because when we get handles and mouldings, they are just raw plastic without
    any primer, and their prep proceedures are to just scuff and shoot them.

    Bullshit, because I worked in the auto industry, and we either shot all
    plastic with a primer ( white black or yellow to name a few) according to
    final paint code.
