Took my EN in today for part of the free basic maintenance (oil change, tire rotation, and inspection) had my son with me we went around lunch so he was hungry when we left. I noticed a faint smell of oil when we parked at McDonald's but didn't think much of it because ya know some times small spills happen. On my way further home I saw some smoke coming from my front passenger side so again I say it's probably oil but I'm going to pull over and check. Low and behold they didn't put my oil cap back on. I will be going back tomorrow to have them detail my car now (pictured is exactly how everything was when I popped the hood....

Btw on the issues with button mapping everyone should go complain to their local dealer it's the only way it's going to get fixed by corporate.

Brought my car in for some standard maintenance, asked them to put my woosh titanium oil drain plug on and they exclaimed that it would void my warranty. I laughed quite a bit and said this plug is better quality than the OEM plug and legally you cant void my warranty over something like an oil drain plug unless you can prove that it caused a failure which it won't unless there's an off chance it's a crappy plug and causes a leak over time. I'm only here for the free maintenance I genuinely hate dealerships.

Wondering if anyone has picked this up yet and how it sounds?

CP-E has made some good high quality parts over the years, they make a solid downpipe for the Elantra N. I asked them if they would make me or planned on making an exhaust for the Elantra N (I think it's odd they make a downpipe but not an exhaust) they explicitly said "At this time we do not have plans for an Elantra N catback. We have some other projects in the pipeline but if we continue to get more requests for an Elantra N catback we can make adjustments" personally I'm looking for an aftermarket exhaust that sounds good a deep throaty tone that's not overly raspy and loud CP-E are the guys to do it. So anyone who hasn't gotten an exhaust yet and plans to in the future chime in so we can get one made and have a full setup.

A guy at my work rocks an S1000 it's a dope bike walking in this morning I saw he had gotten it wrapped so I figured I'd pop on here and show it I think it turned out pretty cool.

So I picked this up seeing as we don't have the drive mode selection in that location and Hyundai chose to make it a blank panel instead of implementing the newer screens it fits well no white indices to be seen this thing is well built for phone mounting, super strong and is adjustable. It's well built the orange frame is metal and only about 20 dollars (us) I do wish chubby cable made these in different colors like PB or a nice Red to match the exterior but the orange makes a bit of a statement. Now all I need is a magnetic sunglasses holder that's in alcantara with PB stitching. Also note could definitely use one of these for filming with your phone. Link below if you wanna pick one up.

All of a sudden!

Edit forgot to include the intake comes with a velocity stack which I'm sure alot of people don't know about.

This passed Friday I installed a GFB BOV/Recirculating valve and a K&N intake. So far on my 25 DCT I can report that there has been no check engine light for the intake I've driven the car 3 days since (main reason for the post). The pic is from before I did this next step but I did attempt to refit the OE ram air portion of the factory intake. I did manage to get the first piece that bolts to the bumper/ pins down the air box portion with some slight trimming but the larger piece that actually snaps into the air box wasn't able to be fitted due to how sharp the K&N heat shield cuts in from that area. Plan now is to find someone who has a 3D printer and make a bell mouth attachment that will help bring more outside air to the filter.

​

The portion of the heat shield that's closest to the front bumper does hang down ever so slightly which is where alot of the coolant hose contact is. The fix for this is drilling a hole taking the ram air portion off putting a rivnut or 2 into the heat shield through the plastic piece to tie it all together.

​

Also I will be running the weather stripping again I didn't have a razor blade on hand to make a super clean cut so I used my wire snips. Fortunately K&N gives you enough to run the stripping twice with some extra. So if you go rough on your first pass you can run it again cleaner.

Us update being pushed is it safe or should I wait? Just want to be sure before I run it!
