They said: do not buy Korean cars, they fall apart.
They said: do not buy a small turbo, they disintegrate right away.
They said: do not buy a DCT, they don't survive 80k.
This 2016 vitamin D VT answers: nope.
(I couldn't snap a picture at exactly 120k, but this is pretty good, too, I think!)
I've always wanted to put projectors headlights in my Veloster and finally did it, after many years of having this bad boy.

Hi everybody im new to this subreddit,
I have a base gen 1 veloster and have noticed that my gas milage has been worsening rapidy ever since hitting 95,000 miles. I'm eternally on eco mode and even with that every 2 minutes that I glance down at my tank it lowers by like 5 miles. Not sure if this is just common aging or if there can be anything done to improve milage.
Hey yall.
Heavily considering picking up a ‘19 Turbo 6-speed. Clean history, no major work done. About 50k miles. I don’t know anything about these cars but I’m planning to use it as a commuter; I commute about 80 miles round trip daily.
Reliable as a comfortable daily? Anything I need to watch out for?
I currently daily either a high mileage Jag or a 40 year old truck. Both have their faults and I’m looking for something relatively trouble-free to commute in. Give me the good, bad and ugly.
Thanks!
So while in low RPMs, even while idling, my car feels like it wants to backfire. It's get a little jerky and there's a lag in throttle response. It isn't until I get to around 2k RPM, when the car accelerates. I recently replaced the sparkplugs and ignition coils to fix a misfire on cylinder 2. I had about ¼ tank of gas and after I filled it, it was acting fine. Im thinking it couldve been bad gas or the fuel pump is about to take a crap on me since the car is almost at 191k miles. Im curious to see if anyone has had the same problem and what was done to fix the issue.
Can anyone help me with some links of where I can find a shift knob like this that’s tall that fits the original spring loaded for the reverse
I notice after work my temperature gauge was empty when I went to crank my car and warm up (it’s about 93° outside at 3pm) I got in went up the road and everything was normal 10 mins later I get to my in-laws to pick up my son and I park in the garage leave my car running and go inside to get my son I come back out and my temperature gauge is full to H and a temp light is on but my A/C is kind of warm as well, I get situated and take off back down the road and within a few minutes my gauge has dropped back down to normal (about halfway) I run in a store real quick jump back in and head home and everything’s normal just curious if anyone else has experienced anything similar. 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo 70K miles
it looks awesome! installed a spoiler and hood, alibaba method works👌
My current car is on it's last legs. Auto transmission is about to fail, so I've been looking for something reasonably reliable, reasonably cheap, and a little fun for a new daily/beater.
I had originally wrote off these as the engine issues worry me, but a dealer near me has one for sale for a good price, 2013 manual with only 45k miles. With it being NA and low miles, would this be less likely to have said issues, or is this a little too suspicious. It does have atleast some minor body damage, but It'd be easy enough for me to fix.

My rubber seals are melting off my car.
How do I remove this gross old stuff? (its getting on everything)
Do I need to buy the rubber seal or can I just get weather stripes?
Do I need to remove the door paneling to get it off?

i recently did a pull and i noticed the traction control light blinked during it, after i hit the breaks, a small amount of smoke came from this area for about 2 seconds. After i parked, there was a little smell that didn’t last long. I went to grab pizza and when i parked i noticed the same smell for a bit. Is it bad and worth checking? Thank you all! 🙏
Just got a 2017 at like 180k miles I love it but I know the engine probably won’t last much longer any idea on the cost to get a replacement engine and installed
Rare occasion of both being (mostly) clean at the same time!
I recently got my carbon fiber hood shipped in and i’m not taking any chances without hood pins, only issue is i have no clue where to put them so they can really anchor into the car. please help
2012 Hyundai Veloster manual. Push-button start. Dash comes on normally, clutch depressed, pressing START gives one click but the starter doesn't crank. Replaced key fob battery but made no difference. Car bump-starts immediately and runs normally. Drove it for three hours with no problem, switched it off, tried starting it again and it still wouldn't crank.
Any ideas what's at fault and what are estimated repair costs before I get ripped off?
Is anybody running this body kit? Could you post some pictures with fitment specs? Did you have to cut if so how much? I know everyone runs the fiberglass mafia bodykit but I wanted something more subtle.
