Hey all I have a 2019 Elantra Gt N-line. Recently i put on a axle back exhaust for some better noise and less exhaust restriction. This helps in alot of cruising aspects but It has also helped me notice an issue with the car more clearly.
So my car has had a roughl idle and hard start up since almost brand new (cranks and cranks and cranks then starts) but with the muffler delete i can now hear what the exhaust sounds like when its crusing at low speed. It basicly sounds like a popcorn machine popity popity popity popity soon as my foot leaves the gas peddle. I have also noticed a few times it backfires. it almost feels like the engine is getting way to much gasoline or a cylinder is miss firing. cause out of the blue i was going in my garage like i normaly do and the car idled all the way down my parking garage with out a single popcorn sound and a silky smooth idle.
My car only has 16000 km on it now and so far has not made me feel any strong feelings about its reliability. my gas milege is horendous at 11L per 100 km and has been so since i bought the vehicle. any ideas what i can do I already been hosed by the dealer for nearly 1000$ at this point trying to get the car fixed. Also to note i recently felt something pop in my front end and have had issues keeping the vehicle in a straight line since then. happened while i was driving around a corner at 40km hr. Day one i felt a pop as well and had alot of vibration since then now its much much worse and i cannot figure out what is causing it. Car has had 3 brand new sets of wheels and rims multiple re-balances and 2 alignments to no availe at solving that issue. I have personalty checked all my front and back control arms bushings and ballpoints and can't figure out what is causing the issue. To note the car periodically is hard to steer in to the right to the point i need two hands to turn me while. happens at random speeds and often is worse while braking to t point braking causes the car to turn on its own sharply. some times left some times right more times right then others.
any info would be appreciative and helpful
