Morning @Bob.W ,

Glad your issue is finally sorted (we hope) but commiserations on your bad day and hopefully the court case judgement is the right one.
Hyundai service departments can also be their own special kind of hell and I'm still recovering from my last issue of failed spark plugs.

I was unable to read any parts of the invoice (excellent redacting), so was wondering if the DCT, or other, firmware was re-applied and/or upgraded? I know the ABS ECU/Motor unit also has firmware and was wondering last night if that may also be a possible fix, not that Hyundai would ever admit to that.  :lol:
Was the $496 for the 2 hours labour and the wheel speed sensor?

I previously checked my front wheel speed sensors but never got around to the rear ones. I will try and find some free time today to inspect/test the rear ones with a multi meter (should be a simple voltage increase when wheel/hub is rotated) and report back. Failing that, I may just bite the bullet and buy one from the wreckers near my mechanic.
Funny the scans by my mechanic didn't pick up the wheel speed sensor, but I also believe that those can't be tested unless the car is actually in motion, and he only ran tests on my car while it was stationary.

@TerryT , hopefully your car listens as mine is like a 4 year old in a candy store.


Thanks again BobW and hopefully your outcome, albeit expensive, helps the rest of us sorting out our issues. I will also keep everyone updated with my findings, and hopefully a fix too.

Hi Bob, just saw your post yesterday.  Sounds you had one of those "bend over, touch your knees and try not to cry" days.

As a result, I had a stern talk to my car's left rear wheel speed sensor. ;)

EDIT: I have now realised that this is page 2 of this thread and I seemed to have missed the lot?  No matter, as after having a very quick read of the earlier posts I have nothing new to contribute.

The original key fob, key part snapped and I had to get a new key made. I no longer have the original fob. I only have a spare key with no fob. It's been around 7 months no issues until couple of days ago.
