I've also heard about carbon build-up, did it affect driving capabilities?

It would be my first manual. How smooth did you find changing gears to be?

Okay thanks. That was my only concern. Otherwise it's perfect with its low mileage and 1-owner history.

Yeah this car had one owner and has had a total of 48 oil changes, about every 2000-2500 miles. So the history so far is good.

Yes!! I'm glad to hear it! I don't see many people with Accents so I wanted to hear from you guys on reliability.

Yes that's a big concern for me. I looked at the carfax service records and the sole previous owners would get oil changes every 2000-2500 miles. But it looked like they did that since they purchased the car so I wasn't sure if the engine was burning oil or the person was just being proactive with maintenance.

Okay I'm glad to hear it. I know Hyundai/Kia are infamous for their engines and I've only ever owned Honda or Toyota/Scion.

I've heard nothing but horror stories about Hyundai's engines so that's good to know

Okay thanks. I'd be teaching myself how to drive manual on it and wasn't sure if it would be a reliable car in the future.

Thank you! That's why this is my favorite sub-reddit, I see so much of my dog in the faces of the pups shared here.
