Garage to Garage

Well, I have been away from this forum for a while. Lots been happening here..lol.

Anyways, I was in the process of fixing my car. The problem of my car having 'intermittent starting problems' was just getting worse. I went to Hyundai dealers to check the code for CEL light checked. It said check alternator/alternator needs to be repaired. I went to a garage and they told me it was not the alternator. If the alternator was faulty, my car wudnt start . But as I said, it did sometimes, so they ruled out that probability. But they came up with something called coolant temperature sensor that was faulty. They told me to change it. But then they changed their mind and told me that the crank angle shaft sensor was faulty and needs to be repaired. I went to an auto electrician to check it, but he didnt find anything wrong with the CrankAngle sensor. But he came up with problems in fuel pump( as suggested by duke, i guess). he hooked a gauge to the fuel system to check for the fuel pressure. But it worked well. The car didnt play in front of him. He kept trying for like 2 days, but nothing went wrong. I mean the car started everytime he tried to. And for the CEL light, he changed the faulty Coolant Temperature sensor which did the work for me. well , as of now, the car starts good, have no problems yet( just got the car back from garage).
Hopefully, the car goes on good at least for another year or so.

Cheers,
Raj.

PS. I was almost done with selling the car( I bought it like 2 weeks back). The guys had 3 test drives. and they were ready to make the payment last night. But they called off the deal at the very last moment. Well, theres always next time..
