I bought my 2006 Hyundai Getz just a couple of weeks ago. It had 87,000 km in the Odometer but when I took it in for servicing, there wasn't anything wrong with it. Still feels brand new. It just feels like a cheap but reliable and simple to use car.
In nz, I bought a manual 2008 1.4L Getz with 100000km on it with hail damage so it looks like a golf ball. cause of the hail damage I picked it up for $1250, and have done 80000km in it so far with zero big bills! been such a great reliable little car and the combination of manual and low power make it super fun around town.
I am going on a road trip in a 2006 Hyundai Getz, its got the original radio. Does the mp3 part of it mean that it will play mp3 audio cds? I don't wanna have to drive for 6 hours in silence.
@ one of the first things I did was replace the factory head unit so I could have Bluetooth. But to my understanding, that would mean it supports mp3 CD. Which is basically just a disc with a bunch of mp3s ripped onto it
@@devlinlynden I'm just borrowing the car so I certainly don't want to change the head unit. I replaced the head unit in my Toyota though. I don't think I've burnt a cd in a long time. Hope it works, then again maybe it has aux. Will see soon.
Here from my 2010 Kia Rio JB 1.4 petrol. Basically the same car with a ton of interchangeable parts. It's a dream to work on and service. Tons of space and simple design (no direct injection, turbos or intercoolers etc). The only real fix I've had to do is change the clutch slave cylinder due to water ingress under the rubber boot which led to pitting and pressure loss. My only personal gripe I have is the 1.4 g4ee petrol engine isn't the best motorway cruiser. 70mph is around 3200 rpm, a tad noisy.
Definitely looking at adding a JB to the Carshare fleet. Size and practicality plus they seem to be cheaper in manual guise especially than the equivalent Getz. Glad to hear you are liking yours, the Getz also cruised at 100km/h at 3000rpm and it was a bit on the noisy side. Economy was good though even with the noise.
Awesome little vehicle... NOT A COASTAL VEHICLE! Rust right down into the ground! Front Suspension Crossmember ( Subframe ) - Lower Control Arms - underneath the boot / trunk in the spare wheel area - rust very badly ... Regarding the engine with ( manual ) transmission it holds up pretty well ...
There's been a couple I have seen with that kind of rust, especially underneath on the front crossmember. If they are poorly repaired, especially if the accident happened when they were young, it exacerbates the problem.
Check the top of the intake manifold. On a SOHC Getz, that's where it is in the diagram. Alternatively, put your VIN into Partsouq or Catcar and the diagram will be there showing its exact location for your car as there were some minor changes mechanically between 2003-2005 model years cars and 2006-on cars (like the one in the video).
They don't have a temperature gauge unfortunately. They show cold temperature or hot temperature icons. Definitely an oversight there, especially if you have a dodgy thermostat.
Getz hasn't got a factory USB port, it would need to be an aftermarket solution either with the head unit or in the arm rest is another potential option
It is pretty good but the alternator is in a cun*t of a place to get at. Body work really good I have a 2006 1.1. The only problems were some rust on the rear hatch and rear wheel arches but easily fixed. Economical and pretty nippy for a 1.1 nice car to drive. The suspension is a bit spongy. Pretty OK space inside. The dome light is a total disaster take a torch into the car if you need to see anything at night. I have become quite fond of her she is called Candy.

@ from memory, my one didn’t have an aux but I might be wrong. Also any normal album cd will still work fine if you have any

Quality video.

I want to buy a manual 2009 SX and put a pod filter on it and a doof doof in the back
Yes to all you said. But in Denmark they rust.
Do they have immobiliser?
Factory immobiliser on the Getz was standard for Australian consumption.
Hi,where is the map sensor located in the 2004 getz 1.3? Thanks

I have a 2008 getz and you would think it would have a temperature gauge ?

@@turn6garage640 Funny when the engine is cold , the coolant light come on the dash but it’s red, thought it’s suppose to be blue when its cold ?
Where is the usb?
