    Hello,

    My Dutch Hyundai EXCEL 1,3L has a very strange electronical problem,
    which occurs regularly, but more often since a week :cry: .

    During the ride the engine starts to vibrate more than normally (maybe
    due to inefficient combustion????), whereafter the CHECK ENGINE light
    is displayed. The problem recently occured sometimes without the CHECK
    ENGINE light going on as well.

    Then suddenly all power flows away, till the speed is near zero, and
    after that the engine suddenly starts to run at maximum revs. During
    this whole process the engine doesn’t at all react on the accelerator.


    The Hyundai dealer tried to remedy the problem by replacing the
    crankshaft position sensor, because that had happened to be a weak
    part of the EXCEL-series. The repair didn’t help.

    Do you know a solution :idea: ?

    Sounds like your transmission is slipping. Did the dealer check for
    trouble codes? I would think that there would be something stored since
    the check engine lamp came on. If so, what codes did they find?
