Question 1

What does a starter motor do?

Accepted Answer

The starter motor is the component responsible for turning over or ‘cranking’ the engine to start the car. Without a functioning starter motor, it’s not possible to start a car by using the ignition alone. The starter motor is a key component of a smooth running vehicle. 
When you press the ignition to start the vehicle a charge is taken from the battery and used to start the engine.

Question 2

How often should you replace your starter motor?

Accepted Answer

Your starter motor is working every time to use the ignition to start the vehicle. This can be even more depending on if you have start-stop technology in your car and the configuration of that system.  This is because coolant constantly cycles through to prevent overheating, which means you need to be careful with the signs of a malfunctioning radiator as it is an essential part of your cooling system. This being said, a damaged or leaking car radiator should be replaced immediately.

Question 3

Accepted Answer

Question 4

What are the symptoms of a malfunctioning starter motor?

Accepted Answer

Usually, there a few signs you can look for: 
If the 'Check Engine' warning light is on.
When trying to start the car you hear a ‘clicking noise’. 
When trying to start the car you hear a grinding or whirring noise this may signify issues with your starter motor.
When trying to start the car you hear a buzzing noise, which indicates not enough electricity is getting to the starter motor.

Accepted Answer

Question 7

Well-priced luxury cars with a fantastic warranty

Accepted Answer

Predominantly producing an extensive range of smart looking hatchback cars of quality and price to compete with Ford, Vauxhall and Volkswagen, perhaps their rising sales figures can be partly put down to holding one of the best warranties for a new car in the business.Their 5-year, unlimited-mileage warranty offers the peace of mind any new car owner would be thrilled to receive, given that most marques only offer 3 years with around 60k miles of cover.Hyundai doesn’t solely offer a range of varying hatchback models; the current full line-up features tourers, coupes and of course, as the leading trend in today’s market, a selection of SUV models of varying sizes, trims and price tags.

It achieved its first top-10 result in the 2000 Rally Argentina and continued to finish well throughout the season, but not quite well enough to compete with the top 3 or 4 teams.In 2014, Hyundai made a return to world rallying after a 10-year absence, with the introduction of their i20 WRC; a rally car based on the i20 subcompact and was unveiled at the 2012 Paris Motor Show.

Question 10

Hyundai’s reliability and reputation

Accepted Answer
