The download I received was a complete waste of my money. Was not even close to what it was represented as. I thought I was getting a proper service repair manual. What I got was a collection of service bulletins. I sent an email to your company right after I looked through it requesting my money back. Have yet to hear a response. Terry Muich

It was much larger than i expected. 5 documents at 12k pages each. Its not something ill actually be able read but its easy enough to find what you need..
The Ford F250 manual is much easier to navigate at just over 8000 pages.
If i spend the money for Adobe Acrobat Professional ill be able to break it down into manageable bits.
Both manuals area great value for the money.

would rather have a maintenance manual. have a parts manual from parts vu company. only difference is that your parts manual has all together whereas the parts vu had to download the differsections individually.

Our original order was supposed to be for our 2014 Subaru Outback, yet the manual came up as Forester. We did have to purchase a new manual in order for them to send us the correct manual. We hope it will help us repair our Subaru.

  • 1.6L inline-four (97 cu in) — DOHC, turbocharged, gasoline

Body styles covered

Known issues on the 2019 Kona. One recall is on federal record for this model year, and it lands on the engine: Hyundai recalled certain 2019 Konas equipped with the 2.0L Nu MPI engine over the piston oil rings. A damaged engine may stall, increasing the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 233 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 81 technical service bulletins.

Whether the job is a stall diagnosis on the 2.0L or scheduled service on the 1.6L turbo, this manual puts Hyundai’s own procedure and the correct 2019 Kona specification in front of you.

NHTSA #21V30100028/04/2021Component: ENGINE

Hyundai Motor America (Hyundai) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Elantra, 2019-2021 Kona and Veloster vehicles equipped with 2.0L Nu MPI engines. The piston oil rings may not have been properly heat-treated, which could result in engine damage.

Consequence

A damaged engine may stall, increasing the risk of a crash. In addition, oil may leak onto hot exhaust components, increasing the risk of a fire.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the engine, free of charge. In addition, Hyundai will deploy Piston Ring Noise Sensing System (PNSS) software. Owner notification letters were mailed August 24, 2021. Owners may contact Hyundai customer service at 1-855-371-9460.

Your website states I am not in a recall but indeed I have been under recall 302, now 974, and another one currently. The dealers have lied and falsified records.

This is my 2nd Hyundai Kona - the first had slippage in the DCT (dual clutch transmission) which the dealer adjusted for me. It continued to happen if I accelerated quickly and was part of the reason I traded it in. The second had no issues until 115k miles at which point the DTC smelled bad once, then sounded bad the next day. I called the dealer and made an appointment to have it inspected/evaluated and it died minutes later, before I got it to them. Online forums state that while there ha
