Well from what I understand the VW GTI has a similar / same issue with the
fly by wire throttle. One of the guys at work has one and says it is because
of no mechanical linkage at all.

Maybe the newer Hyundais have flaky electrics, like the German cars of the
not-too-distant past. See my post on come- and-go intermittent wipers.

I've seen a couple with bad pumps. No wiring problems yet. If your
wipers
sweep when you activate the pump, you've already eliminated the switch
and
some of the wiring, as well as most of the entire power side of the
circuit. If the pump doesn't run, that eliminates the clog idea.

The bad news is that every so often, Hyundai gets a batch of bad parts.
The good news is that when they figure out they've got an issue, they
adress it. And trust me, that is almost always faster than five people
coming together on usenet figuring out they've all had the same problem.


Too bad this does not apply for all cases or maybe they would have
addressed the engine whine instead of making me go to a hearing on the
matter. I have to say I am very disappointed in Hyundai in thier attitude
on this.

Actually, I've heard it that way, but for the most part people around here
say it the way I typed it. I don't really know why, because your way makes
more sense.
