IIRC, Hyundai makes their own engines and transmissions *now*, but earlier (late 80's-mid 90's), some of their cars used engines and transmissions that were designed by Mitsubishi and may have been Mitsubishi-manufactured. I don't know the details; I wasn't that interested in Hyundai cars until ~2002. Details/cites/whatever from people who know more about the engines/transmissions used in earlier Hyundai models would be appreciated. Seamus, it might help if you were a little more verbose in asking your original question. Why do you want to know who makes the engines and transmissions? Reliability? Servicing of an older car? If we knew that, we might be able to tell you more useful info, or something. http://catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html is snarky and abrasive, but it's a good guide to asking good questions on Usenet and getting good answers.

Re: their engines and transmissions
I've recently read that in the Santa Fe 's the transmission is perhaps made
by Hyundai but is a design by Porche and their AWD is from Acura...perhaps someone else could confirm or dispute this? -- Order the new "Accordion Evolution" video or DVD http://users.accesscomm.ca/limbery/ "Bob" <fweem1974@yahoo.com> wrote in message news:6d6dnWGLkbQ1kZXfRVn-2g@giganews.com... > Seamus J.

If Hyundai got anything from them they managed to f- it up pretty badly by the time it made it into any of their cars. |
Re: their engines and transmissions
I could not have posed a simpler question.

No, the tranny is not a Porsche design and AFAIK they don't design automatic transmissions. The AWD system design and/or the actual hardware is either from the former Steyr-Daimler-Puch or BorgWarner. > -- > Order the new "Accordion Evolution" video or DVD > http://users.accesscomm.ca/limbery/ > "Bob" <fweem1974@yahoo.com> wrote in message > news:6d6dnWGLkbQ1kZXfRVn-2g@giganews.com... > > Seamus J.

Re: their engines and transmissions
Hi, Seamus.
What Bob has requested is that you follow net etiquette ("netiquette") to make it easier for people to understand the thread. He's asked you to post your addition to a previous post at the bottom instead of at the top. Personal emailing is casual, and people (including myself) often top-reply. In that case, the other party already knows what he sent -- he's got the context in his head, and you're just firing off a quick answer -- and a grunt can do fine between two friends. In this case, you're in a public forum, so other people can zero in better if they can follow what you're quoting from top-down. The other thing to consider is that the newsgroup service that some people use, usually provided by their ISP, may toss an earlier post. So, carrying relevant parts of a thread above your addition will give everyone a shot at the context. This is especially true if you're replying after a few days have passed. On the other hand, large quotes get unwieldy when the thread becomes long, and it's a good idea to clip out a lot of what's come before in such a case. In this post, I've eliminated everything from the previous thread because I'm following up on an aside. It's the poster's call as to how to write. However, the guiding beacon should always be to put oneself in the _reader's_ shoes and write clearly so that the other person doesn't have to work hard to understand you. Regarding HTH's request that you provide more "meat" in your question, I can't agree. I think that he wanted to a bit more context, since there's some intersting history that he can provide regarding Hyundai's engines. This may be similar to an explanation of how Yamaha got from making pianos to making motorcycles and stereo equipment, and OE CD drive components. Korean corporate histories are probably full of interesting information like this, and probably family intrigue and infighting as well: corporate soap operas. I feel that your question was clear, and an appropriate answer, I think, would have been the first one that you got. I hope that I've been clear, and I also hope that I've gotten the names of your responders correct -- I have a real hard time keeping people's "handles" and names straight. In fact, it's become too difficult for me, and I just wing it. At this point, I'd prefer that everyone just use the names that their parents gave them, and stop with the handles altogether. Richard |
