Consumer Review Video - 2000 Hyundai Sonata GLS 2.5L V6

Common problems and easy repairs on a 2000 Sonata

The 2000 Hyundai Sonata GLS is a moderately easy car to repair. The tail lights are easily accessible behind a small cover in the trunk. The large engine bay also allows many things to be accessed without hassle, including the oil dipstick. Changing the wiper blades is also very easy on this vehicle.

On the other hand, some things on this 2000 Hyundai Sonata GLS are more tedious to maintain. The cabin air filter is pretty complicated to access, as you need to remove the glove box in order to get to it. Checking the coolant level is a bit more difficult due to it being tucked deep in the engine bay. Likewise, the interior fuses are in a hard-to-access spot beneath the steering wheel.
