Should You Buy 2 Years Old Hyundai Kona?

Should I buy a 2-year old Hyundai Kona?

Hello everyone, today I will introduce the Hyundai Kona that was purchased after 2 years of use.

First of all I will check the glue just to see if it is peeling due to an accident or not, with the naked eye we can see, look at the joints, the glue stains are still intact even though the car is dirty, unpainted retouch affects the frame roar. (Experience when test driving Hyundai Kona Turbo What does it feel like?)

As for the lights, if there is a collision, the lights must be replaced, but I still see the speckled scratches on the lights, maybe they have not been replaced but still look very clear, the headlights are also low, so the gravel and dust fly in. is a matter of course.

Now we will try engine see if it's round or not about my photosensitive, it's very round and smooth, no abnormal vibration frequency occurs when listening, the fan sound is also quite round, the motor vibrates evenly too much jerking, all the Kona wires aren't too jerky it's still very even with no misalignment, this bike doesn't interfere with the hardware too much and it looks great.

The rims look good around, this car is very well preserved, about the tire if you look closely, the tire is also slightly worn with many cracks. The area of ​​the door button, the door lock is still working well, if the door is not closed tightly, it is likely to be broken or disassembled or something, if the rubber inside will also be oxidized, it will not. It's quiet, the back door is still very few people sitting. 

We go out later to see how the lights are, look at the lights are still very clear, the trunk is still very smooth, if the trunk crashes, you will know immediately, if you are careful, remove the plastic sheet to check the stains thread is still in good condition with no glue to show that the back part has not been pierced, it is still very good, close the door tightly. In short, to the naked eye, looking at the engine, listening to the engine and everything seems to be very good.

Now we will go inside to see how the features are, almost 2 years of use, entering the interior compartment, the steering wheel is also rhymed, so it is not half-smooth the leather on the steering wheel is quite glossy. but not too shiny it's still very matte, specifically this car runs for 4 thousand 9km, the electric seats in all directions are still good with full lights, the air conditioner is still cool and cool relatively quickly, it's fine, looking at the interior compartment is also very clean, still very solid, the sunroof is still very smooth.

Now let's go and see how it works, the first feeling is to feel the stiffness, I don't think it's too flabby or bouncy, the suspension is still good, the shock is still reasonable, the legs are high. The shock absorber rubber is still good I think the connections are good, this 1.6 turbo engine is very powerful but on a small body like this, the steering wheel is still standard, unharmed, the car 2 years, 5 km but still going very well, the engine and gearbox is still cool, the Kona 1.6 in the segment is not as good as the 1.6 turbo engine, the tires are relatively old but the chassis is still solid the chassis going into corners like this is still very solid, this car is actually very durable, now we go on a bumpy road that is difficult to test, the chassis is still very solid so there is no sudden change What happened to the chassis, I like the ruggedness and stubbornness of this Kona right after 2 years of use, 5 is still very new, going through some bad roads it will be fine.

In terms of normal inspection from someone who has experience with me, the Kona after 1 years of use and 2 is still very good. I should take the car to a workshop to check if the things that can't be seen with the naked eye, but only a new expert can learn is more reasonable. (Service reference Issue and renew driving licenses for prestigious cars and motorbikes in Ho Chi Minh City).

Now we go to the factory to check it out and then it's easier to decide, waiting for you guys to check to see what the truth is that we can't see with our naked eyes. All systems are very good, but the tire is a bit bad and needs to be replaced otherwise it will make a lot of noise. Oil, water and air filters need to be changed to keep the engine running properly.

After 5 for the Kona line, there is no problem, the rubber base has not been oxidized yet. When checking in the workshop, there is no increase in the steering wheel after 2 years of use, mainly periodically change the oil and oil, if anyone is careful, change the tires to be smooth, after 2 years of use, nothing has been damaged. . For me Hyundai Kona after 2 years of use is still very good.
