Introduction

This wiki is an ever-growing handbook that will work to answer questions or address concerns for Hyundai Tucson & Kia Sportage owners.

All of the information provided here is collected from the members of the TucsonDrivers/Sportagedrivers forums. If you have any problems or questions, feel free to either PM Redux on the forums, or send an e-mail to admin{at}tucsondrivers.com

Please note that links that look like this below (and the majority of them do) are links to a DIY that another member has posted on the forum. Clicking the link will send you to that particular post on the forum where you can read or leave feedback & post questions.
