Hyundai Getz 2006, 1.4 liter, 5-speed Manual, Fan car, Up Genting /YS Khong Driving

Today's video is about how any car can be fun in its own little way - in this case it's a 1.4 liter DOHC Hyundai Getz that is slightly younger than its owner.
Hanns, the owner, has been our strong supporter throughout our tenure on KZbin, and upon his request, we took it up our favourite mountain to see how it would fare.
It is not tue fastest car around, but it can also be fun too.
Please enjoy the video and let us have your comments below

This is enhanced Getz. Had thr CBU with 1.3 Auto. Just an A to B car with good decent space. I just love the compact size. Ride is comfortable and quiet. Long haul ride is more comfortable than Myvi. Just the engine is sluggish, auto gb gear hunting, not so efficient FC and part is a bit dearer, power steering but slightly heavier. I found out the 1.3 cbu engine uses mitsubishi block because you can change wira 1.3 waterpump that fits exactly. Then this 1.4 under Inokom came out with better power and FC. Also it is using timing chain with lower maintenance. Good to see a well kept Getz and its a Manual! Pls keep it nicely.

Hyundai Getz 1.3 & 1.4 owners here, all uses timming belt instead of chain ya. 😊

[@HotRod16]

@@FELIXLIM225 oh, 1.4 still belt? The SC back then told me is timing chain 😖

[@izzatfauzimustafa6535]

Both the Hyundai Getz and Matrix were known for being "heavy" or "berat" in tetms of weight and fuel consumption. But they did felt solid and planted on highways instead of bouncy and floating.

I miss driving manual car. My first car was Nissan Sentra 1.6 manual transmission which I bought in 2004. In 2019, I bought Honda HRV 1.8 automatic transmission due to a few problems but still in good condition. Hopefully, I manage to drive manual car again because I prefer controlling the car and not the other way round.

[@noelnorjettey361]

A 14 year old Getz manual has done it! 👍

[@hannsforever]

Thanks for trying out the car, uncle YS!

[@YSKhongDriving]

No worries. Enjoyed the drive.

[@azlandin9911]

Just to share Getz had few variant for Malaysian Market CBU -1.3 5 doors, 1.6 5 doors, 1.3 3 doors, limited units of 1.4 5 doors with disc brakes (pre ckd). CKD (Inokom) 1.4 5 doors manual and auto. Limited units of Getz 1.4 5 doors Sportiz edition

[@yuntong1995]

Was my first car, 1.1 Getz Manual. Had tons of fun driving up Genting even though it’s not the fastest

[@YSKhongDriving]

Exactly!

[@nickloong]

The archilles heel of the manual version of the Getz is the gear ratios. The 4 speed auto model drives a lot better in my opinion. Anyways, nice review of this 16 year old hatch which Jeremy Clarkson used to say he enjoys driving, but choose to keep it a secret. A real workhorse of a car this Getz!✌️

[@urbanvlogs3442]

Really?

[@ride4speedrr53]

I'm planning to get one for my track day car. I saw one with manual transmission about 6K super cheap. First stage, I would remove the rear seat and replace front seats with light weight seats. Installing roll cage and remove unnecessary stuffs for weight reduction.

[@YSKhongDriving]

Go for it!

[@YSKhongDriving]

It's possibly the same car. This car is currently offered on sale by the owner

[@aimanfitri0iv]

that's my favourite little hatchback the most ultra rare is the 3 door variant i love this car hopefully when i grow up I'm going to find this second hand in a very good condition

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, me too!

[@abdinsyakirin77]

I've seen the 3 doors version in JB. Very neat and pretty car, and the owner is a woman. Waktu tu 1st time tau ada version 3 doors rupanya.

[@Anonymous-yb1ho]

It’s very funny to say this but this is the first time I’ve seen you drove at a normal speed hahaha. As my friend who drives a Kelisa would say, drive slow feeling fast. Got to love manuals

[@YSKhongDriving]

Hahaha, thanks. I always drive slow, and speed up the video anyway, for dramatic effect.

[@182kevtcs]

The condition look so good for car of this age. And plus point is it’s a manual…! Nice find there 👍🏻

Yes, Hanns has done a great job. It's about maitenance.

Can you make another video of driving the latest triton manual 2.4 mivec turbo...? Just curious the performance on the manual transmission...

[@rakyatprihatin]

They put back the hump again at 13.30. Must be careful. Lucky I saw it in your video or else I will be flying when driving up at night..

[@YSKhongDriving]

Sorry, this video was shot before they removed the hump. It has not been put back. I was there yesterday in another car.

[@xfinity_editz]

Hi guys i just bought a 1.6 2003 getz, if any of you have experience i would love you to comment here about failures, im very happy with the car good intake sounds and its quick 2-3 gear, follows stronger cars in 2nd gear easy 👍 gear ratios are pretty far away so if you dont redline it it falls out of power

[@YSKhongDriving]

For small engined cars you need to push them a bit in order to max out the power. That is a given. Reducing the final drive ratio helps a little.

[@KimikarazonGardening]

The best car. Trust me.

[@koiyen]

Kaw2 uncle bagi ...

[@marcusshhiew5047]

View from the video not sure the Tyre size is original spec or not but saw Uncle YS a bit struggling to handle the steering due to bigger Tyre

[@YSKhongDriving]

Eh? Not really - the steering was light enough.

[@prashantbhatt4100]

What was that beep sound i didn't understand?

[@hannsforever]

It was from the OBD2 meter. The first beep is due to reaching 6500rpm then followed by coolant temperature reaching 105°C. It was preset by the meter itself.

Idea bagus, tapi susah nak cari kereta ketiga itu. Yang ta baik condition, kita ta mahu, yang baik condition, owner tersayang jereta, ta akan pinjam, dan kalau bolih pinjam, kalau rosak, susah nak ganti, sebab spare part susah dapat

Owned this car until now, very fuel economy for manual transmission. Can get up to 5.0 liter/100km

[@YSKhongDriving]

Wow, thst is great economy!

How u did w 5.0 ? 14.5 here

[@Jafeyy]

Bru dpt kereta ni, owner sidai 3 tahun. Ade cdgn tak nak repair apa saya newbie lgi 😅

[@MShah-ch6st]

1.3 atau 1.4? Tukar yang basic2 dulu, timing belt, water pump, thermostat, segala jenis minyak yang ada, tengok juga berapa tahun dah tayar tu, kalau dah lebih 3 tahun ke atas, elok tukar 4 tayar baru. Cuci throttle body, idle control valve, map sensor Dan PCV Dan juga spark plug.

sama lah saya baru beli kt owner sidai kereta lama. beli murah2

Manual cars are fun to drive until get stuck in 3 hour highway jam

[@YSKhongDriving]

Just put into neutral and coast

[@shahrincamilleal-johary3742]

Look at it this way. Getting stuck in a 3 hour jam in a manual car means you get both legs a good workout, no need to go to a gym. You'd come out of the car with exercised, slightly muscular legs, though maybe a bit bowed like a cowboy after a long distance horse ride😅. But it's still better than getting stuck in a 3 hour jam in an automatic car - only your right leg gets a workout, and you'd come out of the car dragging that tired leg just like a zombie in those "The Walking Dead" episodes😂. Now, which is more desirable/cooler - walk like a cowboy🤠, or walk like a zombie🧟‍♂?😂🤣😅. From my personal experience a manual transmission Kelisa 850EX owner (already done more than 485K km in that car; I also own the first Getz 1.6 already done about 455K km). LOL😆😁😅
