2008 Hyundai Starex (Gen. 4)

[CVT]

Guys,

Have you experienced all your dashboard indicator lights go on, as if you had just started the car, while you were driving?

I had just finished with the RCBC building's (useless) security check. After all doors had been closed, I took my foot off the brake pedal and then noticed that all my dash indicator lights lit up, and then turned off. I drove off to the parking but did not experience anything different.

Electronic Gremlins? Forewarning? Anyone experience this before?

Thanks.

That would have freaked me out.

Anyway, how did you get around it? Engine off and on lang?....

How's the road going to Pagudpud?...

12.7K:fart1:

roads are 95% good, just some portions that are already needing repaving so medyo bumpy and a few hundred meters where new pavement is being laid. those roads were laid when makoy was still the president but even 30 years later maganda pa din.

[fast lane]

only complaint: head lights low beam light throw is too short. bili ako sa monday ng H7 na philips!

and the fog lights doesn't help either, very short throw of lights

Mayroon na ba ritong nakapag-realign ng foglights ng GS? That's what I plan to do first, before considering an upgrade.....

Thanks bro. I remembered our trip to Pagudpud in 2008 in our Gen3 Starex. There were at least a couple of portions of the highway, each with hundreds of meters of road that were being repaired. The worse one was in Candon, where we were diverted to a rough road on the other side of the town. It looks like things have improved.

Bolinao (passing by Hundred Is) should be another good road trip for our GS. We were there last year. This time in our GS....

Get the Maruko horns then change the location.

Barakong-barako talaga ang busina

Are these the ones available at Blade? 2 piece or 3 pieces ba? Any suggestions on horn positioning?

Thanks.

[IMm29]

^^^ Correct ka riyan bro. That is why I almost immediately upgraded to Philips Xtreme Power right after replacing the horn....

Hehehe! I thought the low beams were pretty decent. But that's probably just for in-city driving. And an un-tinted front windshield.

[IMm29]

That would have freaked me out.

Actually, did not need to do anything. The lights that were not supposed to be on, were no longer on. No difference in engine response or the like. Weird. As if they just decided to do a systems check as a demo and then proceeded on their way.

Thanks bro. Thought about that also. Will recheck. But then from the Friday lunchtime 'episode', I used the GS Friday night and Saturday afternoon with, thankfully, nothing like that happening. Weird.

Bro, upgrade ka na to these. Hehehe!




They're bolt-on and hi/lo na. If you need the high beam illumination, you can have the high beam functionality work on both the oem location and projectors.

Of course, if you can spare a bit more time, check out SG's set. Much more powerful!

Wala sa blade bro, kay MASPRO meron at sa Concorde. Bale yun yung 3 piece na barakong horn

Re: Positioning. Pwede yung location na pinag-lagyan ni sir Ted sa GS niya.

Uy ganda! Haha

Sino gumawa bro?

[IMm29]

*SG,
I meant "Concorde" hehe! Ba't ko bang nasabi ang Blade? Hehehe!

Si PDM88/Pao gumawa nung bolt-ons. Happy naman with them and with the service

[IMm29]

Musta na ang yellow light project mo? Hehe! ;)

[toybeats]

If someone needs an Osram Nightbreaker H7, I have 2 sets here. I'm planning to install sana in our GS, but I opted to install HID on my head and fog lamps. PM niyo lang ako mga paps

I just installed Euroline Super yellow replacement bulbs for my stock fog lamps (# 880), and yes, the fog lamps can be re-aligned. There's a philips type screw just under the bulb: counter clockwise makes it higher (to lengthen the throw).

I also replaced my low beams with Philips Xtreme Vision H7 (100% more light).

So new low beams plus re-aligned new super yellow fogs equal tremendously improved night driving. But the validating test would be during provincial night driving with rain and fog.

^^^ Thanks bro.

In my case, I replaced the high beam bulbs with Euroline super yellow....

How much higher did you adjust your fogs light beam to? Might have this done na rin para di naman sayang yung fogs ;)

Thanks! Your turn na

I re-aligned it just below the low beams, in a way that there's no shadow or empty lighting on the road between the fogs and the low beams. I replaced the fog lamp bulbs since I also believed that the stock bulbs are weak.
