2008 Hyundai Starex (Gen. 4)

Saka na LR. It's not yet needed. TB is fine. But I'm still enjoying the GS since it's the newest car. It's more comfy and a lot easier to drive than the TB and my Montero, with a quieter diesel engine also. The GS is roomy naman. I'm sure the heater on the driver's seat can be very relaxing also

Baka naman maihi yung driver niyan. Hahaha!

Actually for something that big, it's quite easy to drive even in the Metro. And yes, very comfortable.

[IMm29]

Wow! That is now a fortune, IMO!

It's still a bit cheaper than the full-fledged limo. But it is expensive. Hehehe!

Comfortable talaga GS compared sa ibang vans na competition niya. Mas comfortable rin compared sa ladder-frame SUVs and some CUV

Pansin ko nga yan eh. Mas comfortable ang ride than our Montero, Trailblazer, Jazz and BRZ. My dad said the riding comfort is similar to our Sonata and a bit better than our former Gen. 2 Expedition. And pansin ko din, parang mas maganda ride ng KDM units kesa sa dating GS Gold namin. Or maybe it's just a placebo effect. Happy that we chose the GS Semi Limo to replace our Strada Another observation, it's more stable at high speeds than our 2 ladder frame SUVs. Yup we brought the GS to Anvaya Cove just this weekend

[jaggerx3]

Stable talaga GS sa Hiway speeds. hehe
Di ko lang talaga gusto GS pag nalubak. DI ko gusto yung tunog ng shocks pag naalog. Hehe

Parang naayos na yan sa mga 2015 models. Ours doesn't have that sound. Nalubak ko sa Subic while at 40-50 kph. Di ko nakita yung lubak kasi dahil madilim yung area hehe.

Maybe naayos na nga. Hehe
Tunog kakalas kasi yung ilalim kapag nalubak

Kahit sa Tucson ng kapitbahay ko na 2012 rin binili ganun rin pag nalulubak. Pero ang iniba lang eh mas comfy pa rin ang GS

I think the KDMs have different shocks vs the HARI units. Someone in Team Hyundai found this out and shared it before, so your observation could be more than just placebo. Perhaps the HARI units shock absorbers were designed to be a bit more durable in coping with local conditions. Anyhow, can't complain with the Gold's ride.

Anyone experienced a squeaky steering wheel?

Mine sir, ipina check ko, assembly daw ng steering ang papalitan. up to now hindi pa rin nawawala yung squeaky sound.

Maiba naman tayo ng konti, I'm currently doing some maintenance work on my 09 CVX which currently has 15,000km:

- change oil and oil filter (Motul CRDI Specific using Baldwin BD28 oil filter)
- replace fuel filter
- replace front and rear brake pads and replace front rotor discs
- replace wiper blades (front)
- replace all 4 tires from Nexen 215/65/17 to Kumho 225/65/17
- repaint magwheels (nabangketa ni Kumander)
- touch up bumper for various small scratches

Check ko rin yung air filter ok pa naman kaya linis lang, next would be to clean the A/C filter.

So mas malambot ang kdm? Pwede bang palitan yung shocks ng kdm into shocks ng HARI?

Saan ka nakahanap ng Kumho sir? Also, I want to ask if ano ang ideal tire pressure? Comfortable ang ride pero not too soft and not too harsh ang ride. Tsaka hindi bibilis ang wear and tires (kasama na yung maooblong yung gulong). And FC won't suffer also.

I'm ok with the shocks of the KDM. Baka maging a bit matagtag na yung GS namin of we change to the shocks ng HARI GS

I assume softer yung KDM. Yun ang di ko alam kung direct swap lang.

[numbah5]

What's the ideal tire pressure sirs? I find the 42 front 47 rear a bit hard and ride is a bit harsher. Basta the ideal tire pressure makes the ride comfy and won't accelerate the wear and tear of the tires.

Yung Kumho nahanap ko sa supplier namin ng gulong sa office, 42 yata yung tire pressure ko. In general kasi di ako bilib sa stock tires ng GS mapa Nexen o Hankook parehong na oblong kaagad sa amin.

nakita ko sa isang website, Tiara Commercial and Industrial Corporation - Authorized Distributor of Michelin and Kumho Tire in the Philippines

merong kumho na load rating 104 para sa 16" rim

kaso ang size ay 235 60 16. ang stock size ng cvx na gaulong ay 215 60 16.
uubra ba itong size ng kumho? yung iba kasi less than 100 ang load rating.
TIA
