sorry sir have not been going thru the threads lately. saw your question regarding my rear fog in the santafeclub.com see my post on p 45 and 46 here. Its a whole housing not only the bulb.
dinan
May nakita na naman ako SF kanina sa Julia Vargas kasabay ko din papunta EDSA, sino dito si ZJS? Silver yata. May nakasabay na naman ako na white sa EDSA papuntang North.
Dami na talaga may SF, ganda kasi eh.
Thanks, Javoy for the advice.
Nasa 830km na SF ko and I think before October ends, I will have my 1k PMS.
my SF seem to have so many rattles from underneath pag nalulubak.
Ganito din ba sa inyo?
And yong lubak na sinasabi ko ay hindi naman ganon kalalim, say, mga uneven asphalt pavement lang naman and yet parang di ako comfortable sa mga rattles underneath.
Ito yong sinabi ko dati na napansin ni Mrs. noong nag test drive ng SF. Still I bought the SF for her. Ganoon din na observe ko ngayon pag nalubak at medyo wavy ang asphalt. Ang analysis ko pag downward ang spring walang sound pero when it goes back up again to regain it's original position mag emit na nang knocking sound. Sa akin naman ma tolerate ko but darating ang panahon na nakaka irita na di benta nalang kong walang solution magawa ang Hyundai.
chevy is not a good choice dahil bukod sa mahirap maghanap ng parts napakamahal pa at sa kasa lang available ang karamihan with a very very high price.
what is your tire pressure... i observed kasi na pag matigas ang tires you hear some rattling sounds... pero pag malambot wala na... ako i heard those sounds lalo na pag cemented roads... i checked my tire pressure it was 32psi all around... i lowered it to 30psi front and 29 psi rear mas maganda na ngayon...
My tire pressure is 32 psi as what is indicated sa sticker sa B Pillar.
Parang there is too much happening underneath pag nalulubak sya.
I can say that I am not that impressed with my SF pagdating sa lubak although ok ang hatak nito lalo na pag nakabwelo na and maporma talaga.
Ang mga lubak na sinasabi ko ay those from Malugay Street Makati.
If you are coming from Buendia then you turn right at Malugay going to the Makati Fire Station, may mga asphalt application doon na uneven and if you pass by that portion at, say, 50kph, maawa ka sa suspension ng SF. You really have to slow down when passing by that portion.
These observations I have are in comparison with the Company Car na Crosswind XUV that I drive when going to clients.
I believe recommended tire pressure is 30 PSI for normal load and 32 PSI for maximum load.
Kung maraming lubak, I really slow down to a crawl kaya I don't hear anything sa ilalim. Minsan lang when I drive fast in C5 and fail to avoid some potholes, I do hear the strange noise sa suspension.
Ang naging complaint ko lang were some rattling noise sa cabin but it turned out to just be the sunglasses inside the overhead sunglass holder.![]()
I also heard some squeking, not rattling noise, (pag grabe lubak lang) but found out to be coming from the 3rd row seat area when its in the folded position. Pero pag may nakasakay sa likod, nawawala. I guess there something to do with the springs onthe 3rd row seats as it sounded like it.
Same with dragonheart, i inflate my tires at 30psi lang. its smoother and much softer to drive. Tire pressure increases once it heat up when you're running. +2psi daw, if i heard it correctly. I tried nitrogen on 4 wheels on my car but i dont feel any diffrence yet. Maybe because i am using low profile tires. But there are a lot of good reports of using N2. a lot of write-ups bout it in the net. :idea:

well the real benefit of N2 is that when you inflate it to 30psi it will always stay at 30psi unlike regular air when it heats up your tire pressure increases by 2psi...
so if your tire pressure is 32psi cold it will become 34psi when your tire heats up... try lowering it to 30psi cold and see if there is any improvement, you have nothing to loose naman...
thanks Javoy
DragonHeart- na try mo na AM signal sa AVT mo?
ferdine- di kaya yung knocking sound na sinasabi mo ay gaya ng kay Chi827-coming from brake caliper bushing?
safala- paki try mo nga yang green wire,baka nga yan ang antena wire sa AM band, pero sa manual ng HU 1 lang antena cable for both AM and FM band.
