Hyundai Santa Fe (Gen. 2) Thread

[C190]

Oo nga EB. I have alot of questions din. What's the tire pressure for a comfortable ride? Stock rims and wheels. Also ano magandang busina? Do you need to remove the bumper to have it installed? Step board, where to have one installed? Mud Guards?

Overall I love my SF, very very good ride.

stick to manual's tire pressure recommendation, i put 30psi

i changed my horn with bosch europa,tanggal ang bumper,i had pics sa previous pages, pati yung stock alarm naka tap sa horn para malakas ang sound, i plan to upgrade my alarm with Code/Clifford-yung may turbo timer..

mudguards- meron sa ibang dealers like Balintawak, yung front mudguards diko pa nakukuha kay Safala,siguro pag dina busy o sa EB

[TFR]

yun lang talaga problem dun pero dun talaga pwede ma test ang max speed ang haba kasi..pag napa gawi ako batangas test ko rin yung sakin dun.naka nitro ba tires mo?

Apparently yes, I had them changed as soon as got it out from the dealership, by accident pa nga eh. I had the pressure checked at minerva macapagal kasi parang matagtag kesa nung na test drive ko, yun pala 50 psi ang pressure, I then the air changed to nitro since 200 pesos lang naman for the 4 tires.
Why? does it matter ba at high speeds if you have nitro on your tires?

yes sir during high speed, tires actually expand and the air temps rise..so its better to fill in with nitro to keep tire temp cool..actually inex periment ko yan dito sa rear wheel tire ng civic ko and its true na mas madaling ma pudpod pag ordinary air.. left ko is with nitro and sa right yung ordinary air.so kailangan ko sya palitan ng nitro then ordinary to balance again..curious kasi ako kung totoo nga eh.

Para kasi gumana ung AC sa likod, kailangan i-ON din ung AC sa likod through the switch on the 3rd row seat. Parang 3-way switch yan eh.

Di din gagan ung AC sa likod kahit na i-ON nila don kung naka-off naman sya jan sa dashboard.

[Horsepower]

That's correct, check if the REAR AC button is pressed and lit at the dashboard under the radio.

[joarcht]

ive just inquire hyundai at d fort wala na daw na 4x4 na SF. Ill go na lang cguro sa 4x2? any suggestions?

[Horsepower]

You can order. Try to go around dealerships, baka may nag-stock ng 4x4.

[joarcht]
