Hyundai Santa Fe (Gen. 2) Thread

[oldblue]

Conclusion - Very tempting, if you can afford the price. But I can't seem to shake off the feeling that I'd get short-changed if I were to buy the CRDi, given that the V6 version has better ameneties for a 60k difference. Hyundai should bring a CRDi version with all the amenities of the V6, less the engine of course, and price it at least 150k below the Fortuner 3.0. Now that would be sure sell for me.

V6? hehehe, we sacrificed a lot by disposing our American V6 for this superb CRDi SUV. our american V6 had more amenities than this Hyundai V6, too bad it's worthless in the 2nd hand market.

can this sante fe really do this? ano kaya mods nito? for sure 4x4 to.


lupet!!

That's the old version. The Jumbo Tucson one. Not sure if that can be done with the new one since there is no handbrake, it was replaced with the footbrake.

The new Santa Fe's handbreak was replaced with a footbreak becasue it is designed for the US market. It also saves space. Not a problem if you have an auto tranny.

............ gus2 ko rin sana non kaya lang sabi nung agent na beige interior lang yung available for V6, totoo ba yon? bat may narinig ako na may nakakuha ng gray at black? medyo cheap, IMO, kasi yung beige di gaya kung ivory. pero gaya mo reasearch muna pa about the CRDI.[/QUOTE]

I got the V6 variant with a black and red interior. Akala ko rin beige interior ang makukuha ko paro black and red and dumating. Almost 3 weeks ako naghintay after I put in my deposit. It might be one of a kind but I guess you can specify it if you want this interior color. It might take awhile lang siguro.

here's the first 1000kms expense of our Hyundai sa CASA:

Labor 0.00
Parts
Oil filter 667.20
Shell Synthetic 3468.00
Misc 90.00
Drain Plug Washer 10.00

Total 4235.20 + 12% VAT

Saang casa yan sir oldblue?

nung 1K PMS kasi namin, the oil filter is only 500 something, then 90 bucks misc. yun lang. We brought our own oil (Castrol for CRDi Turbo engines) kasi Shell Rimula D lang ang gamit ng casa e. I have this impression that castrol is better.

[oldblue]

sa c5. 6 liters ba yun oil na nilagay nyo?

[chuaa]

sa hyundai shaw...chinarge ako oil filter 900!!!kala ata nila wala akong alam sa kotse eh... nag complain ako...then they gave me refund...sabi nila kasi they dont have stock and that they had to buy it from another dealer..tapos nag patong pa sila! they ended up charging me around 650 (thats the cost they paid to the other dealer) then they also charged me 200 misc...sabi ko...niloloko nyo ata ako eh...they say that its free labor, but they end up charging you and calling it by another name !!!

i brought my own oil shell helix full synthetic. I only brought 5 ltrs...according to the manual, it is around 5.5 liters...sabi ko sa casa ako na ang mag to top up sa bahay! kasi, my experience is, if you bring the 6 litrs, then they use only 5.5, chances are, you wont expect to get the remaining .5 ltrs...eh sayang din yon cuz you can use that to top up....specially if you are using full synthetic...mahal!

ala daw talaga sabi ng agent. saan ka kumuha?

[msg]

mga guys na naka 2.2 crdi, wala pa ba milage report?

sa lakas ng engine wala na ako problema hehe sabi nyo malakas. ang problema ko milage hehe please oh please post nyo milage nyo

[oldblue]

8km/liter. all city driving. manual mode. but this is break in period. baka mag-improve pa ....

[chuaa]

same here....just about 8 / ltr

[Horsepower]

*oldblue: 6 liters po sir.

*msg: 8-10km/L po sir, depende sa driving eh. I think it can go as high as 15Km/L if not for our impulsive sprinting. I think you can achieve higher mileage if you drive in full manual tapos 80kph max speed after 5 or maybe 10K PMS. Minsan kasi 140kph na takbo mo e di pa po napapansin because sprinting is effortless. You just notice that everyone is strangely so slow.

The engine's orchestra is so sweet to the ear. You'll hear a faint whistle in the cabin. If you put your windows down, you'll hear the violent gusts of air.

thanks po sa reply. tipid na din noh? with tipid and ample power. ok na ok na. ganda pa ng design

[minero]

Hyundai Quezon Avenue. Look for Marife. Pati nga siya nagulat nang hindi beige and interior because we also thought all V6 come with beige leather. I have no complaint with the gray color dahil dumihin ang beige.
