Hyundai Santa Fe (Gen. 2) Thread

[oldblue]

question fellow sta fe owners, mayroon ba talaga immobilizer ang units natin? i'm planning to duplicate the keys pero baka useless din eh. just checked motioncars.com. halos pala ng hyundai top of the line models, may immobilizer, even getz, tucson, and starex.

[Horsepower]

try mo na, 100 lang naman duplicate e. hehehe

just posted my fastest speed at 195kph sa nlex with 4 adults and 2 kids on board. after my 1000 pms nagiba yung hatak...lumakas lalo. uncle ko gulat sa lakas ng hatak. now convinced sla that fe is better than the (un)fortuner.

wow..15 units na lang abot ka na sa dulo ng gauge!! Against the wind ba?? hehe. 600km more to go pa pwede na rin subukan si Fe ko. Btw, ano RPM mo at 195?

oo,halos hangin lang naririnig ko, pero ang kasarapan eh parang 120kph ka lang. papalo between 3k-4k rpm sa biglang accelertion pero babalik bet 2-2.5k rpmpag steady.never felt na diesel drive ko...at hindi maingay.

post naman kayo pics ng fe niyo, i will pagbalik ko ng china this monday.

sabi nga nila..fortuner looks astig...while fe si ***IER!

btw, im still getting 10-11 km/l mixed. palagay ko sa pure nlex kaya 15-17.

Have you tried 160Kph * Q.Ave underpass? that's where you'll see the power of CRDi VGT of Hyundai. It's a very short stretch. :D

how much did it cost you guys to have the HID installed? ok na kaya if i just have the bulb changed (same wattage but higher output....something like the philips diamond vision)

HID depends on ur budget..korean made may cost you from 12-16K, while branded wil cost u more upto 20K cguro..i went for korean made coz of price, tried ko na sa previous car and til now buhay pa for 3 yrs na gamit. 2 sets pa yun. well i had a bad expereince using higher wattage bulbs. nalusaw yung plastic lens hg headlight ko..kung hindi man, nag yellowish kagad sya. but again u can't compare the brightness and color ng HID vs halogen even wid higher wattage.

[Horsepower]

real HID ba yung DiamondVision?

[chuaa]

no..diamond vission is just replacement of bulb...

where can i have the korean HID installed? anong brand ba yon?

[bongsac]

i had mine installed at camspeed alabang town center near st joseph church. cant remember the brand but it cost me 14k c/w 1 yr warranty.

[chuaa]

did you have all 4 bulbs replaced to HID or just the high beam? am thinking about havin mine upgraded...but di kaya pangit if only 2 bulbs were replaced....di balanced...

nope..just d low beam..although HIDs are brighter, halogens have better wet road visibility. u also need to use your high beam for flashing..kaya lang sa santa fe or any hyundai models, when u flash with headlights off, both low and high beam lit up.

[chong_ng]

saan kaya meron available na rear spoiler for the santa fe? para sa akin mas maganda pag meron.

[mazdamazda]

Guys, saan nakalagay ang spare tire ng Santa Fe? Sa loob ng trunk or sa ilalim?

[chong_ng]

sa ilalim pero yong release screw niya na sa trunk

[yuichi]

sa ilalim pero yong release screw niya na sa trunk

...tsaka well-concealed unlike fortuner na kitangkita.

dapat yata mag-EB na mga santa fe owners before or after xmas, what do u think guys?

[mataraki]

kakainis eh no? ganyan din ako nung breakin period....kain ako ng alikabok sa NLEX. lalo pag may SUV (fortuner) na umobertake sa akin.

after nung 1k km pms ko, sa sanfernando toll papasok ng NLEX, may biglang humataw na fortuner sa akin na 2.5d4d....akala niya!!!!! pinainit ko muna tapos humataw ako....140kph lang pala kaya niya, ewan ko lang kasi nagkatapatan kami sa 130kph, binirit niya to 140 kph...ayun umabot ako 170kph...byebye...pero nagcruise lang ako sa 120 kph. nagparamdam lang si FE kay Fortun.

masasabi ko lang..di ka ipapahiya ng baby Fe natin!

mahal naman ng santa fe... tapos korean car pa... mababa naman resale value nyan.. lugi tayo pag ibenta ng 2nd hand.. for me its not worth my money... 1.5M for a korean car?.... not to put down hyundai but lets face it, its the fact... maganda nga porma nya n hands down ako nun but its just not getting to me the price tag they put on it.. lugi nga fortuner nyan n rav4 sa porma.. but i want value for my money.

ot.....the real value for your money, IMO, is the comfort and luxury while driving your car even on a long trip, without the feeling that you were shaken or beaten. one of the best......really best ride to me...considering 6mos preggy misis ko at walang reklamo sa comfort ride ni FE. better than my 8th gen civic....and lot better than the shaky fortuner plus the other "features" na wala and fortuner, all for 1.52M at FYI im getting 10-12km/l mixed, 12-15 highway for deisel..... ano pa hihilingin mo?

sabihin mong pedeng pagtiyagaan tagtag ng fortuner pero you will be driving this car for years...di biro yon!

resale value? maaring talo nga, pero ganoon din ang bagsak kung susumahin mo naman matitipid mo sa gaso...deisel pala!
