Hyundai Santa Fe (Gen. 2) Thread

[Horsepower]

For the CRDi VGT owners, diba FWD ang SF, i was thinking, pagpalitin yung front and rear tires since mas napupudpod siguro yung front since sya yung drive and steering.

Whatcha think? Is this a sound idea? Is there anyone who tried this before?

Minsan kasi umiiyak yung gulong pag sharp cornering around 120kmh+ altho i don't lose control, i don't like the sound because i know that's it's a sign that the rubber is not sticking to the road the way i want it to. Is that normal or pudpod na yung gulong? Parang ngayon ko lang kasi napansin ito. 17k Kms na po ang tinakbo ng Hankook DynaPro HP na gulong namen (stock 17").


TIA

Your idea is called tire rotation, do you rotate your tires? You're supposed to do that about every 10,000km so that the tires wear properly between the front and the rear tires.

[Horsepower]

Redorange: So my idea is okay sir? So I should proceed with it? About tire rotation, i haven't done that before.

Is it just a straight swap? like:

Front Left Tire -> Rear Left Tire
Front Right Tire -> Rear Right Tire

Rear Right Tire -> Front Right Tire
Rear Left Tire -> Front Left Tire.

Yun lang po sir?

TIA

HOrsepower, I think its the opposite sides. FrontLeft goes to RearRight,FrontRight goes RearLeft . Thats if your not considering the sparetire as part of the rotation. Parang nag-ekes yung tires.

I think wala naman problem don. Sa Sorento kasi pwede ekes pero ang ginawa ng kasa,lipat lang rear tires sa harap and yong front tires lipat sa likod pero same side pa din.

nasa manual yung pag rotate ng tires every 10k kms. It will also tell you how to rotate the tires. I rotate my tires excluding the spare tire. Make sure to balance your tires when rotating especially when you do an 'x' rotation. Experience ko kasi kapag nag rotate ako at hindi ko na balance ang tires, nanginginig manibela at high speed which indicates out of balance tires.

Thanks, read the manual when the car was new back in July but must have missed the tire rotating part. hehe

[salsaman_60]

sir hindi ko po alam kung natanung na to a, kamusta naman po yung parts availability niya? ok naman po ba? bago lang kasi hyundai e

[O!lman]

OK naman siguro. My SF's rear bumper was replaced recently. Body parts nga lang yun. Engine parts...ewan ko lang, bago pa kasi at wla pang problema.

Buti ka pa Centum naayos na SF mo. Mine kasi baka this week pa i-cash settlement ng nakaaksidente. Anyway, nakuha ba yung tri-color shades ng superior red?

[Horsepower]

Minero: diba balanced na yung tires natin? so kailangan syang i-balance ulit based on where i'll install it?

and BTW, is this tire rotation thing for FWD cars only?

TIA

OK naman yung pagka-paint. Mukhang brand new uli Santa Fe ko.
Ano nga pala ang settlement nyo? Participation pay ba ang sagot nila. Mine kasi participation na lang hiningi ko then Insurance na ang bahala sa kanila!Medyo mabagal yung Standard Insurance mag approve kaya nainis talaga ako.

Good to hear na balik sa dati SF mo. Sana ganun din SF ko. Since TPL lang insurance nila, babayaran nila lahat gastos. Insurance ko Generali. Mabilis sila magaprove. Eto nga kinukulit ako na ipasok ko na sa casa at sila na daw bahala sa nakaaksidente. Kaso nakikiusap sila dahil mas mataas babayaran nila pag insurance naghabol sa kanila.

Horsepower, during the course of time, nawawala balanced ng tires dahil sa lubak at kain ng gulong. Also, pag nagpa-vulcanize kelangan din i-balance unless maibalik sa exact location ang tire sa wheel. kung ma-feel mo na may vibration steering wheel din kelangan i-balance. Tire rotation is for both FWD and RWD. You do this para tumagal tires. Usually the front tires, whether FWD or RWD, ang mabilis mapudpod. So by doing tire rotation, the front tires go to the back and vice-versa, na e-extend and life ng mga tires.

Sa J.P. Wheels...Along President Ave., BF Homes Paranaque. Suki ako dyan dahil expert sila sa camber/wheel balancing. Sa servitek kasi medyo nakakatakot dahil puro mga bagito/trainee ang tumatrabaho dun.Since nung sinira nila yung both front shocks ng Altis ko, hindi na ako nag-attempt bumalik sa kanila.

FWD or AWD kailangan i-rotate ang tires according to the manual. This is presumably for the tires to wear evenly. I usually balance the wheels that go to the front para maayos ang takbo. Any service station can do the rotating and wheel balancing.

It should be every other oil change or 10000km that the tires are rotated. It should also be part of the PMS that you guys are paying for when you visit the dealer.
