Hi,

Just bought my 3rd Gen Tucson. I am satisfied with my car and intend on keeping it for long. Great value for money. Has all the basic features and none of the unnecessary ones. However, the free infotainment (ANDROID AVN) has old version of the OS -- 4.4.4. Pre-installed apps cannot be updated through google play and performance is somehow slow. USB ports read very slow (could barely read music and video files from 16GB/32GB USB device). Bluetooth is unstable too 8(

Am I the only lucky one here?

Please share your experience with your new Tucson infotainment (especially those who happened to receive free AVN upgrade on their new purchase ---10 inch Android AVN 4.4.4, Beryllium)

Thanks.

Good afternoon. I'm planning to buy a 2nd hand 2016 Tucson GLS Diesel. Just wanted to ask if anyone had issues with theirs? Any advice or recommendations about the car? Thank in advance! Have a great day!

That's good to hear.

We're on the same boat. I've been on the look out for a 2016-2017 CRDi variant to use as a daily driver. i have not read any big issues except for:
- Spotty Hyundai service (which we've also encountered when we were making a warranty claim for the power window switch of our 2009 Tucson);
- Suspension is not as durable (feedback i got from a former tsikoteer and from the Hyundai parts shop we go to), but it's not outright bad naman. Our 2009 has around 83,000 kms on the odo and the so far we've only changed the shocks.

Per my experience with the 2009 Tucson, it's had niggles here and there (door handles that broke, shifter bushing that required replacement of the shifter assembly to make the +/- function once again, broken power window and brake light switches, but these were all easily repaired at a reasonable cost outside of the CASA. No major mechanical issues therefore in terms of value for money, i'm still considering a Tucson CRDi.

Check out pricing difference of the second hands though as there are still okay discounts for brand new at the dealers as of January.

I've seen some go for 1M+. Do you think I should just go for the brand new instead? What would you choose given that there's about 300k+ price difference between a used and a new one? Thank you very much for the info Sir!

Good day Sir, I have my 2016 tucson CRDi and I am having a problem with my airconditioning. It hardly gives cold AC temperature. I have it checked and replaced the compressor but still have the same problem. Any suggestions for a hyundai or any car aircon specialist will be much appreciated. Thank you

Brand new is around P1.38M for the CRDi GL variant, less 100-130K from what i know (as of January) so it's quite a good deal. I'd consider second hand if it's a latter 2016 to 2017 model with low mileage, first owner selling and service records, priced at less than 1Mn.

Given your unit is still under warranty, best to really take it up with the dealer. You can try another dealer if you feel the one you are going to isn't resolving the issue.

The compressor engages properly? Freon levels are okay?
