STA FE (Gen 3)

[supercar10]

I'm not an expert pero just to compare:

--------- Sulphur content, mass pct ---- Cetane Index

Unioil Diesel ---- 0.0015 ---- 54.9
Caltex Diesel ---- 0.0423 ---- 54.5
Phoenix Diesel ---- 0.00077 ---- 56.6
Shell DIesel/Nitro ---- 0.05 ---- 53.0/58.0

Bsed on the figures above, kayo na po mag decide saan kayo magpakarga ng diesel. Again, their diesel products vary and depends on where they get the supply. Like with Seaoil, they use to get diesel with 50 ppm sulphur content but have switched supplier and thus higher sulphur content.

personally, I used to fill up with Shell Nitro Diesel and switch recently to Unioil for my last two fill ups. But will gas up with Phoenix if the situation permits cause malayo and Unioil station from my place and wala naman ako nadadaanan sa EDSA on my way to work.

What does these figures mean? higher is better or lower is better? Sorry not too knowledgeable bout these fuel stats. :busted:

Great info sir. San niyo po nakuha ito?

Even if I am not a 3rd gen Sta Fe owner but a Monterosport owner, I can recommend Unioil. Ganda ng specs ng Phoenix diesel pero I can't find it in their site.

Inexplain sa akin yan ng barkada ko sa HARI, yun gumagawa ng specs before. Nasa Toyota SG na siya ngayon.

Tucson at Elantra ginawa niyang example, May limited options/features lang na binibigay ang Hyundai Motor Korea para sa mga "FOR EXPORT" na vehicles nila. Sila lang nakakakuha ng full privilege sa features, at EUDM.

Tapos ang mahal ng costing. Alam niyo naman nasa pilipinas tayo, hayop sa taxes. For every feature na isasaksak sa SF noong ginagawa palang yung specs, titingnan muna kung gaano kalaki magbabago sa price.

Sana nag KDM ka nalang din kung marami ka reklamo. Yung local naka EURO II emission kaya walang DPF. KDM at EUDM meron.

Reklamo? Ano reklamo ko sa Sf ko. As i said earlier, i opted to get the 4x2 for practical reasons. Wala din ako reklamo kung euro 2 siya or euro 4... I cannot recall complaining about the phdm sf except for the price.

The PHDM Santa Fe is SWB with 7 seats, the LWB Santa Fe also has 7 seats but legroom is way bigger due to the longer wheelbase thus is classified as a true 7-seater SUV. In the US, Santa Fe Sport ang tawag sa SWB version and has only 5 seats.

Have you guys heard of autoexpress in ortigas? any experience with them?

[imperialv]

Thanks for the info.

I just wanted to ask KDM owners here if you have memory power seats, heated/cooled seats on both front and 2nd row seats, lane departure warning and active park assist and a drivers knee airbag? This are the ones missing sa 4x4 PHDM. Thanks.

*Titan, thanks for the answer....nice specs for the KDM

Anyway, I just wanted to share that after 2 weeks of driving the SF3, I am very satisfied with its performance. Definitely one of the most comfortable SUVs in the market today. I usually spend about 4 hours a day driving around the Metro and I feel very relaxed arriving at my destination despite heavy traffic...and this is in comparison to the Monty, Gen 3 CRV and Fortuner. Before deciding to buy the SF3, I was also looking at the Ford Explorer 4x4.... specs-wise and ride, impressive. However, the gas mileage would really burn my pocket....I average about 1500kms a month city driving....translating that to pesos would be about 20-25K a month assuming that 3-4kms/li is the mileage of the Explorer. Some people would argue that buying a car in the 2M+ range, mileage becomes a non-factor.... not true, as I would prefer the 320d than the 320i and the XC60 D5 than the T5. Anyway, my current mileage is about 8km/li of diesel...not bad and I am not using the Eco mode at the moment. I'm not sure if this is because of the "new car syndrome", but driving the SF3 brings a smile to my face.... I don't know up to when but I surely hope even after the warranty of the vehicle expires, hehehe.

We also looked at the Explorer, good thing di trip ng folks ko yung looks. I also found out from US reviews the Ford Sync system hangs. There is a review from TFL cars about this on YouTube. We average 8 to 9 city driving as well. Just filled up the tank earlier at Unioil and they are giving flyers advertising their Euro IV napansin ko din they changed their 50ppm sticker at the pump and made it Euro IV, I guess for more folks to find it much easier to understand and appreciate. Ok yung flyers nila it shows what emission pollution is with diesels. Anyhow, it is great to hear you are enjoying. Hehehe.. Later on mods na yan lalagay mo. Honestly speaking wala naman din kailangan masyadong exterior mods it is already good looking as it is. I placed some mods which are discreet as for me it is more appealing to see finer details on this car than obvious mods. Very sophisticated than brute ang dating in my opinion specially over the Explorer. Although, I still have a few more details I want to put on this car, but that will have to wait as parts arrive here on our shores. I hope they do..

Sir TItan pareho ba features ng 4x2 at 4x4 kay pitstop?
Thank you sir!

Docwin, it really depends on the trim as you can order its specs. So it may vary as per order. I suggest checking what they have or order your trim. Ask the SA to show the brochure or you can check out the korean website. There are 4 trim levels; (In order and by rank) Smart, Modern, Premium and Exclusive (TOTL).

If indeed the LWB will come to our shores, cost would be around 2.6-2.9M

[EJS12129]

chances are, the LWB SF will fill in the discontinued Veracruz.

Kasama na dyan sa price prediction ni *bjreyesmd ang price ng mga KDM gray market units. I have a feeling na yung LWB Santa Fe tatapatan ang features at price ng Explorer V6 Limited, pag PHDM HARI unit.

*studebaker, no problem, hehe. Sabi nga ni attorney, mukhang may plano ka ah, hehe.
