I have a 2008 Santa Fe and it has never given me any problem. I purchased a timing belt kit as soon as I bought the vehicle in 2010 with 50k miles on the odometer. I had the timing belt changed soon after and it still runs good in 2022 with 226k on the odometer.

@@karthikeyannataraj3786 I’m not an expert but a mechanic I respect told me as soon as I purchased the Sante Fe to purchase a timing belt kit. I did. Soon after (at about 70,000) the timing belt changed. I have a new vehicle now but I’m going to spend 3k fixing the old Santa Fe because the engine still runs strong. I may have the rear seats removed so I have a place to nap when I’m working overtime. I never had trouble with the old Santa Fe. Maintenance was cheap despite me rhetorically beating it like an ugly stepchild.

My transmission and my fuel level sensor both went bad on my 2008 3.3L V6. The trans would get stuck in 5th gear on cold startups and would downshift on the highway over 60mph. On the fuel level sensor, the check engine light came on but the function was normal in the car. My mechanic had to take the back seats out to change them out. There are two of them. Amazingly my alternator is loaded with dirty, grimy oil. It looks like the valve cover is leaking oil. Things happened to start at 150,000 miles. I now have 179,000 miles on it. This video is amazingly accurate to my car. Thanks. Liked and subscribed.

I had a 2003 2.7 V6 Santa Fe that I drove for 13 years with 365,000 miles on it. I probably would have driven it longer but after a front-end fender bender it started leaking coolant out the front of the engine block, so I figured it was time to retire it. It had the original engine and transmission with no problems. Other miscellaneous things went wrong like windows not rolling down, alternator failure and the fuel purge unit causing long startup after gas fill-up. Other than that...an amazing car!

I’m on my third Santa Fe turbo. I’ve had no problems with the vehicles and the dealers have treated me well. Always have the dealers maintain them. Plenty of power when needed and the vehicles offer plenty of utility when needed. Service personnel and salespeople seem well trained and professional. The recent recall could be a set back for some but Hyundai (in my experience) stands behind their vehicles. Just have great luck with the vehicles and excellent follow up.

I have a 2008 with a 2.7l engine and ran into a couple of issues at about 97,000 miles. 1) The ignition switch developed an issue where it would short and cause the starter to engage while in park or neutral - replaced the switch but ended up having to replace the starter because it burned it up. 2) The purge control valve wears out and sticks at abut 97k miles. This is part of the pollution controls and will trip the check engine light. Car is driveable but will not pass a state inspection if required. Valve is at the back of the engine on the back of the manifold.

Very good video. In case of EGR valve issue, you have to look for the root cause of that black sticky thing. As an example, on 2.2 liter engine, could be an issue with the oil and gas separator / filter, is sending oil through air pipe, and this oil combined with smoke sticks on the EGR. I had this issue with my 2.2 Santa Fe

2007, 2.7 V6 problems after 100,000 miles, purge valve , fuel sensors, crank shaft position sensor, MAF sensor, coils and now large leak somewhere in emissions system unable to find at this point. Was very reliable from 80,000 to 165,000. I’ve replaced radiator , coils , purge valve numerous times new headlight housings , new horns , fuel position sensors, timing belts , water pump. Engine, and drive train seem bullet proof but the emissions stuff and sensors are a pain...

I have a 2011 limited with the V6.Bought new and now with about 65,00 on it. About 6 years or so ago I had the Crankshaft Position Sensor go out on me. I'd come to a stop sign or light and the vehicle would just shut off. Took a minute or so to get restarted but always got going. Shortly after that I did get a notice from Hyundai and brought it to the dealer and they changed it out N/C. Was glad for that. So far the only other somewhat problem is that I've had 3 or 4 batteries in it. Only seemed to last about 3 years. I'm 69yo and have owned many vehicles and never had a battery quit in that short of time. Now for a question, If I remember correctly, when I purchased the vehicle, the dealer mentioned the Transmission was a sealed unit and didn't need any maintenance. Last time I brought it to the dealer for my 60,000 service, they mentioned I should have it flushed out. Is that something I need if it's a sealed unit? curious about that. Thanks for the video information.

The bottom end seized solid, it was always serviced correctly with hyundai filters and synthetic oil, they recalled that same engine in every other hyundai, across all years except 2010 santa fe. ESC system recently bit the bullet and is throwing 8 seperate codes, dealer says electrical gremlins, nothing they can do. Truly a lemon vehicle.

I have a 2008 Limited with the 3.3 v6. Have 160k miles. So far, I'm on my 3rd alternator. Turns out it was common factory issue with a leaking head gasket. Dealer replaced gasket and alternator on a recall but sure enough, the mechanic did a poor job and I had oil leak all over again. Just had gasket replaced again and new alternator...again. The fuel sensor was also replaced just as described in this video. Other than the CD player dying about 8 years ago, I've done little except to replace the driver's side window control panel and the fuel door switch.

I have a 2009 Santa Fe and at start up is having issues to start, i have to try 3 or more times at startup. Apart of that if i drive my car runs with no problem but if i turn off the car and at least in minutes when i try to startup again the car statrs to shake like it is going to shut down and when i try to accelerate seems like it din’t respond to the acceleration and start to feel shaky and a heavy smell of gasoline. I’m in orlando and i don’t trust in some mechanics here, do you have an idea what can be ? I will appreciate your help

My wife has wned an 08 Santa Fe Limited from new...we've experienced none of these. We've had coil packs go out on it. One of them went and also somehow the bolt was no longer threadable into the block, so i had to helicoil it to fix it. The weather stripping on the two rear doors has failed (We're in the Pacific North West so the climate is pretty tame) but evidently they like to shrink and i'm replacing those now. We had a moment where a light leak of the power steering happened - dealer wanted to replace the power steering pump for like $1500 but we topped up the power steering fluid once and we're good to go. The amplifier under the seat went out as well (we ended up thinking it was the head unit, swapped itout, then discovered it was the amp and wired around it). Ultimately the car has been pretty reliable, but we stopped driving it last year. Still own it as a third spare car. Oh, and the trunk struts are pretty shot and won't raise the trunk the whole way automatically.

I have a 2011 Hyundai Santa Fe gls. It has a check engine light on and I'm getting an error code P0125 and P0128. I have replaced the thermostat (3 times), the thermostat housing, and the sensor. I have also added coolant to the radiator and the reservoir. The check engine light went away for a few weeks but it's back on this morning. with the same errors as above. What else could it be?

I have an 2007 with 90K on it and have had two of these issues. The fuel sensor thingy and the Crank Position sensor errors. I had the work done on the fuel sensor as it was causing my engine light to come on and I couldn't pass the emissions testing in Ohio with that light on.....(total Crock). The Crank Position sensor reading has been sporadic and I haven't had to replace that yet. Overall a very solid vehicle. I've done all the routine maintenance and the only other expenses have been 3 wheel bearings that failed likely due to Ohio road salt. It has a rather stiff ride and appears to be designed to have some weight in it to smooth it out. I have the larger V6 in this FWD. Would like to keep this going for a long time.

On my 2011, 2.4 DOHC, I did have an alternator start to go bad with bearing noise. Of course, the serpentine belt was dry rot, too. There was also the downstream O2 sensor and EVAP leak, due to an abridged hose in the EVAP purge setup. The alternator proved to be a headache, because the AC line had to be disconnected on tip, to extract the alternator. That included a discharge of the AC system and recharge once put back together, so doing a driveway replacement is not practical, unless you have an AC recovery machine.

The 2007 is ours. Head gasket issues, three times over. Front control arm weather cracking, suspension creaking, and the gas tank float broke so we use trip kilometers to measure out fuel now. It's the one equipped with the 5 speed auto.

Question? I have an Santa Fe 2008 2.7 GLS, I just replace a few things already, timing belt, water pump , fuel pump, engine gasket, purge valve, new front suspension, if you replace the suspension kit are you supposed to replace inner intermediate shaft? After i replaced the cv axle, my shake a bit is a pain, but I will say the car is great with engine and transmission..that’s why I’m replacing all these part, because is only 155,000 miles..

2007 3.3 cooling fans come on with AC, never come on without AC, temp on gauge little less then middle. When shut off engine radiator stays hot for like 6-8 hours. can feel the heat. I would think at that heat the fans should turn on even when car is off but never does. Is there a sensor that can be replaced to get those fans running if so where would it be located.?
