Had a 2008 for many many years no issues, sold to a friend with 127K miles and he is going strong also. I think they are a very good solid car. Great highway car.
At 210,000km, I simultaneously had what seemed to be an auto transmission failure (tiptronic still sort of worked), and a major loss of power. Thought it would cost a fortune. They put then diagnostic computer on it and the source of the 'check engine light was a reading of 89C for the fuel input temp... turns to a mouse had chewed the wire ant the fuel sensor was shorting on the gearbox speed sensor. Some solder and heat shrink and it was all fixed.
My old 2008 Santa Fe GLS AWD was arguably the best vehicle I ever owned. Great ride, quiet cabin, decent mileage, and solid reliability had it serve as an excellent family and trip car for many years. I bought my ‘08 used w/50k miles on the odometer, then went on to own that thing for another 15 years and another 150k miles. It went all over the US and Mexico, it went off roading far more than it should have, it took heaps of abuse and was poorly maintained by people I lent it to for months or years at a time. Through all that, the only major work I ever had to do was replacing the timing belt (twice), and replacing oxygen sensors at various times. Also did radiator and transmission flushes, replaced differential fluids, tires, spark plugs, shocks and struts, all the usual stuff you do for any aging car. Overall I can’t complain. The bang per buck equation on this car, the amount of satisfaction and functionality the Santa Fe gave us compared to the paltry amounts of money I put into it, has made this car my personal best purchase of all time.
I have a 2008 with 183,000 miles. I changed the timing belt, water pump..etc at 98,000. I flushed and changed the transmission fluid at the same time. Only other thing I did was change the plugs at 98,000 miles. Changing the plugs cost me $300 because of where they are located. Runs like it did when new. Should I change the transmission fluid again. Transmission never a problem
I got a Hyundai Santa Fe 2.2 crdi 2009 with 200.000 km. Engine does not burn a single drop of oil. Just replaced a radiator and control arms and a couple minor things like thermostat. These cars are build like tractors
@@mehboobkhan8535 Yes front suspension i almost completely except front shock absorbers and springs. Also Condensor replaced all those things by myself.
Good information thank you making the video.

I have a Hyundai Santa Fe 2007 model . I got lot of engine oil leak . I have changed the head gasket . But still problem is it . Mechanic said you should have to change main seal . But i don’t think leakage come from there . I recently changed the whole transition and seal to . Can you give some suggestions thanks
Got the same problem. Leaking engine oil between gearbox and engine. If you have this problem you need to change the rear main seal. They also have common problems with front main seal at crankshaft pulley. If its around the camshaft cover and you changed it leak can also come from camshaft seals. Oil dipstick O-ring can leak. Turbo inlet or drain pipe o rings can leak
السيارة تطفي او يتوقف المحرك فجاءة وانت ماشي على الطريق . ارطن السارة وانتظر 20 دقية تبدا تشتغل وبعد 10 دقائق تطفي مره ثانية . مع اضاءة لمبة CHIKE ENGEN ما عرفت حل لهذه المشكلة

2011 3.5L sport have had no issues other than wheel bearing, and ball joints 168000kms awd system has been really solid for me
I wish I could hear this. I have the sound to the max and can barely hear it. I own one and believe me I want to hear this information
Use the closed captions
my hyundai vibrates at the speed of 120km/h and also jerks and consumes more fuel and while jerking sometimes engine check light flashes
Great car, I have 2007 since new, 370000km on it and runs like new. Very few issues except for small suspension issues link tie rods and drop links.

Good review, I have Santa Fe diesel engine 2.2 litres I think, coolant is mixed with transmission fluid, looking milky, what could be the issue pls?
Head gasket. It's most probably mixed with coolant
I have a transmission problem, I don't know what to do 😔 Hyundai Santa Fe 2011. Should I fix it, change it, or just sell it?
My 2011 is currently getting the rear main seal fixed. I bought it from Carmart.
Awd fails due to the spline coupling between the gearbox and front transfer case turning to dust. Still works fine as a fwd van though. So I'm happy

Send your car to wash the engine.. Use it for couple of days, and see which part the leak comes from..

Would have been better if there's a display instead of that crazy music
you just scared me off!
thanks (no hirony)
Sorry, but i cant hear what narrator is saying. Simply too fast and bad speaking.
Sounds really unreliable, think 🤔i will stick with my range rover 🤔
models between 09-2013 are the good. 1st generations and 3gen have issues.
@@The_Touring_Jedi true
@@The_Touring_Jedi the 2.4 2009-2013 are good or only the 2.2d is good ?
