Check the Hyundai Online Shop Manuals Access discussion for links. This post would be a good start:

There's some other links in the Online Repair Manuals guide, but I think most owners are pretty happy with the free offerings straight from Hyundai.

Go directly to the Hyundai website and you can get the only factory service manual that there is for $80.00 US. It's the only shop manual!!!

Is there a way to remove the windshield wipers for replacement. Just the rubber part not the entire arm. I have done my other cars in the past but I can't seem to remove the original wipers for replacement in my Santa Fe? The clip or holder seems to be tight.

HELP!!!! SANTA FE 2002 4 cyl MAJOR PROBLEM NEED HELP FROM PROFESSIONAL by jluc13

I have a 2002 Santa Fe 4 cyl engine.
Prior to my 100 mile warranty full warranty under a lawsuit expired I began feeling problems when at a stop or when driving and accelerating that there was no power, it would lurch or just appear like nothing was happening and then it would lurch forward and gear in. I was told by dealer if i cant replicate the problem and no check engine lights come on there is nothing they can do.
NOW THE STORY BEGINS::
Late March 2007 107K?? miles I am under a 10y/100K & powertrain 12yr/120K mile warranty due to a lawsuit. I brought it in and same problem and it was noticeable and codes went off and they replaced my transmission under warranty. Some errors in installation and missing parts we decided to take to another dealer. they finished the work correctly and it still displayed the same issues. so again in MID June 2007, codes fly and another transmission has installed, but the problems are resolved for a short time and then it begins again except i take it in and i am being told its how i drive.... wrong.... AUgust same thing occurs the next day i got my car back from taking it in time and time again except now im driving and it drives 35 and then shuts down in middle of traffic i was told i should get a new battery ...... i did fast and it ran fine for a few weeks with very little noticable but i couldnt replicate it enough to prove to mechanic at the dealer. finally again dec 2007 they had my car for nearly a month i replaced the following parts that may relate to the concer:
2 crankshaft sensors seal
trans mission service timing belt not sure when but maybe 30K miles before this problem was first taken into the shop in March 2007.
currently in december 2007:
crankshaft sensor again due to seal leak and seal
balance belt
timing belt
o2 sensor
electronic control module (ECM)
catalytic converter
coil and spark plugs
 
i get car back and bolts loose and I took it back and they fixed bolt but i told them it was shifting funny
for 3 weeks it slowly began to come back again and this time worse then ever...safety issue too
im driving from stop or accelerate or drive to accelerate and it wont shift and it ramps up to 5000 - 6000 RPM so i back off pedal and sometimes it shifts and sometimes it doesnt. feels stuck at 65 and wont shift gears....then goes to 30 shakes and loud ping and rattle noise from the engine or under the front of the car. i cant speed up it shakes and feel wont shift and wants to cut out. I have this same problem and now it is worse then starting in March 2007 when was able to replicate it.
THE SAFETY ISSUE is I was on highway just last saturday and driving 65 with semi behind me and it shuts down to 30 MPH shakes almost stops semi almost ran me over as i try to pull off road.
 
Finally, the same codes in dec2007 popped up as it does now..... P0320 /P0300
now it is back in shop and their techline suggested a fuel reglator on the gas line. i wait 3 days for a part and today they say it isnt it thats wrong.... now they are saying a crankshaft blade.
PS : mass airflow was checked and no codes are coming up on the transmission. before codes did pop up and now the codes are P0320 & P0300
input and output speed sensors would pull codes.
 
I AM TRYING TO GET MANY HEADS TOGETHER TO FIGURE OUT THIS PROBLEM OUT CAUSE HYUNDAI CANT FIGURE IT OUT AND THIS CAR IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE TO DRIVE.
 PLEASE RESPOND IMMEDIATELY IT IS STILL IN THE SHOP.

The clutch is slipping badly on my my 2003 Sata Fe with 5 speed manual transmission. The vehicle has 46,000 miles. Is there a way to get Hyundai to cover this repair? Is this normal wear & tear? It seems to me the clutch shoulkd last for more than 46,000 miles. If it is not covered by warranty, is it better to get the clutch repair done at a clutch specialty shop or at the Hyundai dealer?
Is there a better clutch replacement available in the "after market" than the one that Hyndai will use?
I've read a post from 1/7/08 on car survey.org that stated that the clutch on his 2004 Santa Fe went out at 43,000 and he was given a new clutch by Hyndai, free of charge beacuse the original clutch was defective: is was a "double mass flywheel" which caused overheating and accelerated clutch wear.
Does anyone have any information about this "defect"?

My 2003 Santa Fe with 46,000 miles has a badly slipping clutch.
I could not locate the TSB you refer to in your 7/11/06 post. Does anyone have any information about this TSB? Anyone have information about how to get Hyundai to pay for the clutch repair?
If Hyundai won't pay for the clutch repair, is it better to get the repair done at an independent clutch specialty shop than at Hyundai?
