has anyone experienced a clunking noise when your veracruz downshifts between 20mph and 0mph. i noticed this more when it's cold ,but i don't think it should do it.
i'll take it to the dealer when i get time. it's a 2007 v6 veracruz

haven't noticed a clunk but then again our Veracruz has only 75 miles.
 
It appears there is no way of checking Transmission fluid???? can anyone confirm this? I checked the manual and engine compartment....No dipstick for tranny found.

1st drive in snow by mjb56

Just got back from a trip in this first snowstorm to hit the midwest this year. There's about 5 inches out, blowing and now ice and freezing rain. This thing (07 GLS AWD) handles phenomenally in the snow. The combination of AWD, ECS and Traction control make this one of the best handling snow vehicles I've ever driven. Wow, am I ever glad I bought this vehicle.

Its a JTEKT 4WD system with Intelligent Torque Controlled Coupling.
It is not the same system as the Santa Fe uses, which is a Borg Warner.

Hey rottencar.....are you by any chance a Toyota salesman that has lost a few deals to Hyundai?
 
Just curious....
 
I have had my VC for four months and think the quality and engineering is great. I have had no problems whatsoever.
 
Coming from a Lexus RX 300 and also having a Toyota 4Runner, I have a frame of reference and a basis for my opinion. Both are great cars, and not perfect. I would say that my VC stacks up very nicely to my RX 300 and then some even with the 350 at about $9K less.
 
Have you heard about the oil foaming/sludge problem on Toyota and Lexus engines? THAT to me is far more serious risk/defect than a downshifting thump or a keyless entry that activates in your pocket. They had to extend the warranty on the engines due to that very problem.

Even the "big boys" have their problems....and, nothing is perfect.

Is one 4WD system better then the other, JTEKT vs Borg Warner?

According to Korean website similar to this site, VC is all time AWD.
 
Basically, if you don't push the buttion to lock, VC automatically controls distribution of power between rear wheel and front wheel in accordance with road conditon. I remember that maximum ratio is 50(rear):50(front) and minimum is 10(rear):90(front)
 
However, If you push the button to lock, VC maintains distribution of power between rear wheel and front wheel as 50:50 until its speed goes up to around 30 miles but if its speed exceeds 30 miles, the lock is automatically released and VC automatically controls the distribution again.
