#37 of 244 Daytime Running Lights by retiredpilot Dec 18, 2006 (5:31 pm)
Just a short note for solowalker To see is a blessing, to be seen helps prevent accidents. Thanks to davesuv. You saved me from looking up the statistics that prove beyond a shadow of a doubt the value of daytime running lights.

Purchased a Santa Fe Limited today and after 300 miles, the trip indicator showed 22.1 mpg; I'll find out how accurate that is when I fill up in the morning.
#40 of 244 2007 Limited Santa Fe Concerns by pedro6 Jan 24, 2007 (6:08 am)
I now drive a 2007 top of line Santa Fe, however few thing that I find with this car that are unusual. Since the car has a sun roof, when you open the doors, the only interior light that turns on, is way in the back of the car, for some reason the map lights do not turn on when you open the doors, at night you can not see the cabin. The other thing is that my son complains that while he is watching a movie, the screen turns black any ideas?. Also the A/C, (3 times back to the dealer to be fix with only 2000 miles), while driving the ac stops cooling and only blows regular air, only once I turn the car off and on it would work again for a while. The last thing is a noise that the car makes after I drive away one block, I feel and hear a noise around the accelerator, like something arming??? Any tips?

Since the car has a sun roof, when you open the doors, the only interior light that turns on, is way in the back of the car, for some reason the map lights do not turn on when you open the doors, at night you can not see the front cabin. The other thing is that my son complains that while he is watching a movie, the screen turns black any ideas why?. Also the A/C, (3 times back to the dealer to be fix with only 2000 miles), while driving the a/c stops cooling and only blows regular air, I have to turn the car off and back in order to work again for a while. The last thing is a noise that the car makes after I drive away one block, I feel and hear a noise around the accelerator, like something arming??? Any tips? I had another noise from there too, however it was a nut that need it adjustemt, it was resolved.

#45 of 244 Day 2 by roudy1 Jan 24, 2007 (10:03 pm)
When I filled up this morning, my computation showed 22.3 instead of the 22.1 that the trip computer showed, so it appears the computer is pretty accurate. Drove another 300 miles today and the computer showed 22.9. At one point today, my mpg was up to 27.0, but then I did quite a bit of city driving and it dropped. Looks like I'm in for a couple of hundred miles again tomorrow, but it will be all freeway driving and I'll finally be able to use the cruise control since I'm over 500 miles.

#46 of 244 Re: In the Dark by elosonegro Jan 29, 2007 (11:18 pm)
Replying to: tidester (Jul 29, 2006 10:02 pm) Picked up the SF Lim. w/touring and took it to Lake Tahoe the next day. It handled well with decent power and surefooted on packed snow and ice. It was everything I expected from the many reviews I read prior to purchase. The only thing I was in the dark about was the lack of interior lighting, not the fancy blue accents, just the basic stuff. There is no illumination in the front aside from the map lights. Am I missing something? Also, outside temp. display registered 140 deg. and is now stuck at 68 deg.- no worries. Thanks.
