I bought my 2008 Santa Fe in the middle on this May. Now it has 1650miles. It was great until yesterday (September 20). When I started, turned the transmission to “D”, pressed the gas pedal. Then I can feel the car was jerking. Apparently the transmission was working not smoothly. It used to work very smoothly until yesterday. After the first incident, I tried the “R” and it also had the same problem. The problem usually happens when I start the car and sometimes at the stop sign after a full stop. Then I try something in the uphill (but it has a very small grade): drive to a position in the uphill, stop and park it. Then switch to “D” again, the car CANNOT stop and start retrogress. At this time, I push the gas pedal harder, then the car begins move forward with jerking. This is a brand new car and I did not drive it a lot. I do not do oil change or any maintenance yet. Went to my nearest dealer this morning and they said there IS a problem in the transmission: No codes in system - internal mechanical concern - low pressure at idle possible pump failure in trans. But they refused to work on it and advice me to bring it to the dealer where I purchased it. So I drove to the dealer where I bought and still waiting for their test. That is bad, it only has slight above 1600 miles Does anybody have the similar problem?

Replying to: drwoodr (Oct 01, 2008 5:20 pm) I burned data CDs. I even tried CDs made using Windows Media Player 11 and iTunes. iTunes puts all files on the root folder, while WMP retains the folder structure organized by artist and albums. WMP also includes a playlist on the CD. CDs made using Nero were pure data CDs with only MP3 files, and no playlists. All have the same problem - no song titles, and worse yet, all songs say "TRACK 1" no matter what song is playing. I can skip forward and back, but the display seems like it has lost all of its intelligence. On a slightly related note, it has problems skipping over songs on regular audio CDs. It will play though, but once I skip a song, it gets stuck and loops at the first 1 second of any song indefinitely. I find it hard to believe this and the MP3 problem are related, but maybe they are. Looks like I need to make a trip to the dealer to see what the other SF's do with these same CDs. |

Replying to: rick2456 (Sep 29, 2008 4:43 am) After the transmission replacement, I notice the MPG is lower than before. For all highway drive, I can get 24mpg now while it was 25mpg before. I get 16mpg in the city while it was 19mpg before. I went to the dealer and they said the car's computer needs time to adjust to the new transmission and I should get better MPG after several thousands miles. And there is a small dent in the door after the replacement. I do not notice that when I picked it up after they replaced the transmission. Should I report this to Hyundai customer service? I also notice that the noise is higher than before when driving on the highway. But it is not very significant. Maybe it is just psychological effect?
