Fuel pump noise by rayden19
Jun 20, 2009 (7:55 pm)
Reply
I own an 08 Santa Fe SE (2500 miles) and noticed that when I turn the Key ON - Engine OFF....the fuel pump sounds like it is running continuous (gurgling sound). It will stay doing that until I turn the key or start it. In other cars I have owned, the fuel pump simply primes and then waits for the car to be started.
 
Any ideas why this is happening?

Apparently, I found out on Wednesday, that my tires (the Original ones were covered, because when I bought my car, they gave me the Factory issued tires and I spoke to the Tire people. Mine happened to be Bridgestones. If I had kept them, they would have replaced them for free, due to the cupping issue. I was told that the tires have a life of the tire guarantee. And therefore, would have been replaced, or a big discount on the tires.

My 2005 Santa Fe 3.5 liter is currently experiencing rough idle and poor acceleration only when cold, when the engine warms up it's fine! The only code was a P0302, cylinder 2 misfire. I have read it could be a dirty or faulty fuel injector...the only problem is I don't know which one cylinder # 2 is...

was the tune up done already (spark plugs)? and a fuel system cleaning (not just pouring in something in the gas tank) do those b4 thinking about changing the injector. i suppose you do your own maintenance? If not - just ask the mechanic for the info next time you're in for service about which cylinder is which...

08 Santa Fe can not be started after a long trip by shmshen

Last Saturday, I drove the 08 Santa Fe for around a hour and stop at a gas station, turned off the engine and filled the gas. Then I tried to start it again. With the key on, I can not start it. The Check Engine/Low Oil Pressure/Check Battery light is on. (I think it is normal since the engine can not be started). Everything else seem normal, the coolant temperature gauge is normal as well.
 
Then I wait for about 20 mins and tried again, it got started without problem this time. All lights (The Check Engine/Low Oil Pressure/Check Battery light) were off when the engine got started. I drove for another 1 hour and the same thing happened again.
 
Does anybody have similar problem? Thanks.

my 1st guess would be fuel pump problem or neutral safety switch problem because there is no svc eng light present. both those things could shut you own - but then - so could so many others. those 2 things though - don't present a svc engine light... get to the dealer quick b4 you can't start at all... could also be a relay going bad or malfunctioning security system - get checked b4 you get stranded...

Sounds like a classic case of vapor lock, although cars these days are supposed to be immune. How hot was it that day? Cold gasoline into a hot car could do that. Check this out:

I went to the dealer yesterday and they checked but could not find any error code. Then they drove it for 40 miles and tried to reproduce the problem, but they can not reproduce it and asked to take it back when it happens more often in the future. So there is no answer now.

Funny. We have an '07 SF and had that same problem last summer. Maybe did it a handfull of times, so when I brought it to the dealer for service, they checked it out and found nothing either.
The only thing the dealer thought, was that the signal from the key to the ECM may have been faulty, so he checked that out and all seemed well. We started using the spare key and haven't had any trouble since. Get the dealer to check your keys. They have a little chip in them that the ECM has to read. Gotta love computers! Good luck! Hope this helps.....
