They're even showing some with navigation as being in transit. Could it be that navigation is actually available NOW? (It was speculated here that it would not actually be available on Santa Fes until later in the model year.)
There's something strange in their '08 pricing. Some are shown as being priced around $1000 under invoice while others are priced roughly $700 over invoice. I can't see any pattern; the ones whose numbers I looked at are all 2008 Limited AWDs.

The oil filter is just off to the side of the serpentine belt, towards the rear of the belt, it is covered by a plastic shield which needs to be taken off to remove the filter. I`ll bet the person that dreamed up this location is only let out on weekends for good behavior, ha,ha.

Some where on hyundaidealer.com is a training video on the Veracruz/SF navi system. Teaches you how to use it. I wish I had access to it.

For goodness' sake -- no wonder I couldn't find it. Thanks for the help.

When I was at the autoshow they showed 08's at around 700.00 more as far as MSRP then 07's. This is just the MSRP price though.

2008 Santa Fe - Is there a dust problem

We were just about to purchase a 2008 Santa Fe Limited and noticed that is the sun roof or window is open a little bit, there is an actual cold air breeze coming thru the door handles on both the Drivers and Passenger sides. When windows are closed it stops. We live on a gravel road and wnat to know if anyone knows if the air coming thru the door handles is filtered air or if it brings in dust? Don't want to make a mistake twice. Also does Hyundai stand behind their vehicles and help or leave you hanging like Honda?
We are trading off a Honda 2007 Odyssey because it is the dusties, dirtiest vehicle we have ever owned (even though it has never been driven with any windows open) and Honda will not do anything about it.)

Keep in mind that standard equipment has been added in 2008. For example, 2008 Limiteds come with the Infinity audio system and power moonroof as standard; both were optional in 2007.

While I don't doubt that you're feeling a draft in the areas of the door handles, I highly doubt that the drafts are actually entering the vehicle at those points. It's far more likely that they're entering through the open window or roof and ricocheting in a way that creates the illusion of entering through the handles.

No actually - the way we found it in the test drive was the salesmanl had left the sunroof opened on the back end about 1/2 inch, forgotten and closed the inside panel. We were driving and had turned off all of the heater fans so we could see if there were any noises, rattles etc and as soon as we turned off the fans, there was instantly really cole air (it was -15 outside) blowing on our arm beside the door handle. In feeling around, there was a definate air blowing thru the door handle. enough to move a kleenex. When we got back and questioned it, the salesman knew right away that he had left the sunroof cracked. He said his Hyundai car is the same. Closed it up and the cold draft stopped. We just wanted to know if someone who has a 2007/08 has taken it regularily on gravel roads and if there is any problem with a dust leak at the handles.
