#5 of 7 03 Santa Fe jerks and sometimes stalls by chris65 Nov 10, 2008 (8:42 pm)
My Santa Fe is a 2wd manual trans. I've seen this problem mentioned in the 4wd and v6 versions, anyone have it in the base model I'm driving? My local trusted mechanic can't duplicate the problem or find a source for it. My car has 65K miles, had the timing belt replaced under warranty at 40K, and 4 months ago had a new clutch and flywheel. I'm scared to drive anywhere but locally because it jerks at highway speed and twice now has died completely at only 30mph. Replies to this message: hatterasgrl (Nov 21, 2009 4:56 pm)

Replying to: chris65 (Nov 10, 2008 8:42 pm) I have an 04 4cylnd auto that has about 48k miles on it and mine was doing the same thing. I was jerking while on the highway and twice jerked and died at stoplights but both times started right back up....until it finally died completely while I was going 60 mph on the highway. VERY SCARY. It turned out to be the crank position sensor. Now it runs better than it did when I first bought it. They kept telling me it was the throttle body and that if I did the fuel injection flush that it would take care of the problem, but (even being a female , I knew that they were wrong. Glad I didn't spend a bunch of extra money on things that were not the problem. Hope this is helpful to you!
