2007 Hyundai Santa Fe Owner Comments

problem #4

Oct 212016

Santa Fe 2.7L V6

  • Manual transmission
  • 196,000 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

code reader reports #5 misfire even after spark plugs changed.

After emergency braking on freeway, engine in my 5 speed cut off, popped clutch in 4th gear at 40 mph and engine/transmission jumped shudder and hesitated while I could only get 35-45 mph max in any gear, 2 minutes later car coasted to a stop. will only run for 1-2 minutes before stalling out again and 25 mph max is best it'll do now. Thank God, I made it to my parents' house.

had spark plugs replaced, still intermittent shudder and hesitation in my 5 spd vehicle. still reports #5 misfire with code reader. now car won't accelerate above 25 mph, and cuts off/stalls to a stop after 2 minutes no matter what gear I select. I hate this car, how does a recall get initiated?

problem #1

Jan 222009

Santa Fe 4WD 2.7L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 35,000 miles

Ignition Coil No 5 is on top of the spark plug No 5, under the air intake, and to replace it, it took 3 hours labor. paying for stupid engine design.
