My Santa Fe has started losing power going up hills and on the motorway over 40 mph. There was a crack in the manifold which has been repaired, however car still loses power and is barely drivable. The machine/computer is saying it cant detect a problem, and 3 different mechanics have failed to locate the problem as well. Does anyone have the foggiest what could be causing this or has anyone experienced anything similar?
Thanks
I have just gotten my car back repaired. I was traveling in a city at slow speed when it failed, otherwise this may have been catasrophic...
I was dealing with 3 seperate entities on this, Hyundai America, Regional and the Dealer. So some patience was required. It took about a week. The Dealer of course wanted to fix all sorts of things as when doing recall or waranty work Hyundai doesn't exactly pay them the shop labor rate. Be prepared for other components to fall apart when they do the work. age related. My Bill at the end of this was $680.00 which I am now adressing further with Hyundai America. Good Luck!
and i cant find any info on that code any place

If you do go to the dealer get your rear suspension checked as there is a serious safety issue recall relating to rot. good luck!
Thank you very much
The dealer said to check this out he would have to take off the cover and send the car to a machine shop to look at the problem, if any,
What the heck is he taliking about?
Anyone out there with info would be apprciated.
I am the second owner of my 2004 SF. They have to take the engine apart and fix the #3 cylinder and valve.
You could sign up at the Hyundai tech site; the info should be in there.
So ... what did you find out? :shades:
I did recently have the timing belt replaced at a local Brakes Plus. Could the timing be out of whack?
He replaced all 6 spark plugs (they were due) and replaced the plug wires to the 3 cylinders in question (1,3,5). We could see that one of the wires was arcing and since they were original wires they really needed replacing.
We also cleaned all the fuel injectors.
We then replaced the pre-catalytic converter underneath cylinders 1,3 and 5 and the problem is still there.
The codes are:
PO300B Random Multiple Misfire Detected
PO301B Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected
PO303 Cylinder 3 Misfire Detected
PO305B Cylinder 5 Misfire Detected
PO446 Evaporative Emission System Vent Control Circuit
Any ideas?
The precat seemed to be a good place to start since only the 3 cylinders above it were misfiring.
Thanks in advance
