12:53 That's incorrect my friend, the sensor is actually behind the bumper cover and held on by 2 thin aluminum brackets. Now that solid plastic actually protects the radar from incoming debris from the road and if u look either to the left or right of that solid plastic through the honeycomb holes, you will see the radar sensor about 5 inches behind. I hit a cone on the i95 that was capsized on the roadway and the forward collision light came on almost immediately. I checked it out and the radar itself wasn't damaged but it's flimsy bracket was and I had to staighten it in order to fix the malfunction.

I really like your reviews You're very in depth about the mechanicals on vehicles and I definitely appreciate that. However I kind of find of interesting that almost everything that you pointed out as being sort of a negative... old school, not new tech..etc are things I'm glad they are doing that way. Mechanical water pump, simple easy to fix and inexpensive to replace, old-fashioned vacuum brake booster.. good, it works it always has worked and it rarely fails, and gives better feedback to braking than electro assisted brakes . Having the PCV NOT built into the intake manifold? Why the hell would I WANT that? . Because they eventually plug up and then you've got to take the intake manifold off. VW does this crap but it's in the valve cover, and you have to replace the whole valve cover for $200, or I can go to O'Reilly and buy a $3 PCV. Everything you mentioned or sort of implied was old school and not new technology seems like a good thing to me. Again I'm not criticizing your mechanical aptitude or anything like that I think you did a fantastic job pointing out very important details of the vehicle. I just find it interesting that your take on some of these older technologies seems to be negative when in reality it should be a positive at least in my opinion. But maybe I'm just weird because I tend to keep my cars for 350,000 miles.

@@FUELEDNOVA718 found out what it was - turbo wastegate rattle. You can fix it for 50 cents yourself, just buy a spring and tension the arm that goes from the servo to the wastegate. It is located just behind the motor at the top. Very easily accesible, just remove the top beauty cover and insulating foam. Connect one sping end on a rod that supports the plastic cover, the other end on the arm itself. Suggest adding a little of hose rubber to it, a small, mby 3mm hose, so that it would not scratch in time. That wastegate has a spring from the start, but it is just too weak on some turbos and need a bit of help. Ride it till you hit high mileage, then remove the spring, report the wastegate rattle, get new turbo, profit!

Do they still make this cars? I thought they have the new palisade

Santa Fe and Palisade are SUV's from different classes. The Palisade is bigger. So the Palisade did not replace the Santa Fe.

At least a plastic lower radiator support won't rust out on you like my old 4th gen Maxima. I would like to see a mechanical review on the Hyundai Lambda II 3.3L GDI V6 if you can get your hands on one.

Speedkar99 is this still a great value or not?? I like that it doesn’t have a CVT and it’s simple thought about 18-19 Highlander but hear they have issues with there trans idk but overall is this best value for 25000-30000??

What does 5w20 vs. a lighter weight oil tell you about the engine? Looser machining tolerances?
