Hyundai Starex (Gen. 3) [continued]

**M1Super90** · October 26th, 2010 12:48 PM

Hi everyone. I have a disturbing sound with my 2004 CRDI Starex when turning while breaking. Sound like a metal to metal contact. Normally when backing or moving out from parking. I have replaced all upper suspension assembly and seamed the Brake caliper bolts. Sounds only while breaking and turning at low speed.

Can anyone would possibly know what the problem is? Appreciate your comments.

Hi Bro,

Could you consider the Gen 4 a daily driver?

The Gen 3, IMO, is a good daily driver. Dimensions are just right, and even if you're all alone, it doesn't feel that big. But how about the Gen 4?

Sir try nyo palitan pati lower suspension arm ng original parts. With regards to no power I had mine clean all intake. Ang kapal ng carbon deposits sa EGR at manifold. Ang laki ng improvement in power and fuel consumption.

Ser, napalitan na din yung suspension arm. SaKto mukhang kelangan cleaning ng intake. Sabi ng talyer yan ang sakit ng starex- carbon build-up? Saan ka nagpagawa n how much?

Please help newbee palang po. Just replaced my dirty fuel filter last week, after replacement it noticed in hard restarting for almost 1 day used. For the second day in the morning I started my Starex CRDI 2005 model and won't start until now. What are the possible defects since the fuel filter had been replaced with new one? I pump the fuel filter pump just to remove the air bubbles, there's a fuel going to fuel pump. During starting, there’s a low pressure getting in to injectors. And today during push starting it will start but I wonder the engine check indicates in the dashboard, my starex before is in top condition, the 100% caused is a dirty fuel filter. Please help of what are the specific defects with my crdi engine. Your assistance is high appreciated. Thanks and more power

Newbee po, anybody advise me Re:Starex CRDI 2005 ko. 1st owner me, 52K palang mileage starex ko. One in the morning I discover na hard starting sya, I pump the fuel pump pero hindi tumitigas, so suspect ko agad fuel filter barado, pinalitan ko agad. The old fuel filter barado nga sobrang dumi. Sa Petron Xmax lang me nagpapakarga, siguro naglose track me sa fuel filter, sobrang busy kasi last few months ago kaya forget ko na PMS starex ko, gamit lang me ng gamit. Pag tinulak start sya agad, lumakas ang hatak kc bago fuel filter, nakatakbo lang ako ng 80kph parang may malakas na umu-ogong na hangin sa makina tapos nag shut down and engine, buti nalang na control ko pa, tapos pagtulak andar naman sya uli, wonder lang me umilaw na engine check sa dashboard, tapos medyo mausok na puti at maanghang sa mata. Until now andar parin sya pag itulak, ang problem lang, pag battery starting ayaw talaga umandar, bumili na me new motolite gold battery pero ganun parin, lakas naman starter, bilis nga redondo, pero ayaw lang talaga umandar pag battery starting. thanks so much bro sa reply you.

hey guys, im about ready to change tires on my GRX again. 2 years ago I bought Bridgestone dueler h/t but wasnt really satisfied with the ride (better than the original kumho hi-miler, but not by much). do you have any suggestions with tire choice? I will likely keep the stock 205/70R15 size.

you could try Michelin Agilis w/ the exact tire size of your choice, before it was Vanpix (phase-out) as mentioned in the other forum site that is best for our ride as long as it has a 100 load rating w/ 6 ply is enough for a comfortable ride coupled w/ nitro air, good choice for me...this will be my next replacement once my tires is worn out.
