I have a 2005 sante fe. Sometimes when I go to pass on the open highway the tranny seems to slip and rev before it engage's the passing gear. It has happened starting off from a stop light too. Is this normal. It feels like it needs a sec or two to catch up to the command to go...lol
Any one else find this with their sante fe's or know of an adjustment

I also have an '05 Santa Fe and my problem seems to be when shifting from 2nd to 3rd (about 25-30 mph), the problem is intermittent. The engine races, the tach jumps and I just coast along. When I remove my foot from the gas pedal the engine slows down, the tach jumps and it shifts gears smoothly. I took it to the dealer (they can't replicate the problem) and they had a service bulletin to reset the Learning Module, which seemed to correct the problem for about two days. The problem is back and I called the dealer and the service manager said I should log whenever it happens and the conditions. I think this response is BS, but he said unless they can reproduce the problem they can't really diagnose it and fix it. Anybody else have any ideas on this.
Thanks.
