I recently bought a new 2009 Santa Fe Limited. I'm having a problem with a slight vabration around the 25 - 40 MPH (40 - 65 KM/H) range (city driving). It seems to me as if the car is vibrating because of how low the RPM's are at that speed. I'm not sure if the problem is related to the timing belt or transmission. I really don't want to deal with the dealership on this until I have an idea what it could be because they'll probably tell me that there's nothing wrong with the car. Any help would be appreciated? Thanks in advance.

 

have them balance the tires

 

I had the same vibration on my 2009 Santa Fe Limited at around the same speeds. The dealer was unable to balance the tires. Subsequent analysis of the tires showed that they had a flat spot. The solution was to replace the tires. The dealer replaced the tires with tires from another vehicle. That solved the problem. No more vibration.
