Having problems with the radio reception in AM. Lots of static and intermit reception. Any suggestion on how to fix, or check?

When traveling up I-5 in Calif. traveling about 75MPH, I hear an eary screeching sound. The wind was towards me at about 25MPH so the combined speed was around 100. When I slowed to about 65 the sound went away. No, it wasn't a siren for going too fast!! Anyone have similar noises?

Just bought a 2007 Entourage Limited in Sept. 2007 and I should of said something before I took possession of it the next day: when my wife and I first took the test drive I noticed when the salesman first started the engine there was a pretty loud "tapping" sound commencing to last about 5 seconds. "Well I thought, must be just that it was sitting on the lot for so long and the...

I am having a heat related problem with CD player and burned CD’s. If van is in sun and a burned CD is inserted, CD will error on upper tracks after playing approximately 5 minutes. If CD player is cool, the same CD will play completely through. The dealer has replaced the CD player twice and this has not corrected the problem. I need to get it back to the dealer and I believe they are planing to...

I hate to start my forum membership here with a complaint, but I need to get some answers. I purchased a new 2007 Hyundai Entourage in April or May of last year. We have had some minor problems such as the power doors not always latching, rear spoiler gasket, etc. Nothing that even gave enough of a problem to take it to the dealer (although I will watch for a TSB on the door problem).

I just bought a 2007 Entourage that didn't come with a DVD player....so I payed for the dealer to install one.

OMG -- I just paid big bucks to have an FM-transmitter installed -- it sounds terrible. Did those of you who bought the van's with the dvd player have an fm-transmitter?

I purchased my Entourage in April or May of 2006. Started experiencing squeeks in the rear...maybe hatch...in December (10,000 miles) of that same year. I have since visited my dealer 4 times to correct. The problem still exists and I am scheduled to speak with the GM and SM this coming Saturday, June( 16,000 miles). Up to this point, I have been quite pleasant, but that is about to change. ...

Because existing sources of auto reliability information left much to be desired, in late 2005 I started conducting my own reliability research at . TrueDelta reports absolute stats like "trips to the shop" that make the differences between cars much clearer. Results are updated four times a year, so it's possible to provide reliability information on new models quickly. Also, any...

I have Hyundai Entourage, when taking right turns that are slightly elevated for e.g. driving into my drive way, I get grinding/clunky noise from the front on the driver side. It is like dragging metal shovel on side walk/

I took it to the dealer, initially they suspected strut on the passenger side and replaced it but the noise was still there...then they replaced tie end joint...and...

Hi all - I am having some leak issues with my 07 Entourage. It is less than one year old and has 10,000 miles on it. Looks like it is transmission fluid and something else on the other side. How the heck can this happen on a new vehicle? Anyone else seeing this?

This is the second issue that I have had so far. The first one was the bad rotors at 400 miles. They had to be replaced...

Has anyone with an 07 Entourage had a problem with their electric sliding side doors? Mine recently started to not close when told to do so.

What happens is when the door is told to close (via remote or any other door button, or external handle) the door attempts to close, closes, clicks a couple of times, then automatically opens back up again.

It is now to the point that...

I few months ago, I purchased the brand new Entourage. I did so because I owned a Santa Fe and loved it, plus I like the warrenty that Hyundai offers.

About a thousand miles in with the new van, I noticed that I was not getting the gas mileage that was advertised (18-25). I am getting significantly less, in between 12 - 14. I get 12 when the air conditioning is running and 14 when...

Originally, I discovered this forum while looking for advice on changing the cabin air filter on my '07 Entourage. I only wish that I had found all of you smart folks before I used a pair of pliers in an attempt to remove the little black hinge stoppers inside the glove box. Or, more precisely, before I smacked my knuckles with the pliers, and taught my grandsons some words that I will pay for...

Hello all,

My father-in-law is considering the Entourage and needs to know if 3-4 4x8 sheets of sheet rock will fit.

He is also curious about towing capability.

Thanks,

Has anyone found a source for dedicated winter wheels ?

I am a happy owner of a 2002 Santa Fe, with 4WD. I would like to get an Entourage, for the cargo room and ride but as it does not come in 4WD, I'm afraid of how it might handle in the snow. The Santa Fe handles great in snow. Any opinions?

Hey,

Anyone one have one of these installed? I got the wife one for Christmas and due to backups in installs we just got it installed.

The problem is that when you start the vehicle, the doors unlock. Not very secure to start it up in a parking lot a block away if anyone walking by can just hop in.

Talked to our dealer and they say they cannot disable what ever...

It is hard to exactly describe. The van has just 3800 miles, and we have been sensing this since around 500 miles.

At very low speeds, it feels like the van bumps down the road. The bumping increases with speed. Between 30-35 mph, it feels like it is "chugging" to get to 40mph. Is this a transmission thing? At higher speeds it turns into vibration, felt in the seat and...

Ever since I bought our Entourage the Low Beam headlights shine too high. The low beams are bright but get cut off abruptly at a fixed height. The height line were the cutoff occurs happens to be high enough that it is blinding oncoming drivers and drivers that I'm following. I constantly get flashed by oncoming drivers or they just turn on their high beams for revenge. I asked the dealer...

Hello all. Just jumped into the forums by researching and eventually purchasing a 2008 Entourage Limited 2 days ago. Wish there was a little more info out there about the van, but I am sure with time things will fill out as the reception to the vans warms up.

So far the van is only a day old but started to document my experiences with the my new Hyundai for others to view and ask...

Hi Guys.

I'm getting some running boards put on the car and am gonna be putting clearance lights on the outsides of the boards - 3 little orange lights per board (L&R).

I'm just gonna tap into the parking lights wiring to do this, but does anyone have a schematic for the lighting?

Possibly a scan of a workshop manual someone can email me?

Hi All
As we only ahve the trajet in the uk which is no longer sold i was woundering what the kia sedona is like which as you know is the same as the entourage in the states.

Anyone happen to know the Gross Combined Weight Rating (GCWR) for the 2007 or 2008 Hyundai Entourage. I have spoken with the dealer's service dept & Hyundai Customer Service and they did not have this information.

Thanks

Hey all. One of the main knocks on the Entourage is the "body lean" on corners. I think overall that the van rides real nice,but do see that when cornering or riding on the twisties there is a little too much lean.

Anyone know about any suspension upgrades that would address this? Just imagine how sweet the ride would be with tight cornering! ...

i own a santa fe, and was wondering ifthe Entourage had the same problem as the 2007 santa fe's. That the front maplights dont come on with the door?

Hi all - I have about 190 miles on my new Entourage SE and I noticed that when braking there is a vibration that is pretty noticeable. I looked at the rotors last night in my garage and there are 4 or 5 score marks on each surface of the front rotors. There are none on the back rotors. There is no way that could be normal is there? Is that a symptom or the cause of the vibration? If any of...

I have an Entourage with 37800 miles. When the A/C is set on Max and I shut off the engine, I hear a flapping noise 3-5 times. I wonder if their is an air diverter which is held in place with vacuum pressure which is released when the engine goes off. Is there a way to silence this sound?

Hyundai is revamping their site. The Entourage is now added as an 08. The rest should follow soon. Bluetooth is now an option. Only 325 USD. GLS and Limited can get DVD player and 660W Logic7 Audio system.

[SIZE=7][COLOR=blue][B] WILL the ENTOURAGE still be in production come 2008? We've seen conflicting reports of HYUNDAI replacing it with a new Model. However they brag about having the SAFEST Mini-Van on the Highway. WHy if you make the BEST of a style would you not continue to make it? THis supposed CodeNamed "CV" automobile that "might" be its replacement, have...

im looking to buy a minivan before 2k6 ends to accomodate space for my family. i currently own '01 nissan sentra gxe and liked its performance and mpg. even so, i got turned off because i felt that after reaching 36kmi, it is starting to break up (yeah, just after the warranty expires); that would cost me more money to repair. it is now only at 57kmi; and i'm getting worried of my...

My Entourage is great, except for what seems to be an excessive engine drone even on the highway under very light acceleration with the cruise control on.

My wife and I noticed this issue separately and swear it was not this way when new.

The dealer was very helpful and replaced the rear tailpipe (per Hyundai instructions)
They said give it some time and bring it back if...

Hi,

I was hoping someone could validate some information.
In looking at the design of the 3.8 having the filter on the top I am assuming that after a set amount of time all of the oil is the filter chamber will drain back into the engine. With that said would it be normal to hear the engine tap for the 1st second or so until oil pressure builds back into the filter assembly. I was...

Hello, my wife and I are seriously considering buying an Entourage after test driving a comparable 2007 Honda Odyssey and an '07 Sedona (and looking at the '08 Caravan & Toyota Sienna).

The dealer told us that the '08 Entourage was EXACTLY the same as the '07's. Does anyone happen to have any info on the '08's by chance? The dealer wouldnt' share...

Hi all. I bought an Entourage SE back in February and have noticed that it seems to ride kind of rough when it starts each time. It seems to smooth out after a while, and I was wondering if this is a just how the Entourages are or if I have a problem. It feels kind of bumpy when the car first starts and for the next few minutes/miles, but seems to go away after a few minutes. Has anyone else...

We just bought a 2007 Entourage with the 6 speaker, single cd setup. Does anyone know the power output of the headunit or the size of the front door speakers? Are the front speakers components or are they standard speakers in the door?

Hi guys and gals,

I purchased my 2007 Entrouage Gl back in August, actually was the first to purchase at my dealership.

I have had an ongoing issue with the van however. In low speed breaking situations (ie; traffic 5-10mph) I hear a squeeking sound when I slowly apply pressure to the brake, or release the brake. It happens mostly when there is moisture on the ground/air....

Having driven (Dodge Caravan) minivans with 'Auto delay off' headlights for many years, we just assumed our new Entourage would have this feature, and were astounded to discover that it does not. It is a feature that we really like. A Google search seems to indicate that US models of Entourage have the Auto Delay Off, but Canadian models do not. Can anyone comment on this? Thanks.

heres an email from HYUNDAI uk which i got today regarding replacement fo the Trajet .



Thank you for your recent enquiry regarding the Entourage.

There are currently no plans at present for this model to be marketed within the UK.

I have been advised of the possibility that vehicle production of the Entourage may be adapted for the UK market in the...

How much does the Entourage usually go for? $1000 under invoce?

I went to my dealer yesterday to get a fuel filter replaced, since the maintenance log says it was due at 37,500 miles. I normally go to Jiffy Lube for maintenance, but they said they couldn't since the fuel filter is in the gas tank. Anyway, My dealer said that they didn't have filter in stock, but not to worry as it was not required until 100,000 miles.

Another question, they...

Could someone tell me how high it is from flat on the rear floor to the top of the tailgate?

Is there anyone else who is having problems with their transmission? I have had my Entourage only 2 months now, and wish I had never purchased it. The transmission thumps between 1st and 2nd gear, most of the time completely misses third gear, gets stuck in 4th gear and upshifts rather than downshifts when you accelerate and need a little more power. I have been back to the dealer on several...
