I figured this out today, so I thought I would post some pictures up. It is actually much much easier to do on our cars, than any other Ive worked on. No tools required.
Just make sure when you take the slack out of the cable that the throttle body is completely closed.
only problem i find is it idles waaaay to high. i wanted it to stay around 1k rpm but the nearest is almost 2k rpm. which makes the car sound redic lol.

I did this because the cruise control install added just a tiny bit of slack to my throttle cable. Its gone now. This is not a means to adjust your base idle.
Idle adjustment is normally done with some kind of screw on the IACV on the intake plenum. I havent looked into adjusting the throttle on these cars. I dont even know if you ever have to.
you can, there is a screw but its has some hard core loc tite on there so the thing doesnt move. its a torx and a small one which makes it that much worse. but yeah, with my spark plugs the car does 20X better when it idles at 1100 rpm
Hi
I drive a 2005 Santa Fe GLS. It looks like a have the same issue.
Based on the pictures provided, I tried to fix the problem, but I can't find the cable under the hood.
Any thoughts?
Thx
First question is, why do you want to increase your RPM at idle?
Secondly, to answer your question, to my knowledge, the idle RPM is controlled by the computer, there is a ‘fast idle’ when you start the car and the engine is cold, then once the engine coolant and 02 sensors warm up, the idle decreases to its regular RPM. I’m not sure how to increase the idle, but some posters above have referred to a screw on the IACV, but I’ve never done this myself.
My rpm is low and during driving facing some problem ...some strange noise is coming like loose timing chain....I have installed a new timing chain kit...but the sound sometime come even while driving and just after releasing the clutch.

Had this problem last winter. Took crank shaft sensor out checked rubber washer and only one their. Sprayed stater fluid in choke no start. Spinning over but wont fire. Car won't run in the cold help.
Last time I replaced the plugs I noticed there was a lot of oil in wells 2,3. Thanks to you guys and the Internet I replaced the valve cover gasket. I opened up the valve cover and noticed that those two well gaskets were down on the well tube instead of in the valve cover like the others. I...
So when I start the car, the battery light stays on and my power steering does not work. Usually, once I put it in drive and get going the light turns off after 3 or 4 seconds and the power steering starts working after 15 to 20 seconds. Any ideas what is going on?
I searched all over the forums to find some answers but I figured I would just ask.
I've had my car about two weeks now and it was pulling to the right when I got it. I made an appointment with a local shop to have an alignment done within the week. Well, I've been back to the shop twice since...
