2001 Hyundai Santa Fe Service and Repair Manual
Every specification in this factory service and repair manual was published by Hyundai for the 2001 Santa Fe specifically — it is matched to this exact year, engine and trim, so the torque value or clearance you look up is the one written for your vehicle rather than a near-match carried over from another model year.

Known issues on the 2001 Santa Fe. Three recalls are on federal record for this model year. One is a labeling compliance recall: certain sport utility vehicles fail to comply with Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 120, which governs tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars, because the tire pressure labels do not contain the information required by the standard. The second covers the rear suspension on vehicles originally sold in or currently registered in certain states — if the corrosion is allowed to progress, the rear trailing arm may fracture while driving. The third is an electrical system recall: on certain sport utility vehicles equipped with 2.7 liter V-6 engines, improperly manufactured crankshaft position sensors were installed, and a damaged CPS capacitor could result in engine stalling. Owners have filed 293 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 129 technical service bulletins.
Whether the job is a stalling complaint on the 2.7L V6, a corrosion check on the rear trailing arms, or ordinary scheduled maintenance, this manual holds the work to Hyundai's own procedure and the exact specification for the 2001 Santa Fe.
