2005 Hyundai Tucson Service and Repair Manual
Regular price
$42.99 USD
Unit price
The 2005 Tucson was built in two engine configurations across three trim levels, and the clearances, settings and tightening sequences Hyundai specified vary between them, so the values you work to are the ones set for this model year rather than figures carried over from an adjacent one.
Engines covered
- 2.7L V6 — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
- 2.0L inline-four — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline
Body styles covered
- 4-door sport utility
Trims covered
- GL
- GLS
- LX
Known issues on the 2005 Tucson. Seven recalls are on federal record for this model year. Two cover the parking brake: the parking brake lever ratchet pawl was not properly manufactured and may damage the teeth of the parking brake lever ratchet, and the reported consequence is the inability to engage, or the inadvertent release of, the parking brake lever. Two more cover electronic stability control, where the yaw rate sensor may become too sensitive and may recalibrate inaccurately; brake application caused by inadvertent ESP activation may result in loss of control and a crash. Two cover exterior lighting, where a malfunctioning stop lamp switch may cause the brake lights to fail to illuminate, and any of these malfunctions may lead to a crash. The seventh covers the driver frontal air bag inflator module, following static air bag deployment testing conducted by NHTSA using fifth percentile female dummies; this can cause increased risk of injury to the driver under certain crash conditions. Owners have filed 273 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 62 technical service bulletins.
Whether you are tracing a dead brake light, an ESP fault or a parking brake that will not hold, the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your 2005 Tucson are what you work from.
