Hey guys, my V's born date is 10/18/11 and I too feel I have that 1st-2nd gear acceleration lag BS. I still think it's a "glitch" with the DBW system. There's gotta be something Hyundai can do to reprogram this lag if that's the issue. Case-in-point: My GSR I street-tuned used to have a sort of a lag between every gear. I went in and adjusted the fueling and timing in the entire expanded resolution map and slowly but surely I got it to have instant acceleration without lag in any gear from any gear. I also shaved about a second off the quarter just by fixing that lag I had. Now if I can do that with share-ware on a chipped P72, why can't Hyundai do that with all their fancy-schmancy stuff they have in 2012? Answer me that Batman...
08/19/2011 purchased 10/17/2011 with less than 3 miles on it, Ironman Silver Style/Tech automatic -- not sure if it is me or the car, but the 1st and 2nd gear thing isn't as noticeable as it was at first. Maybe I just have my pedal to the metal earlier. Whatever -- I love it.
When you open the hatchback, the cover (underside of the tonneau cover) comes up and there is a sticker on the left hand side of mine that has a date on it. It's the size of a postage stamp with a date on it. I suppose this is the "birth certificate". It probably appears in a few more places, if not on paperwork.
Do I ask if they would take the film off for me and switch out the seats with another car with cloth seats? They have four cars in stock.. three are automatic. Are the bubbling seats vinyl or cloth?
Another Jul/29/2011 here, PB3's car and mine were litter mates!
I'll squash the thought on the build date being the cause of engine woes/lag, mine has never missed a beat, perfect shift between 1-2 every time as long as I'm on the money and not missing it.
Mine was born on 11/18/11 and when I called the dealership with the VIN, they told me mine was uptodate and had no TSB out for it. And I don't have throttle issue. It is normal.
born 7/30/11
purchased 10/9/11
still loving it!!!!
