Hyundai Terracan FAQs
Upgrading from Hyundai Terracan
Isuzu is renowned for its diesel engines and I would have no hesitation in going in that direction, particularly for towing, although there is little savings to be had given the low mileage you're doing. Generally 4WDs hold their value better than equivalent 2WDs. For alternatives you could look at the Kia Sorento or Hyundai Santa Fe.

Have the cooling system flushed, making sure the radiator is clean, and replace use quality coolant. Also check that the fan is actually working when it should be.

We asked Hyundai for an answer to your question and we were told that it's ok to tow in top gear in your car, but I would advise you use the best gear for the situation you find yourself in. Use top gear on the flat, but instead of waiting for the transmission to change down when you hit a hilly section, anticipate it and pull it back manually to negotiate the inclines. That way the engine won't be labouring and the transmission will be under lower load. Hyundai also told us that they recommend a different service schedule for cars being used for towing, and that you can find out all about it in your service book.
