A used window winder motor that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
The Santa Fe has run across four generations: the first-generation (SM) ran from 2001 to 2006, the second-generation (CM) from 2006 to 2012, the third-generation (DM) from 2012 to 2018 with a facelift in 2015, and the fourth-generation (TM) from 2018 onwards. Window winder motors are generation-specific, so always identify your generation before sourcing a part. Quote your registration to the breaker so they can confirm the exact match.
Both 2014 and 2016 fall within the third-generation DM Santa Fe, but 2014 is pre-facelift and 2016 is post-facelift (the facelift arrived in 2015), and door furniture can change across a facelift year. Name that boundary to your breaker and ask them to confirm the motor from the donor vehicle against your exact registration before buying.
Yes, it matters — NS (nearside, passenger side, left) and OS (offside, driver side, right) motors are not interchangeable, as they are handed to suit the specific door aperture and regulator direction. Always specify which side you need when getting a quote from a breaker. UK convention is NS for the passenger side and OS for the driver side.
Trim level does not affect window winder motor fitment on the Santa Fe — the motor is determined by generation and door position, not by whether the car is a base, Premium, or Premium SE spec. You may find minor cosmetic differences around the door card or switch panel between trims, but the motor and regulator assembly itself is the same. Confirm the generation and side with your breaker and trim level need not be a concern.
Both 2008 and 2010 sit within the CM second-generation range, so fitment is broadly likely to align, but the CM generation did run for a number of years and specification changes can occur mid-cycle. Give both donor and recipient registrations to the breaker so they can cross-reference and confirm the motors are a direct match before you commit to buying.
No — engine and fuel type have no bearing on window winder motor fitment whatsoever. What matters is the generation, the door position, and the side (NS or OS). Focus on those details when describing your vehicle to the breaker.
