Hyundaitech,
On my 02 Sonata, I've always noticed that when I am traveling at a fairly regular velocity >30MPH and let my foot off the gas it seems to begin decelerating instead of just cruising forward slowly. This action, if I can attempt to describe it, feels somewhere in between lightly depressing the brake to being in a lower or wrong gear; almost like engine braking. My tires are Yokohama Avid H4s and have no more than 20k on them. They've recently been rotated and it doesn't drive any different than before after rotation. As I never suspected the tires in the first place, and it's not the parking brake being engaged, is there something I should have checked out? Whatever this is, it seems to be affecting my gas mileage lately. Driving with the feeling that my breaks are slightly in use kinda sucks so I hope you have some suggestions. Many thanks in advance.
