    After doing allllllll this crap-cleaning the throttle body, replacing spark plugs, replacing camshaft sensor, checking tps sensor, checking for vacuum leaks, and dealing with my car stalling for over a month every day (i drive over 100 miles 5 days a week!), after reading through tons of video comments & googling crap & having the dealership tell me they could do nothing for me bc my check engine light wasn’t on, “but I could bring it into them for $135.00 an hour & they could possibly diagnose the problem” HA!, the thing that finally freakin’ worked was me changing my oil & adding a little transmission fluid. Idk if the tranny fluid had anything to do with it or not, but thought I’d mention it. After all the research, I read where all of these ppl with various years of elantras, at varying mileage-under 25k all the way up over 150k (mine has 135k), were having stalling problems with no CEL…car seemed to stall at low speeds or when idling or while taking a turn or while parking…mine got to the point where it stalled while driving behind someone at 45-50mph where I periodically would have to slightly brake bc they would drop speed…but normally, not always, but normally, the car will start back up with no problem-mine got to the point where it would just try to start when I’d push the button the 1st time after it stalled-id have to push it again to stop it. Wait a couple secs and I’d try again & itd start up. I was a decent ways past time for an oil change & before I drove the d&mn thing off a cliff, i thought let’s try changing the oil. This seemed like a dumb thing to do & i honestly didn’t think it was gonna work tbh. I’m a chick--my dads a mechanic & I’ve never heard of a car stalling from not having your oil changed, so I was incredibly skeptical. I also read that low transmission fluid could make it stall. I’ve always had mechanics check my fluids when I have my oil changed but let’s be honest…do they really check it?! So I thought screw it…the way to check the elantras tranny fluid is ridiculous-so i decided it couldn’t hurt to add 1/4 of a quart, which isn’t a whole lot, to it & see if it made any difference. I would also like to take the time to complain about the genius who designed this d@mn thing…easy to do, but a pain in the a$$ to access!!! Anyway being as times are tough, me & my partner who have never touched an engine in our lives, proceeded to change the oil and oil filter & added that little bit of transmission fluid and it’s ran like a dream ever since. It’s been about 3 weeks and hasn’t stalled one time from that point. I’ve gathered from reading that if your vehicle is doing this & you change the oil & it stops, that it’s recommended that the oil be changed somewhere between 3,000-5,000 miles but the sooner the better. There’s 90 different opinions on why this happens…i honestly don’t think Hyundai knows why it happens!! So my suggestion is before you go spending 100’s of dollars on what you’re “certain” it is, especially if there’s no code, id stick with the inexpensive oil change, maybe adding some trans fluid & see if that changes anything. Also, i want to add that if you’re not a mechanic, whether female or male, if you’ve never listened to anything a stranger tells you, listen to me when I tell you to stop taking your car into mechanics who’re INSANELY overcharging you to do things that literally take 1 simple inexpensive tool & only takes 5 mins to do. Again, I’m 43, female & don’t know squat about cars…the spark plugs & wires on an Elantra (a 2017 anyway & most are very similar) take one socket & roughly 5-10 mins to replace & are on the top of your engine. The camshaft sensor I bought took me less than 4 mins to replace-it’s 2 bolts & unclipping a wire & then clipping it right back in--also located on the top of your engine. The tps sensor and O2 sensors both are easy to replace…just watch a YT vid. It sounds scary & ppl are always worried they’re going to screw something up, but trust me when I tell you that when you see how easy it is to replace this sh!t, you’re going to feel dumb having handed someone hundreds of dollars for something you could’ve done yourself in less than 5 mins. If you can plunge a toilet, you can replace this stuff!!! You just have to trust yourself bc you are smart enough to do that stuff. Hope this helps someone bc i was ready to drive my car into the lake trying
    To figure out what was wrong with it…good luck and if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask!

      YES! Car maintenance is super easy!!! I had front brake issues on my elantra after taking it to pepboys. Long story short, after 2 weeks of a nightmare with them telling me its this an that, they finally written off the brakes and rotors and gave me a better quality (uber discount). That day forward, i bought all the tools i needed and now i change basically anything that needs replacement. If it aint the engine or trans neededing to be taken apart, then i can do it myself. Anyways, today my car has been stalling like crazy. Thought it was a coil since it had carbon all over it, bought 1 for $100 at autozone and issues persisted. Now im assuming its the spark plugs because the 3 coils are in perfect condition. If spark plug dont work, then its either my idle control vavlve or cam sensor. Im certain its the spark plugs because i hear this rapid ticking while slowly accelerating then boom, the car stalls on me. Car has new oil as of last week

    This would be a list of things you can do with just a ratchet and few sockets for all of your vehicles, I do this on my 2018/2017 Corolla and 2014 Hyundai Elantra and I don't have any sort of problem with RPMs or acceleration:
    1) Clean the throttle body by spraying carbon cleaner to a microfiber cloth and then clean the carbon around the butterfly and replacing your engine air filter (Engine must be cold like early in the morning for to avoid burned hands when cleaning throttle body). The throttle body will build up carbon deposits faster if the engine air filter is getting clogged (dirty), excesive idling and using gas 85 (this is the worse gas in USA).
    2) Throttle Body, IAC (Idle Air Control) and MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor are the responsables of crazy RPMs fluctuations including PCV Valve which push up the rpms and make the engine oil leaks.
    3) Spark Plugs replacement.
    4) Oil change every 5.000 miles max every 8.000 miles if you are using synthetic oil.
    5) Get some fuel additive and add it when you are filling up your gas tank, this may help to reduce carbon in the combustion components.
    2017 Corolla LE: 212.000 Miles
    2018 Corolla LE: 76.000 Miles
    2014 Hyundai Elantra: 143.000 Miles (I do deliveries and Uber driver A LOOOOOOT).

    Some simple maintenance will most likely solve the problem take the air intake duct work off and clean the throttle plate with throttle body cleaner soak it and then wipe it out with a rag then take off the idle air control motor and clean the carbon off I have a 2012 Hyundai Elantra I do it all the time. This is a common problem in most vehicles makes and models just a little simple maintenance.

  • @bobbyvalentino4488
    @bobbyvalentino4488 5 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    did you work on the intake manifold or did you clean the throttle body? the electronic throttle body has an adaptive mode and can send false datas to the ECM. Took it to the dealer, it takes 5 mins to reset it and i'm sure the car will run fine after. In others ways, sometime a bad VVT solenoid...

    • @hunterplaysguitar2301
      @hunterplaysguitar2301 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree, but if the vvt solenoid is the problem or dirty, the vvt can create a ticking sound because the oil is not supplying them well. This can also be a valve problem

    Scan for (Inactive) codes with OBD2 scanner, if no codes are present then disconnect the battery terminals for 1 hour, reattach and see how the car runs?? Disconnect the battery, The 1st part I would replace is the most common defective part called the Crankshaft Position Sensor, If that doesn't fix the problem then remove and clean the camshaft position sensors and the VVT solenoids with a can of carburetor cleaner, they are located on top of the engine. Reinsert those parts, reconnect your battery and go for test drive around the block a couple times. Hopefully these simple maintenance tips will help you out. Don't go to the dealership...DIY!!

      Finally figured it out! Reset your ECU and everything will be normal again. There's a fuse box next to your ECU by the air filter box. Open the cover in the back of the cover you'll see what fuses are responsible for your ECU. In my case 3. Pull them out and leave them out for 20 min. Then put them back in. Let me know.

    Having just hit 185,000 miles on my 2013 with the same motor and everything and runs great except on occasional ticking on extremely cold starts which isn’t much of an issue now that I moved in the south. The general rule is to never exceed 2,000 RPMs until fully warm and tbh that sounds like a sensor of some sort. If it ain’t knocking or making noise their ain’t shit wrong with your motor and you need to find a local mechanic who can diagnose that properly. And also not sure if you are the first or second owner but if you’re the first it’s under warranty. All in all it sounds that the dealer is getting shitty high school mechanics to work on your car and you need another mechanic
