Thank you for the video. Manifold gasket part numbers oval at bottom: Mahle MS19703. Square at the bottom: Mahle MS19704. My 3.3 Sonata is a 2006 and had the oval shape.
AWESOME VIDEO!!!! Need too replace rear head gasket due to oil leak but was afraid to tackle it.. i did the front 2 years ago and did well. Took alot of pictures with my celll phone so to remember how to put stuff back. Had no extra bolts laying around! Your video gave me the confidence to do the rear head gasket
How did you guys take out the bottom three bolts at the bottom of the plenum with that bar in the way? I can get the one, but that round bar is blocking the other two. EDIT 7/19: I figured it out, and I saw you showed it at 6:40. Now I'm trying to figure out how to get more slack to move that bracket out of the way.
In trying to remove the throttle body. The two 10mm bolts @ the 4 o clock and 8 o clock position rotated freely and didn’t unscrew. It was done manually with a ratchet wrench keeping in mind that there could be corrosion in the threads. This is on a 2009 Sonata 3.3 with 282,000 km and has the plastic plenum with brass inserts. I will drill out the bolt heads to release the TB but unsure how to lock in the brass inserts. I suspect that the red loctite from the factory install added to the problem.
Thanks for the video about fixing the oil leaking on the alternator - l have the same problem and was wondering if now two years after you replaced that gasket if it solved the problem. Seems like a very common issue.
I just removed the plenum with the throttle attached to it. Those lower coolant hoses are a pain in the ass to take off with the throttle in the way. I was just figuring out a misfire. Replaced the intake plenum gasket but I don’t think I got the right one or something because now it has a slight hiss
Thanks for this video, needed to get to my spark plugs in the rear, but when I’m trying to get those three 10m bolts off of the throttle body they won’t come out, just keep turning and turning but not loosening or coming out. How should I get these out?
Thanks for the video - very helpful. FYI - the round intake gaskets are the correct ones. You stretch them to fit the odd shape of the original ones. There is a locating tab that matches the original - start there and slowly stretch them to fit. Took me about 5 minutes to do all three pairs.
Hello ...great vid, my first time doing this. love your detail and clarity . need help with : a: at 2.38 to 2.47 of vid , how do you get that electrical connection off ...it's a difficult one ????... b: at 13.35 of vid you said "oil is going thru " ..., it's an air intake plenum ,,,,there is not supposed to be air there ......oil in plenum likely means the PCV valve is malfunctioning and needs replacement c: I have already ordered and received my plenum gaskets however unlike yours it does not come in 'see through ' packaging ...and a warning that if package is opened it is non returnable ....so it's like opening a Christmas gift ; don't know what I will get inside
Thanks! Yeah the connection plug is quite difficult to unplug. I used a flat head and took my sweet time because I didn’t want to snap or break the tab. The gaskets are like a Xmas gift (you know what version you’ll get) because a friend of mine said the same thing, his came differently.
@@NuMBERNYC thanks for your personal reply .. I have a personal question for you ...in one of your Sonata vids you had a structural cross bar across the two front struts ...what is it really ..??.. what does it do ??... and can I get one ??... whats the link to the site to purchase ?..I know it is an aftermarket thing ...thanks ...ps i enjoyed and watched many times your parts 1 , 2 and 3,, for will be doing the same to my Sonata 2006 ...thanks again
I've done many intake manifold gaskets and a lot of timer the gasket aren't the same shape you just have to stretch them into place they're like rubber bands and after they get burned they keep that other shape
Used this as a guide to replace my sparkplugs and when re assembling everything, I now have an intake manifold leak from where it mounts to the lower intake manifold, would you know why?
@@NuMBERNYC Replaced the intake manifold gasket rings with new ones, car has 177k miles on it. I might try to re-install the old gaskets but the new ones were the exact same.
@@NuMBERNYC found out that it wasn’t an take manifold! It was one of the o rings on the fuel injectors! Replaced it and no more hissing. Now I’ve got a problem where it will suddenly stall, I think it’s the vacuum actuator on the intake manifold.
yes, it does ...I used medical latex gloves to protect my hands and it eats a hole thru the gloves...nasty stuff , be careful... However " find a different cleaner " , what do you suggest ..? product name , manufacturer ??,, thanks
Ummm....this vehicle doesn't have a plastic manifold. So I'm not using the rubber ones, just the metal one. I hope I'm right, lol. There definitely wasn't any rubber gasket upon removal, just the metal one.

The two downvotes are from people without kids, lol. Great video, sir. This will save me a few hours.
Thank you!!!
Great Video.. clear.. sharp, and informative.. THANK YOU!!
@@majhoolmaroof2065 thank you
Thank you for the video especially how detailed you were in explaining everything.
Thank you for your kind words, Arman. 👍
I used OEM plenum gasket : 29215 3C200 on my 2009 Sonata 3.3 after Rockauto sent me the incorrect -oval - gasket.

Haven’t had any issues, just regular oil changes and maintenance
@@NuMBERNYC Ok great - thank you for responding.

Would you know if its the same to do it in a 2014 jetta se supercharge

What is the torque specs on and tighten sequence on valve cover . And torque specs on intake?
Hello great videos I have a big ? I can’t find my knock sensors have you replaced yours?
Thanks! No, I haven’t checked or changed my knock sensors. What model is your sonata? Also which knock sensor are you looking for?
I missed where you removed the PCV valve. Is it in a different video?
Hello ...great vid, my first time doing this. love your detail and clarity . need help with :
a: at 2.38 to 2.47 of vid , how do you get that electrical connection off ...it's a difficult one ????...
b: at 13.35 of vid you said "oil is going thru " ..., it's an air intake plenum ,,,,there is not supposed to be air there ......oil in plenum likely means the PCV valve is malfunctioning and needs replacement

Will the tension on the gasket not cause it to deteriorate faster and eventually fail?

You may need to replace the manifold gasket ring. Has it ever been replaced? How many miles does the car have?
@@NuMBERNYC Replaced the intake manifold gasket rings with new ones, car has 177k miles on it. I might try to re-install the old gaskets but the new ones were the exact same.

double thanks
Legit the hardest bit about this is knowing how to disconnect those damn wires.
Lmao. Yes! One wire took me about 40 mins to disconnect. I kept praying I wasn’t breaking it
Also try to find a different cleaner for plastic parts brake cleen eats at plastic and rubber parts.
Thanks for the inside tip. Cheers!
yes, it does ...I used medical latex gloves to protect my hands and it eats a hole thru the gloves...nasty stuff , be careful... However " find a different cleaner " , what do you suggest ..? product name , manufacturer ??,, thanks
The gaskets you're looking for come off a 3.5 engine .
Ummm....this vehicle doesn't have a plastic manifold. So I'm not using the rubber ones, just the metal one. I hope I'm right, lol. There definitely wasn't any rubber gasket upon removal, just the metal one.
All the Intake gasket kits are round until you put them in they form to the shape of the intake holes.
No RTV on rubber gaskets. Let the gasket do it’s job.
In the small area that he put the RTV, yes, that's not uncommon to put a dab of it in those areas.
