Possibly the best-made TH-cam video I've ever seen. So many content producers yammer about nada at the speed of grandma. You got down to business immediately and wasted no time while being perfectly clear. Awesome! Thanks!
So glad to hear it helped you out and thanks very much for the feedback! Means a lot! I know most of my videos are pretty fast-paced. But I try to cover the topic as thorough and quickly as possible. ( mainly because I don't want to piss off my boss haha)
My Optima 2.4L lost the balance shaft belt , which took out the crank sensor and the engine stopped. Lucky for me, it did not disturb the timing belt. I was going downhill and also lost power steering. Since this is an interference engine I did not incur the usual destruction of the head and valves. I was able to repair successfully with the help of your video.
Exactly! Thanks for your comment. I started making content because I got sick of sifting through people's long drawn-out videos. I do get a lot of comments about the fact that I have to slow things down though. lol
I just ordered a GMB kit with Mitsuboshi belts. Not looking forward to it, but your video looks to be of great help. After watching it three times I'm confident I can move forward. I replaced a belt on a 2.3 Ford many years ago and it wasn't near as involved as this. I'm off all week from work so I am going to take my time. I'll update you when I finish. Merry Christmas!
Those are good little engines..my 04 santa fe has 300.000 miles on it still runs fine and no oil burning..I bought it new and changed the oil every 3000 miles.ive changed out timeing belts bearings and water pump several times lol.its amazing how fast you can do it after you've done it a time or 2..they are reliable the only things that have left me stranded a time or 2 is the crank angle sensor or a coil pack. Very good engines I wish my 2020 santa fe had this type engine 8nstead of the new gdi engine..
Like others already, dude. This video was great. I have watched this atleast 7 times and paused it along the way multiple times. I'm pretty mechanically inclined already, but this video really helped give me the confidence to rock this job out effortlessly on the timing aspect. The paper towel trick worked like a charm as my Honda cam lock tool was a little to wide. Thanks again bud. I genuinely appreciate you taking the time to make this.
Awesome video. I like this style!!! Almost like a 'talking repair manual' !!! Would be a perfect video if there were some comments on how to do this when belt breaks... especially the 'gravity' method of getting the oil pulley lined up correctly.
The instructions to take everything apart were great. I struggled getting the timing belt back on. There is a video on a Mitsubishi engine that is very similar to this one that was helpful. Key tips for me were: 1. I used 2 wrenches on the dual cam bolts with bungee cords to hold them at the right spot. 2. When you wrap the new timing belt around, you need to end up at the tensioner by the water pump last. You will have to tightly wrap the belt between the two lower sprockets to have a chance. 3. Use spring clamps to hold the belts on at the top sprocket and bottom one 4. When you put the lower cover back on, use some gasket shellac to keep the thing from coming out as you slide it into place.
Excellent video. The speed sensor wire was cut by the timing belt because of wrong reinstallation, on my wife's sonata. Your video was very concise and helpful - thanks!
Wow Ive been watching your videos, and had no idea that this was you doing a tutorial. I thew a balancing belt witch caused the timing belt to slip. 05 Kia Optima so needed help with power steering pump removal. Then there you were here to help. Interference motor bent valves, dinged pistons. I bought a new head from Allied motor parts. On my way back together, and I got stuck. So impresive, thanks man!
It's the only video and I can find that matched my job and I know that I washed it several times and saved it to my playlist cuz it's the only one that could help me
This was nice to look at. I just put a radiator, thermostat and housing. Then I replace both timing belts and water pump with this 2005 Hyundai sonata 2.4. Thanks for the tips.
Easy enough...not. The video is very good. Thank you. I once did a 2.4 liter Ford on the side of the road without even pulling the crank pulley (didn't have that particular wrench on hand). You showed enough detail that I don't think I want to tackle this in even my driveway. That leaves 'borrowing' a garage somewhere or having it done. Not my usual style, but I guess I'm getting old.
Excellent! I didn't have to skip thru a ton of nonsense! I run an independent shop and if I haven't done the job in a while, I'll see if someone has thought of s shortcut that works too save time, make sure I've got the specialty tools on hand bla bla blah. I like the clear cut video touching on the operations without showing every single minute of it
Thank you so much for this video bro my hyundai sonata this car starting problem day time morning time good start but in day time not start very long self after then start
Awesome video....got straight to the point!!! Need more videos like this for people looking for help, not learning the basics of lifting a vehicle. Hahaha
Thanks for your comment. Yeah my videos are mainly geared toward people with prior experience. Occasionally I get hater comments saying I wasn't thorough enough though. LOL.
Hey Chris. Soon as I let of tension from the belt..it made a little clank..not sure if it went out of time...hope you see this man. I'd hate to start it and hear the piston slap the valve..
In the video you said there was an hour version. Could you put a link on that. Trying to replace the other belt Camshaft balancer belt. I think that’s the one I have to replace the timing belt stay together but that boat is all torn up in pieces thanks in advance
When I was originally making this video I did a quick search and saw a few other videos that were a lot longer. That's all I was referring to. If you didn't find it in your search it may not exist anymore. If it is on there it should pop up when you search Kia 2.4 liter timing belt replacement
I recently had this work done on a Kia Optima 04 2.4L @ a Kia dealership. Believe or not, the tech forgot a component or something, cranked the engine and destroyed the valves. So they end up replacing the head with a reman head, redo the job with the timing kit and I just recently picked up. No issues now except for a weird idling when at a red light or stop. Like if it’s going to eventually stall, but doesn’t. On the highway and roads, it handles great and makes power. What would cause this?
Damn, sorry to hear that. It's possible the timing could be off one tooth. But I would think they would have made sure everything is proper and right The second time around. Could be lots of other things too though.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow Yeah I know. It’s been a headache. I’ll keep monitoring it and seeing if any changes happen. Driven 100 miles so far 😅 Anyway, great video btw. Clear and concise explanations.
I have a question about this. A “mechanic” changed out on one of my customer’s vehicle. Well he got everything back together and the engine won’t even turn over like it’s locked up I’ve looked at everything timing and etc intake cam was way off of timjng so I fixed that and it still won’t even budge ran perfectly fine before. Did notice a small bend in the oil pan where he just used a jack and no wood
Hi great video,,,can I ask I'm going to tackle mine myself,,are the two tensioners on the timing belt just bolted back on or do I have to tesion them first or do they just bolt back on and as soon as I remove the pin then everything is tight,,,thanks
Having an issue with getting our timing marks to line up on cam gears, oil pump sprocket, and crankshaft. Any tips? We got it line up before with the new belt. Turned the crank 8 full rotations and can’t get the marks to come back around
Yep, anytime the timing belt is changes on these, the position sensor should be as well. I'm not sure if it's the cleaning that makes them go bad but seems like a few months after belts are changed, the sensor goes out and you have to do it all over again.
When taking crank pull off first take 4 bolts out then outer piece of crank comes off without pulling timing gear off then remove the 22 mm crank bolt that's how it's supposed to be done it's the only part of your video I would change.
If it ran fine before, then the belt is either not time properly or you may have forgot to plug something in like a sensor or the ignition coils Etc. Need to go back and Trace all steps. Check for spark, and check your cam timing
@@JoseGonzalez-dv6yi that doesn't sound good. Sounds like maybe it was improperly timed and the valves could have contacted the Pistons. Honestly it's hard to give you any advice without seeing the vehicle
I have a 2005 sonata 2.4. Yesterday my car lost power it sounds like it doesn't have compression. Today i took off the timing cover and the timing belt is really loose almost off. Is the engine still good?
good night sir congrat how yu explain timing marks but ich have one more question about hyundai Sonata dumping alot of Gas Not starting what is the causes
Thank you for your comment, to be honest with you that's something that I would have to take a look at it in person. I work on all makes and models and they all have their quirks. Have you tried doing a Google search on your issue?
It's a simple thing but i cant seem to fit the timing belt cover back on and it's 100% in tact. The bottom right of it i could push some plastic and that side fits but the bottom left side isn't fitting back into place. Took some force to remove, might take a bit to get back in.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow just got er back on, had to maneuver it with a bit of rotation rather than force. Thanks for the fast response and the video. Good stuff
Have you replaced the seals behind the timing cover. It looks like I need to pull the oil pan to get the other cover off. I’m assuming I need to put the motor mount back on to pull everything off
i got a problem . I turned the crankshaft clockwise accidentally while having the camshafts locked in the guided positions is there a way i can turn it back counter clockwise without unlocking or do i have to do a whole turn all over again please advise me
Sorry Keith it was a while since I've done this video. If you find the specs, and comment them back I will plug them into the description of this video for future viewers. Thank you! And sorry I wasn't up more help
Thanks for the video. But piece of advice to everyone else...this job is well work paying someone 400$ to do. Or you need to invest in some really long ratchet wrenches
Honestly I'm not a huge fan of these. I mean I've seen plenty of them with 150k miles and more. But they're usually pretty run down and whooped by then. Much better off sticking to a Honda or Toyota if your budget will allow . worth the extra couple dollars
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow At least my 06 Kia Sorento which has this same 2.4L engine, runs like new and it has 155 000 miles on clock. In Finland where I live, many of these Sorento's have over 300 000 miles on them so they should be quite reliable.
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow 2004 Hyundai Sonata 2.4L 225k miles, other than routine maintenance, I only had to change the alternator, some sensors and the timing belt awhile back (which I had professionally done) and now have to change the water pump (myself) because the fan sensor went out and caused the pump to overheat and pop, still runs though, just overheats... obviously.
I was running about 55mph when mine slipped belt is missing teeth. Car just shut off and would not start. 2004 hyundai sonata 2.4l You think engine is shot?
Do not try and start it up immediately. Make sure your valves aren't bent, or take it to a machine shop to examine your head if you can't. Then throw it together and make sure it has oil in it :P
I'm not sure, is it different? If you find it's not, let me know and I will update the title. When I posted the video, that's probably just what I came up with based on my short research
Why do you rotate the engine manually two times at the end. Is this to make sure everything turns easily and that the pistons don't hit the timing valves?
Correct. And then also to re-check your timing marks. But don't worry about the marks on the Belt. Just check that the crank and cans are lined up properly after 2 rotations of the crankshaft
Thank you for your reply. I have a new timing belt, water pump, cylinder head, intake valves. Would i still need to replace everything despite new parts ?
Hello I have a question I recently changed my timing belt on my 04 kia optima 2.4l and I was confused about how the crankshaft is timed I believe I didn't line up the dust shield to the timing mark but also if the two front sprockets at line up will the crankshaft be lined up to the lower timing cover as well ? Sry ik this is an old video I just need advice bc I did this and my car isn't starting I'm sure I didn't break any valves the engine just cranks and dosent start any feed back would be very much appreciated thanks
I'm having trouble picturing exactly what you're saying and it's been a while since I did one of these however as long as you line them up as seen in the video and also as seen in the instructions that should have came with the timing kit then you should be good. It sounds like you might be off a couple teeth. If it's not starting and you've checked all your other connections, then the timing must be off. Hopefully no damage occurred
Hmm I see bc I lined up the cams with the old belt since it was still intact I just turn the ignition little by little till it lined up top dead center with the marks however one can was lined up and one was slightly off like maybe 2-3mm and what I'm trying to say is basically if u line up the top cams while the belt is on would the crankshaft pulley dampner line up with the lower timing cover mark or do u have to rotate the engine manually
@@josephpezza3062 yes always rotate it manually. Never ever crank the engine especially with the belt off. You should take the upper timing cover off and then get the number 1 piston to top dead center on compression stroke and verify that your cams are properly times. It sounds like the timing must be off
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow thank you sir I appreciate it very much sorry to disturb just this is my first time I want to attempt to learn how to do it on my own but I think I'll have to just hire a mechanic who knows what there doing and learn some other time don't want to mess it up even more
I did it myself first time ever I did how ever mess up on not marking crankshaft unfortunately the importance of it wasn't to emphasized I would have been more apt to if it was it was none of my knowledge how how important with but other than that I didn't complete the job things to this video
My timing belt just broke yesterday.. 2003 sonta 180k miles.. mechanic says the broken belt probably "ruined" the engine wouldn't even bother with an estimate another wanted a grand. I've DIY previous projects on my car before like head gasket, plugs, brakes etc.. but based off the complexity of this project I think its probably time to let my sonata go :(
I would give it a go. Get yourself just a timing belt, put it on there, and put just enough back together where you can start it. if it starts up and runs, then put a new pump in there along with the other components. What you got to lose? It's not that complex once you get in there, especially arms with this video. Good luck, and let me know how you make out if you take it on! You got this
Also just FYI, I rarely see engines get destroyed from a broken timing belt. Even on a interference engine, it's usually only about a 30% chance of bending a valve when the belt breaks
@@jayg4408 oh I see. Yeah unfortunately I don't have access to one of these so I wouldn't be able to help you with that. You may be able to find a wiring diagram that shows the terminal pinout online somewhere though
God damn good video. But worst time belt change ever for me. If you did it including water pump (5 bolts, 4 different lengths and the f"Ing alternator attached to it.) you know what F"ing hell means. 7 hours Hyundai what the f! Is wrong with you

I was running about 55mph when mine slipped belt is missing teeth. Car just shut off and would not start. 2004 hyundai sonata 2.4l You think engine is shot?
Only one way to find out. Pull it apart and throw belt on. Halfway put it together and fire it up
Do not try and start it up immediately. Make sure your valves aren't bent, or take it to a machine shop to examine your head if you can't. Then throw it together and make sure it has oil in it :P
Well done
How is this different from the 07 motor?
I'm not sure, is it different? If you find it's not, let me know and I will update the title. When I posted the video, that's probably just what I came up with based on my short research
Why do you rotate the engine manually two times at the end. Is this to make sure everything turns easily and that the pistons don't hit the timing valves?
Correct. And then also to re-check your timing marks. But don't worry about the marks on the Belt. Just check that the crank and cans are lined up properly after 2 rotations of the crankshaft
Shops say i need to redo my whole timing belt, if i just need to put tension on it, is that true ?
Generally yes. If you're going to put a new tensioner on you might as well replace all the other components while you're in there
Thank you for your reply. I have a new timing belt, water pump, cylinder head, intake valves. Would i still need to replace everything despite new parts ?
@@mecellassmith9106 no you can just do the tensioner
Ok,thank you
If I need to replace just the water pump, can I get to it with out touching any of the timing belts?
comment puis-je mettre une voiture hyundai sonata au point nn machine peut démarrer.stp donnez-moi une réponse je suis coincé
Does it matter if my timing marks line up but the oil pump gear is 180 out when u spin the motor over by hand
Honestly I would have to look back at the video. I haven't done one of these in a little bit. But no that sounds normal off hand
Hello I have a question I recently changed my timing belt on my 04 kia optima 2.4l and I was confused about how the crankshaft is timed I believe I didn't line up the dust shield to the timing mark but also if the two front sprockets at line up will the crankshaft be lined up to the lower timing cover as well ? Sry ik this is an old video I just need advice bc I did this and my car isn't starting I'm sure I didn't break any valves the engine just cranks and dosent start any feed back would be very much appreciated thanks
I'm having trouble picturing exactly what you're saying and it's been a while since I did one of these however as long as you line them up as seen in the video and also as seen in the instructions that should have came with the timing kit then you should be good. It sounds like you might be off a couple teeth. If it's not starting and you've checked all your other connections, then the timing must be off. Hopefully no damage occurred
Hmm I see bc I lined up the cams with the old belt since it was still intact I just turn the ignition little by little till it lined up top dead center with the marks however one can was lined up and one was slightly off like maybe 2-3mm and what I'm trying to say is basically if u line up the top cams while the belt is on would the crankshaft pulley dampner line up with the lower timing cover mark or do u have to rotate the engine manually
@@josephpezza3062 yes always rotate it manually. Never ever crank the engine especially with the belt off. You should take the upper timing cover off and then get the number 1 piston to top dead center on compression stroke and verify that your cams are properly times. It sounds like the timing must be off
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow thank you sir I appreciate it very much sorry to disturb just this is my first time I want to attempt to learn how to do it on my own but I think I'll have to just hire a mechanic who knows what there doing and learn some other time don't want to mess it up even more
Hi I'm having sonata gold 2004 actually my car key is broken but it's transponder is fine can I start my car with another key..... please tell me sir
I'm not sure off hand. Sounds like you would need a new key with the proper transponder
@@NoNonsenseKnowHow sir transponder chip code is get to change right
Sir one of my friend told me start the car with sample key and put the transponder near to the lock then your car will start. Is he saying correct
Good god that belt is f Ing hard to put back on solo lol
I did it myself first time ever I did how ever mess up on not marking crankshaft unfortunately the importance of it wasn't to emphasized I would have been more apt to if it was it was none of my knowledge how how important with but other than that I didn't complete the job things to this video
My timing belt just broke yesterday.. 2003 sonta 180k miles.. mechanic says the broken belt probably "ruined" the engine wouldn't even bother with an estimate another wanted a grand. I've DIY previous projects on my car before like head gasket, plugs, brakes etc.. but based off the complexity of this project I think its probably time to let my sonata go :(
I would give it a go. Get yourself just a timing belt, put it on there, and put just enough back together where you can start it. if it starts up and runs, then put a new pump in there along with the other components. What you got to lose? It's not that complex once you get in there, especially arms with this video. Good luck, and let me know how you make out if you take it on! You got this
Also just FYI, I rarely see engines get destroyed from a broken timing belt. Even on a interference engine, it's usually only about a 30% chance of bending a valve when the belt breaks
Do you still have this car? I need help
Sorry no. This was just a job I was doing
Maybe you can still help? Do you have an email?
Sorry I try to keep things to the comment section. What seems to be your issue?
The clip broke for the camshaft senor and I dont know the order the wires go into. From too to bottom I have a brown cable and 2 black
@@jayg4408 oh I see. Yeah unfortunately I don't have access to one of these so I wouldn't be able to help you with that. You may be able to find a wiring diagram that shows the terminal pinout online somewhere though
same as a mitsubishi 2.4
REPLACE THE CRANK SENSOR WHILE YOUR IN THERE...
If i could spam the thumbs up i would. Couldnt figure out why it was shaking so bad. I Had the timing off by two teeth
Happy to hear you got it corrected
God damn good video. But worst time belt change ever for me. If you did it including water pump (5 bolts, 4 different lengths and the f"Ing alternator attached to it.) you know what F"ing hell means. 7 hours
Hyundai what the f! Is wrong with you
Thanks for the feedback. And yeah definitely not the easiest of belts. Glad to hear you got it knocked out though
