April Dooley says:

mine done this last night with 68,000 miles…..i havent called the dealer yet but i hope its something this simple to fix and they dont blame me for something 🙁 it done it all of a sudden while driving home from work.

D Nixon says:

I have a 2014 Optima and developed this issue. What is an estimate to repair?

Jonny Schuring says:

Hey i have the 2017 sonata limited. can i reset those values myself with a regular diagnostic tool? Or do i have to have a mechanic fix it?

Jonny Schuring says:

i sure hope to hell i dont have to replace my engine. Not under warranty!!!!

TommyG1814 says:

Thankfully we have a 2020 Tucson with the 2.0 I hope this is a good one. It gets the oil and filter changed by me every 3K.

Mr. Fix-It Mobile says:

Hey I was going to try this can I reset the Adaptive values with the mx808 scanner

Jay Benz says:

I have a 2014 sonata with 84k , last night I went through a car wash and then got the blinking check engine light.

Ordered the sensor and working on my car tomorrow, hopefully it lasts till 150k

Bandaid on a bad engine – 2.4L Theta II is a garbage engine. My Sonata is at the dealer getting replaced right now. I have a Chev pick-up with 320,000 miles on it I drive every day that has no major issues and never has…

William Prieto says:

I need a video for placing a knock Sensor for a 2014 Kia Rio LX 1.6ltr engine.

M Sands77 says:

Hey there. Great video and great info! My mother in law just had this issue on her 13 sorento. Also, at 2500 miles into the oil change, it was very low! Consuming oil is my guess. Kia did all tests and check bearing clearance and said all was good. My huge favor question to you is: What tolerances are considered acceptable and what's bad?? 0.003 good, and 0.005 bad? I am not sure. I dont know their tolerances and I'd like to know if she is on the cusp of bad things happening or not? Thanks a ton in advance!

I bought a sonata 2.4l 2018 in April this year I didn't know a about the recall, or the claim settlement against hyundai American motors it closed in July this year but my vin is included in the settlement pretty sure dealer who sold it to me knew about it should I complain to consumer protection or am I wasting my time should sell the car ? I own it already its at the dealer getting diagnosed for knock sensor

philtgroin 1 says:

You don't have to pull the intake manifold to replace the knock sensor. Take down the under carriage splash sheilds. Remove the oil filter housing/cooler. Remove intake manifold support bracket. Clear shot at the knock sensor. Taking of the intake manifold is a waste of time.

Maketta Badarou says:

Just got the p1326 code!!! Wish I could bring my car to you!! You know you stuff!!

charles stewart says:

I have seen other videos where the code on the vehicle was P1326 but their repair was to replace the intake runner motor which should have been code P200A for the runner. Do Kia and Hyundai have a problem with their computer system???

John Harmonsen says:

Its nice to watch this man . he knows what the hell he;'s doing
As a matter of fact its TIME FOR A RAISE

Mirabel L. says:

I only get this problem when it snows, rains or if I drive through a car wash. Have you heard anything like this before?

I went to the dealership and. I’m told I already have the software update.

Please advice

Ernest Damo says:

Please the name of the spanner you use to turn the engine

MrINFAMOUSKING says:

What’s the app you used to read codes?

Ryan Hammerfist says:

Wish I had you near my dealership for the 5th or 6th time for same 1326 code. 2nd engine blah blah blah fuck kia and their class action shit car coverage.

Denis Lara says:

I had the same code. Because it was under 100,000 miles KIA replaced the sensor, it did not fix the issue.
After deleting the code and changing the sensor KIA replaced the entire engine.

100% Facts says:

How much do this job cost my check engine light just came on the code that came back was P1326 Glow Relay Short Circuit

Martin Warne says:

Great stuff.

David Sunday says:

Question… I had the bearing clearance test done and they said they needed to add oil to do the test as the air was going around the cylinder due to a bad ring. Would this be considered a failed bearing test? Thanks
