they have a recall now. on 2011 and 2014 optimas now. premature bearing going out. Motors start knocking.
Mike, my wife's kia has an oil pan leak, its a 14 sorento 2.4L, just wondering if I have to remove anything to take off the pan
Hello again Mike, I was wondering what gaskets you had to replace with the install of the new bearings. I know that I will have to replace the oil pan gasket but am not sure of the name or part number for the gasket between the lower and upper crankcase. And did you also have to replace the oil pump gasket? One last questions, what color bearing did you purchase if you can remember? Thanks in advance for your help.
Hey Mike, how did you put everything back together correctly? I have the same vehicle that you worked on. Thanks in advance!
How much are bearing cost for a Kia Optima 2015 this happen to mines ? ): she sitting their
how did you split the upper oil pan from the block. I have all of the bolts and motor mount off and I can't get it to budge.
How to set the timing on oil pump, and where to look for the marks?
dont you have a parts washer , shouldnt you check crank surfaces before you put new bearings in it.
I hear a valve noise. I think something wrong with the valves. How can I adjust the hydrolic valves. I cant find anything on youtube about adjusting kia optima 2008 valves. Do I need to get the cam shaft out to reach the hydrolics ?
The oil pump is integrated into the balance shaft assembly cassette it has to remain in time with the engine, if the chain and pump are not in alignment the engine will shake and vibrate like crazy.
please help me out I'm not sure if it's possible it could be removed
I'm trying to change the rod bearings in my 2014 Hyundai Sonata but I'm having trouble taking out that part that holds the oil filter
how did you take off the part that holds the oil filter
It's better to get a new one your Hankin could be crack you was driving it and then it stop that and Guinness done you can get it 2008 Kia Optima for around $3000
I had engine knock and kept driving until my car shit the bed, because I figured the engine was ultimately done anyway. Could I have this repair done relatively cheap and it would even be worth it, or would I just be better off buying a new car?
