Hyundai and Kia Steering Wheel Clunk Fix
In this video I'm going to show you how to fix clucking or clicking noise that may be coming from your steering wheel. On a lot of Hyundai and Kia made vehicles that coupler that's part of your steering assist motor wears out and goes bad which in turn allows for slack and therefore clunking or noise when you turn your steering wheel. In this video I'll show you how to remove and replace it easily.

Love your tutorials. Very thorough. I used one of your old video's to do the timing belt on a 2.4ltr Mitsubishi. I had no surprises. you left nothing out. Thankyou!
You're a instructional video master.
Great video resolution and audio !
I had this part replaced in my 2013 sonata around 101,000 miles. Part is cheap labor is not. After watching I would pay a pro a second time.

You are a lifesaver sir!
Awesome information & tutorial
Great stuff!
I had to do that on a Right hand drive Santa Fe, exactly the same but that Pivot Bolt wasn't so easy to get out, had to remove the brake and accelerator pedals. There was also some module in the way which could not be removed but I had to pivot it out of the way. Three tries and many cut knuckles later but I got it right.
Nice work
Good video ! Thank you !
I have a '95 Hyundai, paid $250, less then $1500 delivered from Phoenix to New York 15 years ago, great simple economical reliable car. The new ones have engine probs... mine has 165k
I bought a 2010 accent for a grand in the summer of 2021. Cleaned it up, changed the timing belt and sold it in may 2022 for $2200 plus a 2003 Buick Century with 80,000 miles. I was gonna flip the buick but it's so nice after fixing the a/c it's now my daily driver. I loved the accent but I barely fit thru the door, otherwise I'd of kept it.
New ones have engine knocking.
I'm so glad that you didn't list the 2016 Kia Sorento. my EPS steering (when stationary) makes an abrupt noise with headlights flickering when trying to get out of parallel parking spot where I need to move the steering wheel all the way to the right.. Very odd behavior. It slips and doesn't let me turn it all the way to the right. Again, Im not even moving or slightly moving and I turn hard-right to give me the maximum turning radius and BAM, it skips and headlights go out then back on. Any ideas? thanks so much, you are awesome!
Great video thank you
💯 done a ton of these
good explanation thanks
Great info!...I have a 2013 Elantra and this clunking problem started at around 60k miles. I found out Hyundai issued an "unknown" TSB about the steering clunk and they extended the warranty for this particular problem for ten years. Took my Elantra to the dealership for the repair last year and they tried to charge me for the repair. I had to show them the TSB and they did the repair in-warranty. At this time, if you have a 2013-2016 Elantra with the steering clunk sound, you should still be able to get the repair done at the dealership in-warranty.
do you have any info on that? For ex the TSB # or NHTSA #? (if in the states)
@@guillermomonroy7319 : Extended Warranty TXX7: Motor Driven Power Steering (MDPS) Coupling (TSB #17-ST-002)
I would also like to know the TSB # and if it works for Kia Forte as well. (same car)
@@cali4niasurfer You can lookup all recalls on your car by entering the VIN # on the Kia Owners Portal or on NHTSA 😊😊
Did this the other day on a sonata. Pretty easy fix.
Great video! Can you provide us with a link to the part you used?
Calidad, jefe! I have a Forte 2010, but no clunking, for now 😌 and i checked other vids on how to fix problem, and most of the cars are 2013🤦
Do you know what the frh for this job is? I see these all the time and send to the dealer cause there’s nothing on Mitchell for it. Would love to attempt it. Thank you
I received a recall notice from Kia for the steering motor and related components. The warranty is extended out to 15 years and 150,000 miles for this. Is this the same issue?
Awesome info, thanks 🙏🏽
did you have any video when you drill the egnigne cylinder lock in cars?
Which vehicles does this happen to ? I did not see the vehicle's you said you would list in the video.
These newer Kia's and newer Hyundai's with GDI technology are not reliable, so always stick to the older models when possible.
My hyundai santa fe is pretty good. V6 has tons of power just mog isn't that good
@@1188clean I agree that it is not the one with GDI technology.
Hey can you do a video on the Honda Ridgeline?
Is the new coupler made of better material
You made it so easy. How much that cost to get. Fix
Thank u Bro
I have a Kia sorento 2015 doing the same noise. Does that repair applies.
I remember I had this issue on my 2008 Elantra. I did the same thing to fix.
What an awful job that was to do. Hate those kind jobs. I find it easiest to just remove the seat out of the car, only 4 bolts and a connector or two usually. Really helps to have enough room without boiling your blood 🤣 Glad you got it done though friend 💕👍
which models are affected again?
How's your back after all that?
Can you do a video on timing belt on Honda 3.5 v6 Honda Accord
Do you have any video for Hyundai Elantra 2008? automatic
Excellent tutorial, shows how it can cost 400$ to replace a 15 cent part🏄♂️🤙
🤣 I was thinking same thing. Imagining mechanic showing the customer the new part and saying the job will cost $3-400 😆
You pay for the labor and expertise. You either like it or you dont.
You have never talked about fishtailing in a fwd car . Plz do make a video on front suspension and why fishtailing happens in a fwd car. Thanx
I can’t find my input speed sensor for transmission on a 2013 nissan sentra 1.8 I can’t find the locator this I want to change mine out I have trans issues can you help please? Thanks
how long did that repair take? what's the typical cost in a non dealer shop?
Gotta be 2 hrs, plus part so $300-400
Jonny's on point. I had that done at a mechanic on my Sonata and it cost me $400 CAD. So about $300 US.
@@Kayodeez my mom got a 2008; sonata, might be doing that job at some point in my driveway, ugh
Hyundai dealership did this for my 2011 for free. Might be worth a call.
is it the same on rav4 2011?
I did this on a Kia cerato/Forte and made a video as well... I can tell you for sure it's not a fun job... Unfortunately it's unavoidable... You will eventually replace the coupler
👍
A Dorman part??? It is like asking for a repeat failure!
Clunkers and junkers... 1st view
hyundais are actually pretty reliable, plus they aint jap crap.
@@willallen7757 The only "jap crap" I can think of are Nissans with their CVT transmissions and Subarus with their head gasket problems (at least on the older models).
Thanks 😊😊😊😊
AUSTRALIA / AUSTRALIANS Honestly, unless you're very capable just get a mechanic to do this. With the RHS steering conversion they didn't swap the side the carriage bolt for the column pivot from right to left, so you can't access that bolt unless you move the fuse box out of the way, and even then a bracket for the brake pedal framework is completely in the way making it difficult to extract the bolt and next to impossible to get it back in. This is a two man job, you'll want someone manipulating the column whilst another person tries to get the bolt back in, there's absolutely no room to see let alone work. Ask me how I know.
I had 2012 hyundia genesis took it too pepboys for a timming job cuz everytime I started it I would here the chain rattle. 3000 dollors and 2 weeks later I got it back for 3 days then the engine caught fire. Moral of story stay away from pepboys on all engine work and make sure u have full coverage.....
Damn.
it didn't have a time chain, its a belt.
@will allen nope was the 4 door. Different engine then the coupe
@@adambennett2176 interesting, I've done a few timing belts on Hyundais now didn't know they used timing chains. I would definitely prefer to have a chain.
@@adambennett2176 the 4.6 or the 5.0?
❤❤
Is this repair NECESSARY?
How much you charge me to change one
Up next... resto-mod 1986 hyundai pony!
Why do they make it plastic or rubber they could just make it iron or copper 🤕
My mechanic says he doesn't like doing this job as its very delicate and scared of Airbag
Amazing the manufacturers don't make it out of a more resilient material considering what it takes to get to it. Good thing they saved those 4 cents and passed huge labour costs on to their customers.
The column is not produced by hyundai. Its an other company that sell this to hyundai
@@jozuba Doesn’t matter where it comes from someone is still cheaping out and there is someone approving it. I think most people would be happy paying a few more dollars up front than having to get their steering column ripped out.
Good tutorial video sir.i am watching your Video from Bangladesh.sir i am a automobile technician.I have completed Diploma in Engineering course of 4 years.i have Six years experience of automotive Engine,, A/C Electric side.i want to go to your country for automobile job.please Help me
Says he'll put a list, then does not put a list :( pretty sure I hear that clunk in my 2010 Kia Forte. It looks like a lot of tedious work. How bad is it, will it ruin the steering? Honestly Kias are worthless when they are over 10 yrs, is it even worth doing?
Jeez I’d live with the clunk before attempting to replace this tiny two bit part
If you don't grease it it'll happen again. And you didn't grease it. Lol
Just don't buy a newer Huyndai/Kai all junk ! Also, all GDI engines.
Had the same problem on 2012 and 2014 Camry
Check with the dealer, I think they’ll fix it for free.
My fix for anything that identifies as a Kia or hyundia: fix and sell immediately
oke, i'm 1st
Better yet…..don’t buy a Kia or a Hyundai.
Agreed
It's a starter car! Give newly fresh outta driving school a chance!
@@StickNclutch you’ll easily get a Honda/Toyota for similar money..
@@md2k8 I did there Junk
My 2017 camry has this exact problem. Bad steering damper
Because steering parts aren’t all that important. 😂thank you Hyundai!
it doesn't even ever need repaired, it's just aggravating to hear the clunk.
how much for you to do this?
