2015-2020 Hyundai Elantra starter replacement (NON TURBO)

[@dontgetmestarted7297]

my starter literally just went on my 2018, and you uploaded this excellent step by step 14 hours ago. You are quite literally my savior right now.

[@HelpingHandAutoRepair]

Glad to be able to help. Good luck.

[@StrykerGoesWest]

WHERE IS IT. I can’t find it

[@eswatkinsjr8022]

I have a 2015 elantra is the location the same

[@kirkkirk]

Finished swapping out my starter on my 2020 Hyundai Elantra. Had to spend about $130 extra on tools, jacks and jack stands but all in all your instructions saved me sooooo much money. Thank You!

[@officialp03]

Where did you get your starter? Also was your car light’s and radio turning on but your car wasn’t turning over right?

[@kirkkirk]

@ that’s correct my car wouldn’t start but it would turn the lights and radio on. I got my starter from Autozone. I got it for about $280.

[@officialp03]

@@kirkkirk so that was the issue than? And hasn’t done it since? Because my battery and fuse is good and the car does this but only in the Winter time/cold it doesn’t turn on or takes awhile.. I have 2020 as well

[@kirkkirk]

@@officialp03 once I changed my starter it fixed the issue I was having. My original issue was that whenever I would try to start my car it my lights and radio would turn on but my car wouldn’t turn over. Once I changed my starter it fixed the issue.

@ ok awesome thank you so much im going to have that checked out today!

[@mikegould7663]

Excellent video. I don't think I would have been able to tackle this project on my Elantra without your detailed, step by step examples. Great job!!!

[@Matt_bechillin]

This was a great video. Sat down and watched it twice while waiting for same day delivery starter lol. I feel like I can just walk out and do it after watching this video

[@Matt_bechillin]

I did infact, get the starter in the mail, walked outside, and performed the job like I knew what I was doing lol.

[@ls3_saif]

Thank you for taking the time to make this video it helped me out a lot 👍

[@kevinmulcahey7578]

This was essential for my first time repair. Thank you so much!

[@coriwillis8435]

Awesome video. You made it look easy. Thanks

[@dcdlo156]

Good video helped me right out

[@HensonFamilyChannel]

Very nicely done. Bookmarking for future reference with my Elantra.

[@papa45colt47]

Loved you video! Big help, was pulling out the box. The only thing I needed an extra pair of hands getting the top bolt in.

[@rogerclaxton8883]

Excellent video. Thank you

[@mounirhamoudi9409]

Good job.

[@lightningmtaylor]

I have a 2018 sonata se, 4 cylender 2.4 L, Can I use a starter from an older model like a 17 or a sport model or just a base sonata starter? Thank you!

[@HelpingHandAutoRepair]

Not sure. Why not just buy the right starter to begin with? Takes all the guesswork out of it.

[@elkarim9929]

Good video... I don't like removing the manifold

[@HelpingHandAutoRepair]

If I can avoid it, I don’t like to either. Sometimes it’s unavoidable though.

[@jackstichtenoth141]

Great video!

[@qvx817]

How do u know the starter is about to die? My car when I start it it feels like it’s about to die very hard and long start.

[@HelpingHandAutoRepair]

You could just have a bad battery

[@austinnaylor4007]

Bring it to an O Reilley or other auto part store. They can test battery, starter, and alternator for you for free.

[@SomeRandomname-m4m]

My question is, why would something that new have a failure! Was it the bendix or solenoid ?

[@HelpingHandAutoRepair]

The solenoid. New cars suck. That’s why.

[@domwithablixk683]

Where’d you get your starter from?

[@HelpingHandAutoRepair]

Just the local parts store

[@SlipperywhenRhett]

That engine looks nothing like a 2018 Hyundai Elantra turbo

[@poseidon8073]

Exactly, i have the 2019 turbo and cant find a video anywhere!!!

[@HelpingHandAutoRepair]

@poseidon8073 Likely you’ll have to remove the intake manifold to get to it. Unless you can gain access from underneath but there might be a vacuum pump in the way and overall limited space. Sorry I haven’t had to change one yet or else I’d definitely film it.

[@poseidon8073]

@@HelpingHandAutoRepair Thanks for the advice! i havent been able to find a single forum on it anywhere!!!

[@HelpingHandAutoRepair]

@poseidon8073 it’s a fairly new car is likely why and not sure why it would even be failing by now.

[@poseidon8073]

@@HelpingHandAutoRepair apparently theres a faulty seal on the solenoid that allows moisture in, and when it gets below freezing it locks up and wont engage the starter at all, even with a jump pack put on it
