HYUNDAI ELANTRA ENGINE KNOCK TICKING NOISE

HYUNDAI ELANTRA ENGINE KNOCK TICKING NOISE
► Our Website: mechaniclifestyle.com
In this video, we will demonstrate a common problem with Hyundai Elantra. Our 2013 Hyundai Elantra developed an engine ticking noise just before it turned 70,000 miles. I did some online research and this seems to be a common engine ticking noise with hyundai elantras 2011-2016. Most likely it is a piston slap. We will be taking the engine apart soon. Check out if the noise was better after oil change. More Hyundai Elantra Repair Videos: goo.gl/6HZZwS

A tick and a knock are VERY different things, if you dont describe the problem correctly it's really hard to tell what's going on. A little ticking is normal for this engine, ANY knocking is not ok at all.

[@2much4you31]

I know someone who started using Mobile1 Full Synthetic 5W-20 oil mixed with a little Lucas Synthetic Oil Stabilizer and a Dealer Oil Filter. After a couple of months of driving the ticking/knocking noise dramatically reduced. He also used Lucas Upper Cylinder Fuel Lubricant.

[@anhiirr]

which is common place with engine function/care with all cars....................o wait bc at the end of the day the point is to promote engine life and mpg through duration of use/ownership. Hyndai cant even make good on that

[@charleshines2142]

Maybe even a gentle engine flush. Something that is OK to leave in. Something slow acting like Hotshots Secret Stiction Eliminator maybe. It can be used in gasoline or Diesel engines. It is somewhat expensive at around $25 for a quart. It also has their friction reducer in it. They guarantee it in that they will refund you if you are not happy with it for some reason. Just make sure to still have a receipt for it and maybe even be ready to send the remaining product back. In my opinion you might not find yourself sending it back. It works really and there are many people who would say similar things. I do not sell their products or have any connection with them. I just tried their stuff and it worked for me. My vehicle is a Nissan and does not have any ticking problems and I should point out your luck may vary. You don't need to have a high mileage engine to use anything like this BTW. In fact on a high mileage engine you may see leaks. That is because the stuff it cleans out may have been the only thing plugging leaks in the gaskets. It is the reason why some people might tell you not to use a synthetic oil. There was also a time when synthetic oils were thought to cause leaks. The products I mentioned not only contain a friction reducer made by that company but they use synthetic base stocks and additives in their oils and other products. I would love to have a vehicle that never had anything like that in it and let a friend take it for a ride and then quietly put that in it without telling him. This is a good way to test whether it seems to do anything and without him having any knowledge that you used something in it that would eliminate the placebo effect. The idea is that if they know there is something there they will have an expectation of improvement or maybe even think that there was one. The idea is they don't know anything except what they may notice when they operate the vehicle. When you see him next ask if he noticed any difference between that trip and the ones before it, then you reveal what you did to your vehicle. This is a good way to prove that not all additives are snake oil to the cynics and skeptics. They may be cynical from all the money they wasted trying other products that did not perform as well as they would expect.

My 2016-2017 accent both do this cold as soon as they motors get to just over 1000 rpm it goes away ! Bought both on the same day both new in February 2017 ! As the closer you get to your 5000km oil change it gets louder ! My next oil change I will be switching to 5w30 I have been thinking 5w20 is to light! Only reason I haven’t switched yet is because I got 2 years of free oil changes ! Also both cars have 150000 km 8 year power train warranty! Always keep oil clean it’s the best thing you can do ! My father bought a 1992 ford ranger with 250000 Kms for 1500 bucks my father changed the oil every 4000kms and in the summer he ran diesel oil in it and the winter he would switch back to 10w30 and that truck ran with no problems for over the 15 years for him only thing he did was a few water pumps exhaust and brake pads ! The frame and body rusted out and the motor was still running at 890000 kms when we took it to the scrap yard ! Best 1500 bucks he ever spent lol !

[@teannetownsend289]

had the same issue with my 14 elantra at about 80k miles. Took it to numerous shops and they told me it was fine. Finally to it to the dealership and they replaced the lower engine block under 100k mile warranty. It took about 2.5 months to get fixed. The knocking is gone but now there's a noise on exceleration every once in a while. Fortunately my car is damn near paid off. Ill be getting rid of it soon

[@Eddythe_Eagle]

My 2010 elantra does the same .I tried castro 5w30. It still is noisy on a cold start up,. But i think the noise is coming from the bottom end. I only have 82,000 kms.. I might triy some Lucas top end lube, or a thicker oil 10w30 for the summer. Most engines should not tick that much . They have hydraulic lifters, that self adjust, not like the old days when they had solid lifters. Try some upper valve lube , that might help.

[@csb772]

I have seen engines tick for thousands and thousands of miles and never have a issue. I have also seen people try to fix the issue only to make things worse. If its not affecting you in any way but a lil noise best leave alone. Its like the customer who complains about squeaky brakes. Brakes have to stop a giant hunk of metal they will make noise sometimes. I bought a motorcycle once that was actually knocking. Not ticking but knocking for $400. Very nice super bike. Honda CBR 1000cc. The guy said he gave it a tune up and drove it home. Then the engine started knocking. He stated he was driving fast so assumed he blew it up. 99% of people would think the same. Not me I bought the bike got it home and started my diagnosis. The issue was two of his spark plugs had came loose and the engine was missing so bad it was knocking. Unburnt gas was hitting the exhaust making it worse. I tightened the plugs and had a $5000 bike. I drove it for 6 months and went ahead and make $4600 off of it. I have 3 ATVs right now worth $3000 or $4000 together. I bought them for less than $500. The issues were all electrical that someone else couldn't fix or didn't want to spend the money to fix. Electrical issues are tricky and it took me about 3 hours on each to rewire things and track down issues but it can be done. Dont be scared to buy that nice broke down ride. Sometimes its a simple repair.

I've had engines near 400.000 miles. No problems or issues, they were still running great. And sounding perfectly fine. I have 337.000 miles now on my 94 trans am, lt1 engine. Bought it new.

I change the oil every 5,000 miles with Mobil 1 full synthetic 5W 20/high mileage, and use the more expensive K&N oil filter. Only replaced the battery and plugs. Same brake pads and everything else! Maybe I should run 5W 30. I like the car and gonna try and get at least 300-500K on it.

[@MrTZone8891]

[@rccarsandmusic2641]

I had the knock on my 2013 Veloster 1.6. I switched to 5w-30 and it also helped. I also used an STP extended life oil filter and installed a catch can. After 1000 miles mile oil is not black. Hyundai uses 5w-20 for mileage but it is bad for the engines. 5w-30 in winter and use 10w-30 in the summer. good video!

[@stevefranklin8052]

I totally agree with you, same weighs I use. Hyundai isn't the only manufacturer doing the 5 at 20 thing. They are ALL doing it. Also. My 17 Elantra owner's manual says 5 wt 30 MAY ALSO be used. So there is no issue with that .

I live up in Minnesota and it's cold I've had what sounds like that noise in first morning for about a month now sound goes away under 20-30 secs. I have been keeping an eye out on it for about a week now. I found out going from 10w-30 to a lower oil to 5-30 solved the problem for me. Reason I say is yesterday the weather was 15 and before the 15 degrees it was 40 degrees and no sounds when it was warmer... The oil weight for sure has to do with certain climates. Nice Video:)

Sailesingh Ramdhony no recall buddy

[@charleshines2142]

If you had one of those funnels with the mesh in the end of it that would catch anything you may want to see. Also if the oil is really bad it may clog that mesh some so make sure to have a place where you can leave it drain into the bottle. That would be a place out of the way where you won't forget and accidentally knock it over. It may pass through the funnel quick enough that it would not be that problem. The funnel I am thinking of is probably something that would be sold for filling hydraulic fluid. Someone with expensive equipment who doesn't want dirt getting into his machines would be likely to use a funnel like this. You could also use a funnel like that to put oil in your car or truck engine if it fits in the fill hole. These are a big funnel too and look like they could hold nearly a quart of oil but that oil won't be in there long enough for it to fill unless you like pouring it fast. I would recommend some sort of slow acting gentle engine flush you can leave in until the next change and maybe change the filter part way through. There is a comment by me in here somewhere about a product I like. I have no idea if you will like it or not. Why is that you may wonder? It is simply that everyone is different. Also there is a chance that it might not help this ticking sound. I doubt that it would make it worse but you never know. I would never guarantee it not to cause a new problem. It is something that you would use more for preventative maintenance. I also can't guarantee it because if it is a worn out or broken part causing it that will not magically repair it.

[@kens97sto171]

Wanted to add that piston slap at least where I live describes when the pistons rock back and forth in the bore when the engine is cold. Not when you have a piston pin worn and it's making a noise. A lot of inline 6-cylinder 4-L Jeep engines suffer from piston slap when they're cold. other people have mentioned this but there may be a warranty claim available through Hyundai on this problem. Other people have mentioned they are replacing engines regardless of the year or mileage or whether you're the first owner or not.

Hey. I need to know what could be the problem when the engine check light doesn't turn when my Hyundai elantra 2012 mode has engine issues?

Thanks for the info. I have a 2014 Elantra. I had the same problem with knocking/ ticking. The car has 112,000 miles on it. I changed the oil and the problem went away. I had almost 4,000 miles between oil changes. Could it be the oil needs to be changed more frequently? You also said the ticking was coming from the top of the engine. Could it be the valves needing adjustment? Are the valves adjustable on this engine? This problem came about because the car wouldn't start. I got 112,000 trouble free miles from the engine. I changed the plugs and the filters and still the same problem. At first I thought it was a gas pump and filter. I watched your video how to change it. ( Good video)I figured out the engine wasn't getting gas. But the pump wasn't the problem. So I took it to the dealer and they flushed the fuel injectors, and no more hard starting. That's when the dealer mentioned the ticking noise. Changing oil solved the problem. Thanks for all the info, you're a very intelligent mechanic. Hats off to you, and much success.

Except me. I'm over the lawsuit allotted mileage. By 26,000 miles. It sucks too. The engine oil is still clear when you check it.

[@ismaelramirez6689]

Use of an aftermarket filter can cause engine noise. There is a tsb on it. Good luck.

[@michaelwood875]

usually, only after initial start up, then it goes away...

[@CJ-fh5xq]

I use LiquidMoli with my oil changes and quiets the slap dramatically.

[@Halljand]

The ticking you hear when they change the oil is the high pressure fuel pump and the direct injection head design.

[@nicholaswalsh3016]

Justin Hall this particular engine is not gdi. This is the multiport injection one. Notice the engine cover just says DOHC (dual overhead cam)

[@dominickcamero8434]

I have that exact problem and going to change the oil and get the factory oil filter with the check valve to see if it makes any difference

[@terminators1v1ert21]

I have the same problem, just add a can of oil additives (STP high milage oil treatment) for 5 dollars. You won't hear a tick after that. Being doing this forever now.

I have a 2010 Hyundai Elantra I live in Canada when it's cold and I started it revs high after about five minutes it goes down what is the problem can someone tell me thanks

[@JerZeyFiveOh]

My wife’s 2010 Hyundai Elantra GLS has a faint ticking noise, it comes and goes. I’ve changed the oil with synthetic when we bought it used at 65k+ miles, now it has 193k on it. My best educated guess is that the hydraulic lifters that pressurized are worn out. I would get a second opinion to determine if it’s it.

[@dtnetlurker]

A slight tick is completely normal for this engine. As is gets broke in it will have a slight tick especially when the engine is really cold like in the winter. It is the lifters on this car, not piston slap. They are louder than on some cars. If you develop a real knocking like from a bad piston you will hear it cause it will be loud as hell. You won't be able to hear yourself think. Take it to any authorised dealer that knows all about the particular engine. They will tell you the same thing. Even some seasoned mechanics have to ask for help from time to time. Also use only Hyundai OEM oil filters. Other ones make the ticking louder.

[@richardgordon3397]

somebody correct me if i am wrong but that car does not have lifters its a overhead cam so when the camshaft turns the lobes on the cam push directly onto rockers that push the valves open and on the down side of the lobe it closes the valves.i have seen many used cars with a engine knock and some people trying to get rid of it run a really heavy oil to try and mute the noise..also a different oil filter will have nothing to do with engine noise unless you forgot to put a new one on and ran out of oil in 30 seconds...it sounds like it has a bent valves or worse

[@williamstroker8892]

These cars as most overhead cam engines have hydraulic lifters. Very few overhead cam engines have solid lifters most notably older Hondas thus they require periodic valve adjustments. And this noise is lifter tick sludge builds up in the lifters. Piston slap is caused by the piston skirts and the piston caviating ie shrinking in diameter, this was an issue with gm 3100 engines in the 90's

[@ivan23caravantes44]

Such a liar bro. Did you see the other video's he posted after this one? This engine design is crap.

[@siskens470]

I believe there is a manufacturing defect. Something with the coating in the cylinder or a cast on the connecting rod. They have a campaign to replace the entire short block based on customer complaints.

Oh boy, that's giving me some "PTSD". I bought a 2012 Elantra back in November with 79k on it, I didn't even put 600 miles in 2 months on it and it started doing this. I ended up having to get an entire new engine because it go so bad.

[@michaellovell2518]

It's not an issue with the car itself. People drive them hard and maintain them poorly, and that's when there are problems. I like to buy new for this reason. I bought a 2012 Kia Forte, which has the same 2.0 liter L4 engine, and did all the maintenance myself, full synthetic oil every 5k miles. It has over 100k miles on it now, has never needed any repairs, and runs like brand new. I bought a 2018 Elantra this week, and there is no difference in the sound of the engines. I expect both to last 300k miles or more. If you drive them gently, they will last for a long time if maintained properly. Even if driven hard, they can last many miles, but once more, proper maintenance is absolutely essential, and this is never guaranteed when buying used. Even dealer service does not guarantee that a car is maintained properly... The only way to truly ensure longevity is to buy new and service the vehicle yourself, using quality oil and filters at regular intervals.

[@michaellovell2518]

Ever notice how your car seems to run better after a thorough detailing? We all know the detail did nothing to the car mechanically, but it still feels that way, right? People read about problems with a certain car, then they start hearing mysterious "clicking" and shit... They get nervous and paranoid, and start stressing about whether there's a problem with their car, and often imagine there is even if there isn't... My daughter had me look at her car because she thought she heard an unusual noise. I checked it out, and couldn't find anything wrong. She kept coming back complaining that she still heard the noise. I didn't hear anything that concerned me. Finally, I told her I found the problem and fixed it, even though I actually did nothing. She was quite pleased to report that the repair was successful, and she didn't hear the noise any more. I'm not saying every bad report is bullshit, I just take them with a grain of salt. I'm old enough to remember how long it took for Toyota to overcome the widespread (and largely undeserved) poor public perception of Japanese imports. Every little issue was blown way out of proportion by the "I told you so" crowd, to the obvious glee of domestic manufacturers. All I know is that Korean manufacturing appears to offer good value, and their cars have excellent warranties. I gave them a shot, and so far, I'm satisfied enough that I purchased a second Korean made auto...

That is why don't drive it hard when cold. It is impossible to have a mechanical design that works identical in hard and cold environment. Just take it easy for the first 5 minutes of cold engine driving will go a long way to engine longevity.
