KIA SPORTAGE GDI FUEL RAIL PRESSURE TOO LOW P0087 DIAGNOSIS & FIX

In today's video we take a look at a 2016 Kia Sportage w/ a 2.4l 4 cylinder engine. The customer complaint is that the engine has an extended long crank time during start up, the engine runs poorly, it misfires and there is a check engine light on in the instrument cluster. Using a scan tool we find trouble code P0087 stored, which tells us that the pressure in the fuel rail is too low. The customer has already replaced the in tank fuel pump, the GDI high pressure fuel pump and the fuel rail pressure sensor. However, the problem still persist and the check engine light comes back almost immediately. Let's see if we can solve this mystery together, fix this vehicle and get the customer back on the road!

You never know what you'll find when you're looking into other people's problems. Hell of a good job. Been working on vehicles since 1972.

Cleaning up after someone else is tricky sometimes. Excellent diag!

[@exxxplict_kidd]

I got a car. Went to change plugs all the nuts that hold the plugs in were missing 😂

[@loveofchrist5808]

Hello young man I live here in Dallas Texas I always find your videos so fascinating because I’ll be honest with you I don’t think I could figure that one out. Well also I’m 60 years old when I was trained many many many years ago things were a lot simpler now engines and everything else that goes underneath the car has gotten to be so complicated you need computers and stuff like that but once again thank you for your video God bless you and your family and all your viewers thank you once again for a fabulous video. ✝️✝️✝️🇺🇸

[@ricardorodriguez-se7tp]

Hi im from Dallas aswell im a mechanic and like watching his videos.

[@loveofchrist5808]

@@ricardorodriguez-se7tp mr. Rodriguez do you work in the shop or do you do your own repairs at your place residency, I’m asking because I have a van it’s giving me all sorts of trouble so I was hoping to see and talk to you through email? God bless you sir please let me know if you were interested and doing some work for me thank you and God bless you and your family and friends.✝️✝️✝️🇺🇸

[@Farseer1995]

Congratz, fantastic process of doing a proper diagnosis. Thats exactly what separates a mechanic from someone who just throws parts at a repair hoping to fix something along the way. Sure, you could do that, but that'll cost a lot of money. Aint gonna lie, as a mechanic, sometimes I also have to take an educated guess, there are just too many variables involved and way to many deviances between car makes and models but thats NEVER an excuse for not doing a proper diagnosis. Eg for example, practically all petrol engines prumye the fuel pump at the key on. EXCEPT for my 1.8T A6 which fuel relay sends a signal to primes only once it recieves a signal from the crankshaft sensor... I spent 4 days trying to figure thay out... At least it was my own car. Also, just for the record, I never trust anyone who said that they have already replaced parts thenselves. You never know what was the quality of the said parts. I remember fitting a customers camshaft sensor having given in to their reasoning that what they bought was "good enough"... Only afterwards I double checked the product company (as the customer never gave me the original parts box) and it was one of the worst aftermarket makes anyone could buy. Swapped it out for an expensive part and suddenly the ECU could register camshaft rotations properly.

[@404notfound.....]

Excellent diagnostic work!! you never cease to amaze me!!! 👍

[@GeorgeMalonedj]

Glad you are back, we need professional diagnosis you always provide. Also nice new branding!

[@eddiego8044]

That's awesome how you diagnosed the whole issue ! Well done man

[@HLChow]

I learn so much from you! You're a technical genius!

[@deepthiwijekoon7283]

If a less knowledgeble investigated he would have diagnosed a faulty new high pressure fuel pump the replacement which would not have solved the problem. Top marks to you diagnosing the real cause!

[@jasonmurdoch9936]

Damn I thought you died I hadn't seen a video on at least two months from you glad to see you're alive and still doing well thanks for the video

[@dtandfam8100]

Welcome back! Thankfully the cam was not destroyed. Thanks for sharing 👍

The average mech wld have never observed such essential piece was missing. WOW!👍🏾

Good job man! I'm impressed, and I'm a mechanic with over forty years experience.

Feels good to have you back on the field mate...

Tremendous teaching techniques ! Great video shots to coincide with your coaching ! Thanks !!!

Excellent diagnosis!

[@jluna1279]

Welcome back bro I was on round 3 of rewatching your other videos.

[@chrisguillen1495]

Hell of a diagnosis and fix brother. Great video

[@billyyoder8171]

XTool lost many cool points. That was hilarious how you were giving multiple props about the tool. The top secret function they wouldn't let you talk about. Then the units of measure fiasco. Epic.

[@boatsail1]

Great detective and mechanic work.

[@carloscollazo6106]

Hi Eric the video was awesome keep up the good work😊

[@kevinpalmer7452]

First class diagnosis 👍👍

[@arthuraucar3696]

Good job!! At the beginning of the video I guessed a flat cam, but that was just a guess!!! Thanks for the video! Very informative..!

[@84DavidM777]

I replaced the cam follower in my sonata and was advised not to since those Fuel lines carry a whole lot of pressure. Great video! You sure don't make it easy to decide weather XTool or Launch...

[@Doug....]

Excellent diag Tony 👍👏👏👏

[@westfield90]

Excellent work as always

[@itsjustchris3306]

Great diag. The steps were easy to understand and great explanation

[@pbr549]

I enjoyed the part of the video when Eric said they have blown engines in the back. I guess I am happy with my rescue Honda Civic with 224k miles on it. She ain’t pretty but gets 31.5 mpg. Great video.

[@abbasmuhsen2715]

Glad to see your informative videos Thanks bro

[@Speedraider366]

Being missing the new vids, great diag!!

[@regkarn1]

I probably never would have figured that out. Well done.

[@Ken-1]

Honestly. Goes to show that assumptions are a tech's biggest enemy. I would have assumed the job was done right for time's sake, but that would have cost me the job. Nice reminder to just take the extra time to be sure (where reasonable)!

[@odishoodisho4904]

Great job thanks for sharing your experience

i have lost count the amount of times people have done this on the 2.4 theta gdi hyundai / kia engine , yet when i have had to replace rocker cover gaskets i have never had that come out , but such a common issue if you are unaware

HE'S BACK!

[@LuisGonzalez-jh3um]

I have xtools D8 and regret it, not reliable or consistent. Should’ve gotten a launch like Eric! Now I’m selling my xtools, doesn’t do a lot of things it should and like Eric said I can’t wait days for an update.

[@MartinM04]

Bad ass video. Good hustle God bless

[@CarlosPerez-zo2ik]

Hi, love your videos and the way you diagnose electrical components. I have a convertible F type that the convertible top is not working. Have even changed the module and no luck. Have done a lot of work on it, I feel like I don't trust anyone with my car but I'll definitely would like if you can work on it.

[@SEXYTECH1000]

AWESOME VIDEO ,

[@DJ-tn7vj]

Logo looking solid E

[@Just4me78]

Good and clear

X tool not so great 😂 good old launch👍. great diagnosis

[@prospermuzhingi5412]

Great video Eric ,which type of camera 📸 you are using?

[@sohailrabani]

Diy is always dangerous 😳 ☠️ 😑 especially when motive is just save some buks on mechenic..at the end diy guy learned a lesson 😀..great diag.cheers

[@massinissaautoscan]

The best of all time

[@AnthonyLovato]

Launch for the win. I know you are trying to highlight other scanners, however, I'm biased to the Launch. I enjoy all of your content, but the content with the Launch are the ones I save. Keep up the great work.🤙

[@mikechiodetti4482]

You gotta know the system in order to diagnose it. Early on in the video I was thinking a slightly worn camshaft, but you have to do the tests like Eric did here. Learned something new about the roller. Do all GDI pumps have the roller like this Kia? I have a 2020 Toyota RAV4 with the A25A FKS engine that has GDI. Does this engine have that roller? Good diagnosis Eric! Thanks for this video.

[@mftahcamour2583]

شكرا لك💯

[@moayado436]

Missed you bro

[@martyg3757]

Even though you are not familiar with Hpa vs Psi, you could have continued with the original scanner. The important facts are the relative numbers When there is a difference between actual vs requested of 3X, you know what you need to know.

[@jamesbruno5896]

Nice diag!

[@3000gtgomez7]

Welcome back Great video, I’ve tried the xtool but it wasn’t for me. I’m in Houston, how can I take my car to you?

[@mthedude4395]

Eric, have you ever used any of the Top Don diag tools? If you have, do you recommend any of them?

[@johnchambers12]

That would be the reason for a sign that reads, if i fix your car i charge $40 and if you try to fix it first $200, and thanks for sharing the 431 update

You the man!

[@TheSamjusto12]

I have a quick question . I was watching a video from awhile back . The one with your brother chevy cruze . Did you ever get that fixed? I saw that he needed a catalytic converter. I'm have the same issue with my cruze . Getting a po420 code also .

[@ryankeller8542]

Please share or add the fuel pressure kit you use to test the low fuel pressure.

[@shaffere33]

xtool needs to add a recent vehicle tab or vehicle history. It's so annoying when I go back into the same vehicle I'm working on and I have to re-autoscan it

[@leoncabral2699]

Chingones tus videos me gustaria que isieras videos en espanol tambien pero tal ves no lo able porque tienes un color European muy bien asentado

[@trublue2319]

Gracias ese

[@johnnyvillarreal4677]

Hey I'm from Houston and have issues with my AC I seen a older vid where you fixed one. Do you have your shop on the area?

[@myboy051]

I still use my snap on vantage pro. It’s compact and and takes care or most of the jobs I need the scope for. I have a 4ch also but the vantage pro is great for jobs like this. I wish snapon would still have updates for it. Sometimes it’s easier to just get the connector view from the scope itself.

[@billsmith4877]

You are a savant. Thanks

[@ManhPham-mz8fv]

Good

[@kyletuttle9064]
