- If your Hyundai or Kia vehicle is making a Clunk or other noise when you turn the wheel, this video will walk you through how to determine if this repair is appropriate for your vehicle and the steps to complete it.
What is the name of the star shaped part..? Atleast 6 people have asked n I see nothing on the replies
Sorry that I have not answered the question previously. It's called a Steering Coupler.

Sonatas have this part under warranty

I just installed the steering coupler in my 2013 Hyundai Veloster Turbo. I have watched 100's of FYI video's on Facebook and you could not have made this video easier, less intimidating and visually clear. I have watched many Chris Fix and Scotty Kilmer video's who have million's of followers and thought they were the best. You have set the bar extremely high...
Agree!
Agreed!
I like the fact that he took the time to make the video in detail better than other mechanics doing the same job ..But I can't agree on that comment 100% buddy
Exactly the best
ChrisFix and Scotty the best? Now that's funny! lolol
Thanks very much, you are an absolute legend!!!! Just did this on my father's 2009 i30 (right hand drive Australian 2.0l petrol).
His mechanic had previously done this repair and charged him $2000 aussie, said he had to change the whole unit out with second hand one, but explained to me that there is a rubber coupling that breaks!!!
It took me just over 3hrs to fix including getting the part which the Hyundai parts centre gave me for free!!
I couldn't have done it without your clear, concise instructions!
LEGEND !!!
THANKS, Matthew, Australia
This saved me $600 bones... the video was so easy to follow,step by step. My boyfriend had to help me with a bolt or two, but I'm a 4'11" 55 year old lady able to do it in 5 hours. I have very little mechanical skills and nailed it.. Thank you so much.....love the video,keep up the good work..@ 140k this happened
Finally someone making a great video where they actually SHOW how to do it step by step and don't babble! Absolutely stellar, great job!!!
Again THANK YOU for this video, it saved me $1271, since I thought the steering shaft and mechanism was bad. It took me 1hr 7 minutes to fix. My daughter s car is back on the road like new! You are a good man. GOD bless.
You are an excellent teacher and you explain everything in detail! I wish others could do the same. they either have no sound, the music plays in the background, and they don"t explain every procedure step by step. Thank You so much for being very thorough!
this is, by far, the best auto repair video i've ever seen. thorough, descriptive, easy to follow, and spoken in plain english.
This is what all DIY videos should be. Clear, concise and confidence inspiring. I just changed mine. Little over an hour and that includes the 30 min wait for electrical discharge.
Thx for being such a great teacher.
Sir, I have got to say this is the bet diy auto video I’ve ever seen! Not only are you extremely thorough but you are calm an encouraging as well. I watched several videos on this issue and none of them come close to what you’ve provided. I am a moderate experienced car guy and can get around all vehicle components but you made this job a breeze. Thank you so much for providing us with this content. If I could give 5000 thumbs up I would. Thx again!
I have never done any work on my own vehicle but I have watched a thousand tutorial videos on "diy" things and let me say... I was super impressed with this guy! He was very clear and precise with his instructions without giving a ton of useless information. I hate when someone keeps stopping to tell you little personal stories that they are reminded of and you have to wait through all of that nonsense to get back to why you are watching the video in the first place. He does none of that! He shows every step as he's explaining what he's doing and I had no trouble following his guide... I absolutely think this gentleman goes above and beyond! Even giving you helpful hints on how to remember radio station pre-sets for your customers. It's the little things that really show you pay attention to detail and care about doing your job correctly. The best by far though... The encouragement he gives at the beginning of the video, so you're not intimidated by the task at hand. It was top notch advice on how to fix this issue on your own and I will recommend his videos to everyone that may need this type of help! Great job and Thankyou for saving me a ton of money and time! 👍🙂 Very impressed!
My son doesn’t realize it, but thanks to your video, he has a memory that he’ll take with him; helping his father fix the car. Thank you for your very detailed and well filmed video. Keep up the great work!
I really appreciate mechanics who take the time to make quality videos like this for us mere mortals. I've done 4 or 5 different repairs on my wifes Tucson and this is the next on the list. Thank you.
Probably one of the best how-to videos I’ve watched. Your step by step attention to detail leaves no ambiguity. Well done.
Took me about 50 minutes to complete the job, I’ve no doubt it would have taken me twice as long without watching this video.
Totally agree!
I can't believe how well he did the filming with the repair and explaining!
It’s always refreshing to watch an automotive repair video that is made by a professional! Great video, thank you for taking the time to film this!!
This man saved my $600. It took me anywhere from 1-2 hours for complete process. The hardest part is to get that 14mm bolt out and then to put it in, else everything was easy. Thank you once again.
Only 600USD? Here, Hyundai Czech has asked me 40 00USD....
This is the best repair video I have watched, and I have watched hundreds. Thanks
This is one of the longest but most informative videos I ever watched. Thank you so much for all the effort on showing this.
One of the best auto repair videos I’ve seen, and I’ve watched a lot. Great commentary and camera work. Now I’m ready to fix my daughter’s 2014 Santa Fe steering clunk. Thank you!
I would like to thank you for the videos you do. You are such a good teacher. Your videos deliver very clear and concise instructions. My son fixed our Kia Soul by following your video. He has a learning disability and wants nothing more than to be a mechanic, you have no idea how much today meant to us when he was able to complete this task on his own. He was almost overwhelmed when we did our test drive. It was a huge confidence booster for him. Thank you for the time you put into these videos.
Videos like this may have just saved me quite a bit. My 2013 Elantra started going clunk when I turned. I took it in to my regular mechanic and they told me I needed to replace "the power steering system" and it would be $3200. I was surprised and told them I'd have to think about it. Did some thinking, did some online research, and discovered this is a common problem fixed by a $10 part. I don't have the time to do the fix myself but I have an appointment with the dealership to get it done in a few weeks. They seemed to know exactly what it was on the phone. Thanks for posting this video to help people like me.
Great Job! As a self-proclaimed shade tree mechanic myself, I really appreciate the detail you went through explaining how to make this repair. Also, want to compliment you on the encouragement you convey to your viewers. Most repairs can be made by even the most inexperienced person if they will take a moment or 49 in this case :) to follow good instructions. And this video IMO is an example of good instruction. Can't wait now for the part to arrive and fix my Hyundai. Well Done!
I looked at several videos for this repair and this one is hands down the very best. Not only does it have great video coverage, but the comments are spot on and point out gotcha's you wouldn't expect. It was a bonus as the model I have has the airbag download.
Thank you so much for a very informative video.
To note, I just did this on a 2012 Elantra GLS 6 Speed Manual and there were a few differences.
1. No knee airbag
2. There was a metal brace plate where that knee airbag would have been, a few 10mm bolts and one 10mm nut to remove it.
3. A few more connectors on the wheel that had to come off (pretty self explanatory once you get in there)
4. I took the bolts out of the seat to move it back, couldn't fully remove it as there were airbag connectors under there as well.
Couple of notes.
1. You will definitely need longer than a standard 3/8" ratchet driver to remove that back bolt for the steering column. The head likes to round if not perfectly straight and takes quite a bit of "ugga duggas" to remove.
2. You definitely need a second person to help line up the tab into the slot as well as attach the nuts to reattach the column. The piece that the bolts press into (to reattach the column) also can slide, so make sure you have it slid back far enough to match the bolts.
3. Some other videos show removing the brake switch, I did not need to do that for my application.
The hardest parts were
1. Removing the bolt from the back of the column
2. Lining the tab and bolts up to reattach the column
3. Finding the right angle to get the bolt back in the back of the column.
Take your time, relax, and you can do it. I wouldn't recommend if you're claustrophobic as it gets a little snug in there with the column and 3 pedals.
Your video is excellent!! You took your time explaining each step and the video was very stable and clear. I also appreciated the little tips and comments that you included about the air bags while walking the viewer through the repair process. Thank you so much.
What an excellent video! Very detailed, great camera work!! Going above and beyond to program back the radio stations just shows how much you care about your customers!
I thought that I had to replace this part on a 2008 Elantra but the problem ended up being the 2 bolts at the steering column U-joints - the one down on the floor and the one up just below the EPS assembly. Both bolts were loose (had to turn them more than a full turn to get to the specs of 25 lb/ft). Once I did that the small clunking sound and play in the wheel was gone and the car tracked much better in a straight line on the freeway. The bolts being lose even threw a C1259 code about the steering sensor. Anyone having a small clunking sound and wheel play - check those bolts first before you go any further.
Excellent work. I made this repair in a 2014 Kia Forte. While there were a couple differences, I was able to successfully get the job done thanks to your video! Thank you.
Could you describe the "differences" please. I am facing this job soon on the same year Kia Forte as yours…Thanks
This is the best video covering this issue and repair, thanks! Great detail, pace, and tips.
Just fixed my daughter's 2011 Elantra GLS today and wanted to add some notes that might help someone else:
1) No knee air bag - There is instead a bare metal frame piece that is held in place by five 10mm bolts that you just remove.
2) Different wiring harness clip - In the video at 20:46, there's a tab that the harness clips to, but in her car, the harness is attached to a white/beige plastic piece that's then held to the column by a single screw. To free the harness, you have to remove that white piece by unscrewing it from behind.
3) Steering wheel not centered after reassembly - Too much to spell it all out, but the upper section (steering wheel, controls, support bracket) can then be pulled off the lower section (lower shaft, steering-assist motor, control box). Same steps, but keep that (cursed) rear bolt in place, removing only the two side nuts holding the column up. Separate upper from lower, fix alignment, and slide back together.
Hey, I think you may be addressing here the thing I’m having trouble with. Could you please help clarify.
1) so I am trying to put the whole shaft back in but once I get the back bolt holder thing in , the 2 front bolt brackets are not aligned, in fact the are completed crooked off to the side. During the disassembly, the front half of the shaft came out from the second half so I think that may be what messed up the alignment.
Are you saying that I should take out the first half of the shaft again, adjust it alittle and see if it will line up?
This is the absolute best video of how to fix the issue with the steering wheel making noise,we have a 2014 Kia Forte and I'm pretty sure it's an almost identical fix.Your camera work without a doubt was first quality,thank you so much for saving us thousands of dollars over a silly little rubber washer.
Thank you. Your explanation and demonstration gave me the confidence to replace this part. I'm 74 years old, not a mechanic and shouldn't be working on my vehicles. The most difficult part was figuring out how to disconnect the electrical plug ins. Took me about 3 to 4 hours and saved me over $650.00. Wow your instruction made it easy! Thanks again you really helped. A-W-E-S-O-M-E, AWESOME, AWESOME TOTALLY!
After watched your video, I had enough confidence to take on this job. The step-by-step instructions were clearly and easy to follow and video was fantastic. Repair done on a Hyundai Elantra GT 2013 just completed. Thank you
Bloody legend! I greatly appreciate all the detail you put into explaining all the little details that make the process a whole lot smoother.
THANK YOU SO MUCH! You really saved me some money and it was such an easy fix with this tutorial. Tip to anyone that’s gonna do the same thing, when your putting the column back into place just barely put on the two washers holding it from the top. You really need the wiggle room from the front to be able to realign and put the longer bolt holding the back.
Thank you for giving me the confidence to take on this job. The step-by-step instructions were easy to follow and video production was fantastic. Repair done on a Hyundai Elantra 2013.
Thank you! I couldn't have done this job without your video and your patient and beginner-friendly commentary. Our Hyundai i30 had a few things slightly different, but nothing that derailed my repair. Thank you for taking the time and effort to go into all the details.
Just performed this on a 2013 Elantra GLS. The back pivot bolt is a monster. Had to muscle it loose at the risk of bashing my knuckles against the column. Putting it back in is equally challenging. Good tip about threading the front two bolts in first loosely so that you have some wiggle room getting the big boy (in the back) back in. Overall, nice video and excellent instruction. For anyone about to tackle this, allow yourself plenty of time and stay patient. It is doable by ANYONE and you'll wind up saving a cool $300 in labor.
I’m struggling with the back pivot as at now. Still can’t loosen it
I'm about to do the same job this weekend..😂
Thank you dude!!! Local stealer wanted 3 hrs labor for US$450. Your vid convinced me that I could do it. A helping 3rd hand makes it much easier to reinstall. ONE TIP- going back in the slot with the tab at 12 o'clock, my bracket (kia soul) was rotated to about 2 o'clock and couldn't understand why. PANIC!!! Stopped to look and THINK, and realized that opening the tilt lever allows the bracket/column to rotate! It was easy after that and installing the rear bolt. Thank you sir
You do an absolutely GREAT job of explaining the steps. I love seeing and hearing your “step by step” explanations! Thank You from Western Kentucky 😊
Thank you so much!!!! We were quoted $500+ for this. I went home afterwards and did research, found your video, we followed it, and now my steering wheel is like new!!!! All for $15. You’re so good at explaining, thank you so much
Thank you so much!!!!! I was quoted well over $700+ for this! You have no idea how grateful I am for this video ! Great angles and so detailed! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Outstanding video to repair a left-hand drive, GD series i30. A few points not mentioned that I learned the hard way that are handy for RHD owners.
1. For Right-Hand drive vehicles, the pivot bolt is very hard to access as the fuse panel is mounted on the right and you will need some serious contortionist skills.
2. When dropping the column, make sure the telescopic locking lever is in the locked position. Failure to do so may result in your steering wheel coming completely off the column shaft causing the column to drop onto the module.
Thanks for the guidance. even with my difficulties, it took me 3 hrs to complete (2 hrs accessing and remove/reinstalling the pivot bolt)
My 2013 Hyundai Elantra was a tad different. It was missing the airbag (or maybe it didn’t have one to begin) but this video was extremely thorough and detailed for a beginner like myself.
The rubber bushing cost me $13 from autozone and saved me $400+ from dealership quotes. This video saved my wallet and my patience.
Overall took me and my brother-in-law 3.5 hours from start to finish, runs like brand new. Thank you for this video, very good!
Did your steering wheel shake at like 50 mph?
@@brookeharashinski9679 it would make a clunk sound every time I turned it left or right, hit a bump in the road, anything. I wouldn’t say it shook but it made a horrible sound every time. Metal on metal is what I was hearing since the rubber bushing was literally obliterated in pieces and melted inside. Easy fix once you take the effort to drop the steering column.
@John Doe yes but it depends on mileage and it was limited coverage in my case
Just had to replace this piece of trash and it took me about 3hrs because the bolt in the back sidnt want to go in. Thanks to your video i was able and confident enough to tackle it on my own with the result being no more noise and no lights on the dash so i really appreciate your tutorial!!!!
Great video. I noticed a clunking in the steering column area that got considerably worse lately. Looking under the steering column it didn't feel like the universal joints were loose and it sounded like it was coming from above the high joint so I wasn't sure what it was. This was the first video I looked at after searching on the internet and it was exactly what I needed! Thanks for the very detailed description, made this job a breeze. Now I should be good for another 270,000 miles (can anyone beat that?)!
Man you killed it on this video. I just watched 7-8 videos on how to do this and of course I watched yours last. If I had seen yours first I wouldn’t had wasted my time on others. You did such a wonderful job showing the steps. Thank you so very much. I have to do this on my sons 2013 Elantra GT hatchback this week. You gave me so much confidence. Thank you again.😇😇🙏🏻
Thanks for taking the time to explain the process! I tackled my 2013 Sonata today since I was starting to develop the clunk. It took me just a bit over 2 hours and it went pretty smooth.
Best step by step video. I love seeing the difficulties and how you stick to it. Also, big props for realizythat you’re not just repairing it, but “making a video.” Moving the camera with lighting and sound was really appreciated.
Great video, clear and concise. I would not have attempted this job without it. It took two of us about three hours to do it from start to end working on a 2014 Kia Forte. The most difficult parts was getting the cross bolt to thread AND getting the steering column back in position hooking the tab into the support bracket. Other than that it was fairly straight forward and was a savings north of $500. Thank you.
Steering column was heavy as hell! At least you had help! And trying to get that bolt threaded was crazy! Saved a lot of money!!
😂😂😂
One of the best how to videos I’ve seen. Thank you.
Excellent guide… can’t recommend it enough. Extremely thorough with no steps missing.
I have a right hand drive i30 2012 manual gearbox and everything was the same except I had to unbolt three nuts holding fuse box so I could make room to remove main bolt holding steering column.
Same here. Dealer was going to charge $500. parts$25 time 1.5 hours done. best video ever
Thanks first of all for your help !!
I own an i30 /2010 and I have the same problem in the steering wheel !
Please let me know, where can I find this tiny gear!
Thanks in advance !!
Georgios from Crete !!
The persistence to get the details and shot angles was amazing. Thanks so much @DIY Auto Homeschool
Thank you! You have dressed on yourself a subscriber in me especially if you keep up these amazing camera angles and detailed explanation... Being a young mechanic 29 years old I know that nobody will really hold your hand through anything but to be honest if you ask me I think there's just not enough patience or time to go around. You're inspiring patience in many of us keep up the good work!
Thank you for the video! I was able to replace this part myself and saved $500, which was the quote I received from the mechanic I took it to. I was able to do it without disconnecting the u joint. Was able to do it in about 2.5 hours. And, wow! No more clicking and clunking. Been driving for years with this problem. Thanks for the insight which made it go much easier and smoother.
Great video!! Very detailed and well explained throughout entire video. Just completed the job on 2013 Hyundai Elantra. Thanks for the assistance and guidance. I couldn’t have completed job without your help.
Brilliant video thanks. Took me about an hour with the occasional reference back to this video. $10 fix for what the stealership wanted to charge me $560 for. Only variation was the bolt on the back of the rack was a 14mm on my 2013 Elantra GLS.
I just finished this job on my daughters 2013 Hyundai Elantra GLS using this video as a guide. This video was great. My car and I am assuming everyone else there might be some slight difference do to different options each car has. Mine did not have the lower air bag but had a lower support brace instead .The brace had 4 bolts to remove.Other differences included that I had more electrical connectors to disconnect at the steering wheel. The main idea is that you going to drop the top steering wheel down so disconnect any wires that are hook up to it.
The bottom part of the steering wheel ( the electrical disconnects) was exactly the same as the video .
** The most difficult part for me was the ONE Back Bolt that hold the steering wheel in the slot. It was a bit hard to get to But it would not budge. I had to get out a long half inch breaker bar to bust in loose. Even with the half inch breaker bar it did not to come lose. Finally I was able to break it lose to unscrew. Don’t know if I could done it without have the breaker bar though..
The KIA 2012 Forte I just did this procedure on had FIVE bolts holding that same lower support brace below the dash! LuLz
How did you get it back in? Been trying to get that back bolt in for 2 days, cannot seem to get it to threads whichever way I rock the column.
Just fixed my own car with the help of this video, hardest part was lifting the column back into place
Also phenomenal camera work! That really helped!
Excellent video, just finished this jib and it went well. Just for anyone out there that is considering doing this job. Be aware that the steering wheel column is very heavy, clumsy and wobbly making it difficult to to lift and maneuver into position. Not to say it can't be done but it does take some time to do.
Just finished mine. This video made it much easier than having to figure it out on my own. Gave me the confidence to tackle this job.
OMG!! I have had this problem for several months and I feel I can do this myself but I have no tools however this was a GREAT!! video step by step and have saved me several hundreds of $$$ that I do not have the piece cost me $3 I found a mobile mechanic who is on the WAY!!! right now I appreciate you explaining this and hope nothing but greatness to you and the family thank you again
My man! Thank you! This is explained fantastically I felt as though I could do this as soon as I finished the video! Thank you! No more intimidation!
where are you located if you could it for me to my hyundai elantra 2012?
Great instruction! Just did this for my daughter’s car. The dealer wanted 400-500 bucks to replace! Her car is a 2013 Sonata , so had a few different wire hook ups and brackets but overall was very close to your video. Thank you for making this video… you just saved me 500 bucks minus the $15dollar part.
Wow man. Can’t thank you enough. You just walked me through this. One of the tougher things I’ve had to fix on a car. Keep it going Mario. Much love!
I used your diagnostic method on a Kia Soul 2012 model today.... worked like a charm....THANK YOU VERY MUCH from the bottom of my empty wallet. I guarantee you saved me 100s of dollars and days of no car for a 15.00 part (Oreillys). This is about the stupidest design I have ever seen. Why bury a part that is destined to fail so deeply in a steering column ? It truly makes you think the car makers are setting you up for a big expense. These cars are economical...bought mainly by folks who cant afford a porsche... and probably don't have hundreds of dollars to drop on a tough repair. I will be looking at your sight frequently . Once again thank you
Thank you! This video almost perfectly matched my 2013 Elantra GT. Only a few of the cable connections were different. None of the other videos I watched were this good - you helped me tremendously!
Do you happen to remember the part number for the Elantra GT?
Wow let me start off by thanking you for posting this video with step by step details it sure gave me the confidence to take on this job I’m a single mom who has no help at all the quotes I got were expensive and this saved me some money keep doing what your doing I could bet you have many happy returning customers even the radio presets you are the man! God Bless!
Hands down the best video to watch for this project! I just replaced my coupler and I was able to do it by myself and it took a little over 3 hours. I struggled to put the big screw back in, my suggestion would be to unlock your steering wheel adjuster if you accidently locked it in the process. Other than that everything went great. I just subscribed, thank you!
The best video about this problem ever, bit long but I watched to the last minute. Well done, thanks
Best “how to” video ever! I have this exact issue with my wife’s 2012 Elantra. You just saved me labor fee’s, I’ll be fixing it myself. Thank you!
I replaced my wife's 2012 in about an hour. You can do it!
I successfully followed these instructions to replace this steering coupler in i30 GD 2012. It was righthand drive. In this case to get access to the kingpin bolt that holds the steering column in place the fuse box needs to be moved. Easy to do. 3 nuts. Then it looks really hard to reach but do not fear. With a socket extension you are able to reach it and also able to hold the socket ratchet head to make it easier to undo. Extension also needs to be used to get the bolt back in place. Fairly easy. You can just wobble the steering column to line up the hole and the tip of the bolt is tapered so it goes easily into the hole.
Excellent video. I appreciated all the detail. The only problem I had was putting the steering column back into place. If you can have someone hold the wheel while you are getting it back into the holder, it helps. Also, locking the wheel tilt control in place before you drop the column may help when lining up the two front column nuts.
You’re a champ, this is exactly my model, I have everything apart and was about to tackle the column removal,and seeing you take the column out gives me more confidence on doing it myself. Thanks for making this awesome video
Amazing work and thank you so much for the video! The steering feels a lot smoother and does not vibrate at high speeds.
Few suggestions for the people who’ll be working on the same model as mine 2011 Hyundai Elantra GLS:
1. The wire Harness shown in the video is for an Elantra GT which is much simpler. There are lot more wires to unclip so just keep an eye on the wiring harness layout. Keep in mind the steering column will drop so you don’t want any wires that might be damaged.
2. Attaching the steering column back is a 2 person job. The assembly is heavy so unless you’re a professional mechanic or heavy lifter, take someone’s help. The big bolt attaching at the back is a real pain.
Overall it took me around 2 hours but it was totally worth it. I was quoted about $250 for the whole job and I did it in $7.
Can’t thank you enough for the video. Really motivating for amateurs who are trying to work on their cars.
You can get the steering column up by yourself with your foot and screw in 1 bolt
Yea, been trying to get that back bolt in for 2 days, cannot seem to get it to threads whichever way I rock the column.
Thank you. Knocked this out at work for a customer in about an hour. 2011 Hyundai Elantra Touring. Setup was a different since this was sideways facing EPS motor. But the concept was about 85% similar and made the process a breeze.

Thank you so much for this video. I love your patient and encouraging manner when you describe step by step how to complete this repair. I successfully repaired my 2013 Hyundai Elantra using your instructions. The part cost me $13.99 at O'Reillys. I followed your instructions except my Elantra didn't have the mentioned air bag which actually made things easier. Getting the steering column back on was a little tricky as the steering wheel separated from the steering column. I probably could have avoided that by locking the steering tilt. I had to add a bit of extra time to ensure the steering wheel was calibrated correctly, meaning the wheel was straight when the car wheels were straight. Other than that the repair went smoothly and I am very appreciative. Thank you again.
Hahaha... I separated them, too. I suggested to secure with the tilt, too. Should have read your comment first!
I have a 2011 Elantra with the airbag not there instead there was a silver metal part with 5 bolts attaching it. Did you have this part? It’s not in the video. It’s got one bolt that’s different from the other 4 which I cannot get off. The other question is with placing the long bolt back into the steering column when putting back together. So many comments on steering says the steering is now off. Did you have any issues with it on the Elantra?
@@tree2paper Yes I had that silver part. 4 bolts and the 5th one is a nut if I remember correctly. "Cannot get it off" - what is the issue with that?
Alignment: BEFORE you are dropping the column, secure the steering wheel to the middle part with that lever that you use to set the height and angle of the steering wheel. Otherwise you will pull them apart and you will lose your alignment.
@@m19710310 it was of course the tool I was using - thanks for the response
Your video allowed my dad to fix my 2013 Hyundai Elantra steering wheel click. This was the very best demonstration of a youtube video I have seen. Many thanks to you buddy!!
Tip: take pictures along the way, especially the wirings.
Great video! I used it to repair my daughter's 2011 Elantra. The only difference I found was that the noise was present whether or not the power was on to the vehicle. I decided to go ahead and replace the part because it less than $10 and it was worth a try. That was the problem. Thanks again!!
You the best bro I did it today by my self and it was amazing work smooth after changing the part thanks bro for your amazing work
great video! thank you sir! I will add just one point.......to old guys like me with bad backs, the steering column can be a bear to get back in because of the weight and the cramped space. I used a small scissors jack to lift and hold the steering column while I maneuvered it into position. An extra set of hands would have been better, but oh well, it's all back together now. Thanks again for the excellent instructions!
I somehow let the steering column come apart when reinstalling and now the steering wheel is at the 2 o clock position when wheels are straight. Is it possible to take back out and reinstall properly or is an alignment the only option? Thanks for the video!
I have watched 3 other videos on how to do this. No doubt this was the most clear , easy to understand step by step of how this is done. Great job
Thanks so much for the great video. Really the most important part for me was the pep talk at the beginning and end! Putting the worry of the airbag aside was a big one also. One thing to mention is if you have a power seat move it all the way back BEFORE you disconnect the battery. I forgot and had to wait another 20 min after battery disconnect. The hardest part was getting the column back into place. Important tip of getting the back tab into the slot, then pivot it up and start one of the 12mm nuts on the stud, but doesn’t mean it’s easy. This was the hardest part, but doable and once held in place with one nut it was easy to start the 14mm horizontal bolt by wiggling the column. Getting the old coupler goo out took longer than I thought, even with the column dropped, access to it is not great, but got it done. Thanks again!
Thankyou for this detailed unhurried explanation. This will save me big dollars in getting a shop to do this for me.
There is a recall on this part for car 10 years. I didn't see anything about a mileage cap. Also great video and informative
I've watched several videos on this procedure and this was the best. Thanks
He laid everything out and made it so easy to follow. I have the same sonata and I fixed this problem myself with just basic tools. not hard at all. just time consuming.
Great video! Well filmed and your explanations are spot on. The job looks intimidating but you have made it easy. Anyone with this problems NEEDS TO WATCH THIS VIDEO!
Thank you so much for this excellent video. I did this on a 2013 Hyundai i30 right hand drive. The steps are exactly the same except for getting access to the pivet bolt at the back of the steering column. I had to remove the fuse panel box and even then it was difficult to get to because the brake light switch was in the way. Thanks again for the best tutorial video I've seen.
Excellent! I've watched several of these videos and yours is by far the best! Thank you.
Thank you!! I did it! Following your instructions . You saved me $1300.
Thank you for the step by step video. After watching this video, I was able to replace the coupler on my 2101 Elantra. The dealer was asking asking $400. Thank you again!
I think my wife is now your biggest fan, she walked in right as you were saying to write down the radio stations. She said "Wow, that is SO nice! I like him!"
Great tutorial, and even though my 2011 Elantra is slightly different in the wiring connections and lack of the airbag, I was able to get it figured out without too much trouble. And letting us know what tools we will need before starting work was fantastic. Thanks!
I just changed mine out and it took about 3 hours but success! Mine has the key turn ignition and doesn’t have the airbag that you took out. My steering assembly came apart and I had to line back up the steering but, everything’s straight now! Very clear and informative.
I just installed the steering coupler, and I couldn't have done it without your help. My daughters car was 2k miles over warranty and the dealer wanted $589. I picked up the part for $8 from them and you and I spend the afternoon together . The only issue was I don't have the coupe, I have the limited so minor differences like the airbag but nothing I couldn't figure out. Your the 👌 best
Thanks so much for this tutorial! I've been putting this job off for close to two years. I finally got around to this job today. Now my Elantra is nice and quiet!
I will tell the honest truth. I did this job successfully with the help of this video. But it was a huge nightmare all because of the one bolt at the rear. It was hard enough to remove it but to put it back in without room to move or to even be able to see the hole then to get the bolt in the hole and then to thread the thing was a miracle. At one stage I thought I would have to get the car towed. Yes I did it and saved a lot of money but never again. I would recommend take it to a repair shop. It’s easy enough to drop the steering wheel and replace the perished rubber but that bolt at the rear is a serious nightmare. Maybe because my Hyundai is right hand drive it could of been harder I don’t know.
Amazing tutorial ! I've just done my right hand drive hyundai i40 as im in the UK. I used your video to do this. The only wires I had to disconnect ( for anyone doing a right hand drive ) were the 2 from the power steering motor and the airbag below the steering wheel and light headlight switch. All others to stalks were left plugged in. I did pull the thick loom from the fasteners. This allowed the column to be dropped and not stretch the loom. I didn't have to remove the fuse box. Managed to get the long bolt with a socket and a extender bar. My first attempt and took me around 2 hours. Just double check that you connect everything back up. The 2 to the motor, the airbag below the steering wheel and you shouldn't have any lights on dash. Drives lovely now.
Mate excellent video, thanks to you I managed to get the repair done. My car was a Kia cerato, 2012. The EPS light was still on after the repair. My mechanic removed using a diagnostic tool. Thanks again, much appreciated.
