Thank you for this. We’re having the exact problem and does on our 2014 Santa Fe. I replaced all censors and was about to replace coils and got to thinking it might be timing problems. You have just confirmed it for me lol.
Sorry to hear that, but glad this helped you out. I highly recommend replacing what you can while the valve cover and timing cover is off. Ours is running like a champ now! Good luck. 👍
Hi Frank just an update for you. Absolutely correct on that cam shaft/ sprocket. Tore it all apart and it looks like the PIN may have worked itself in to the camshaft on the intake of two four and six. Either way it's not sticking out like it should. Without your video I don't think I would have thought to even look there. Thank you very much!
Thanks for the follow up- glad this helped at least one person. Hate that it happened, but glad you caught it before more damage. Keep those wrenches turning and saving money.
I am having the exact same codes, just all of the sudden started running very rough. Limped it home. I was hoping for something simpler but this makes sense. Glad I found your post before I started replacing sensors, etc! I'll check into this and keep you posted. Thanks!
Definitely replace anything you can while you have it apart; all of this happened around 130,000 miles. Hopefully if it is the busted pin you can remove it without having to replace the camshaft. Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll do my best to help you out.
I would say that's a very unusual break! Thanks for the info. I'm getting ready to replace my rings this year, they are known to have sticky oil rings, and mine has started using oil all of the sudden. PCV already changed, unfortunately that wasn't it.
I have a 2015 that just started this same exact problem I’m not looking forward to all this but I know someone I trust that can probably get it done. I’ve been looking for this for three weeks
I feel your frustration with having to chase this down. Hopefully this will help you and you can get it fixed. Let me know if you have any questions and I’ll do my best to help out.
My buddy told me he’s heard there are some recalls on Hyundai’s right now so I’m hoping maybe it might be included in that if not I’m afraid it’s going to be expensive to fix. Just from seeing how much you had to tare into it, doesn’t look like something I could do on my own.
I am having misfires on bank2 cylinder 2 4 6, on a brand new engine, fuel pressure is good, injecors, ignition coils are good, spark plugs are new and properly gapped, no vacuum leak or fuel leak, misfires only present at idle, while driving they are not present, data shows timing is good, no abnormal noise, long term fuel trim shows -20% in bank2 , but can't find the cause, it's got me scratching my head, driving me nuts
Hi Frank, Seems I am having the same issue as you are having. I got some questions maybe you can help me on it: 1- Did you use any special tool to get the timing shaft held in the position? Or you simple used the marks in the chain? 2- Did you use any mechanic manual to get the torque in the fasteners? 3- Did you remove the engine off the bay, or just the timing chain cover working through the side? 4- Do I have to drain the engine oil prior to remove the timing chain cover? Would you main to explain what did you remove first and going on to reach the timing chain? Thank you very much for any help you can provide.
Hey there, hope the video helped to explain what the issue might be. I’ll do my best to answer your questions. 1. No special tools, just used the timing marks, and took pictures of the cam shafts to make sure they were in the same positions. They make a cam lock you can rent from Autozone for free I think, if not they definitely sell them on Amazon. 2. I googled the tech specifications for the year make and model of my vehicle and was able to find it pretty easy. I can see if I can find the link. 3. I left the engine in the vehicle. Had to support it from below with another jack and a wood block so I could remove the engine mount, and then the timing cover, which you have to remove the valve covers and the water pump too, and the oil pan. 4. Yes, you must drain the engine oil and the coolant prior to the removal of the timing cover.

I mean I’m torn: excited my video helped you out, but angry as this seems like a common problem. Thanks for the follow up, and happy wrench turning!

Yes, same mileage and codes. Thanks!

Yeah but what would the correct ignition timing be on a 1955 Bel Air Chevrolet, with a 327 cubic-inch engine and a four-barrel carburetor?
Use an old school timing gun. 😂
Love that movie!
