Thanks for the vid. Bro. I just finished mine. It's 10:27 pm EST where I'm at and I started like at 4:50. The first three plugs went by surprisingly fast. When I was screwing the engine cover back on, the right corner bolt seemed take forever to tigthen. My wife was helping me when I said, "this feels sorta loose but I feel like I'm overtightening". My wife was like, "well, just stop then". I was like, "one more turn and that's it". SNAP! Freaking bolt broke ON THE BLOCK. Shit. Now to carefully extract it without damaging the threading (cuz it would have been game over at that point) and then find a similar bolt. An hour later, removed and bolt replaced. But then the three plug assemblies from the front of the engine came off in parts. Like only the center (I think that's #4) came out in one piece. The other two came out with just the top part and it was a nightmare removing the rubber plugs without damaging them. Whatever. That's my horror story. Found out that the passenger side headlight wire is fried. The fuel pump has already been replaced under warranty (just before the recall was announced). This vehicle is starting to show its true colors.

@@naimarbaje3202 I’m sorry to hear that, but I’m glad you got it done 👊🏽… here’s my story, I worked at this vehicle early Friday morning for check engine light concerns I fixed the CEL and also mentioned a spark plugs service, I got a green light from the customers around 4:30 pm , customer wants their car back at 5pm, I’m like yeah I can get it done, I was doing good and confident that I can beat the promise time until I installed the 14mm intake manifold incorrectly, the bolt is not in the hole it’s just seating in the bracket, then I started the manifold long bolt by hand, when I used my ratchet I felt something is not right, well I ignored it and kept going until I heard a snap and the 10mm bolt kept spinning, we have to give the customer car rental with company expense and I showed up the next day to get it done. Small mistake ruined my weekend…

I changed My 2016 kia sedona spark plugs and had to buy to different brand spark plugs Took it for a test drive and stopped at a stop sign and shut off on me now it won't crank no start😢 Could it be a crank shaft position sensor problem or ignition switch sensor idk their s a list of possibilities. I know the battery is good, and starter relay is good I knocked on the starter didn't work
@WrenchingRyan14 күн бұрын
Sorry to hear that, so technically no crank no start after replacing the spark plugs, since the engine won’t crank don’t worry about the crankshaft position sensor, under the dashboard on driver side you will see the IPM look for start fuse, you gonna need a test light, ground your test light then check the start fuse, if the your test light turn on while you try to start the engine then you’re ignition switch is good but if you’re test light did not turn on then you have a bad ignition switch.

KIa of St. Augustine has my 2013, with 75k on the motor. They're doing the engine replacement as I type this. They didn't know I was a mechanic and told me the motor replacement was free of charge but I needed 3150.00 in repairs. Hood insulation, 800. Full brake job with rotors, 1300.00, two new front tires for 900.00 and if I don't buy the tires from them, they said they can't test drive my car after the motor replacement because there's only 1/16 of tread and it'll be too dangerous. I politely declined and told them I'd bring them the two tires. I was blown away when the dude told me that shit. I know they gotta make money, totally. But damn, that's straight up gouging me.
