If it is a hybrid, no. Just have to be patient, it took me about 15 min before I got it down to what you see in the video. Even now, I could do it in about 3 or 4 tries.
Good news! I replaced the cells within the hybrid battery of the sonata, 600 miles later, everything seems to have balanced out and the battery holds charge like its new.
Did you make a video how to do it? What indicated the battery was or was going bad? I take you are in the auto repair business as I would have no idea how to it. Cost of the cells you replaced? Great to her you got it resolved!
@@cousinjohncarstuff4568 i made a video its on my youtube. It costed $700 i have no experience in cars. Im just handy. The battery sucked at holding charge and i got a p1b96 check engine light and dealer quoted me 9 grand to replace the battery.
@@cousinjohncarstuff4568 lol. I figured i was screwed. Im just gonna replace the cells with ebay cells, they are oem but from a lower mileage sonata, not sure if they need to be balanced or not
Thanks for a great video. Your technique worked perfectly on my 2017 Hyundai Sonata. You got straight to the point and did not waste time with idle chatter.
It's a shame you're not starting the car and looking at it and showing us the interior and going through the motor and all the things you're supposed to do in order to sell a car rather than just talk
The Chevy Malibu is a 4cylinder with a small carbon footprint & Gm is about to kill it off and Ford killed off all there 4cylinder & V6 sedans so if they won't make 4/6 anymore you will never see a RWD V8 BOF sedan again.
Purchase price, transport cost, money he put into it and a profit after all costs were factored in. Plus the time to locate it. He might look at 10 and only 2 are worth buying so that time, gas, etc are also factored in.

Oh, sorry didn't know it was a rebuilt engine. I can say it was a good reliable car back in the day. One of my friends father had one. Back when AMC/Jeep made a decent car. The Jeeps today are horrible. I just got rid of my 2016 Cherokee because the oil pump went when I was on I-95 here in Philly. Not much of a warning. Low pressure light popped on. Got off 5 miles down the road after I slowed down and the engine was toast. The newer Chryslers and Jeeps are POS!!!👍👍👍
My 17 sonata hybrid has the same issue, except premium fuel will not make it go away it pings really bad at all times, and sometimes even when the hybrid system kicks the engine on you feel the engine bogged down and it bogs down during shifts and hear a whole ton of spark knock. Engine was replaced twice by dealer and the dealer had to mess with the knock sensor a few times to get it quote unquote right.
@@cousinjohncarstuff4568 it’s been doing it for like 20,000 miles that I’ve owned it. I’m gonna take it in and see if they can do this to it and see if it fixes the problem.
Possibly carbon on the valves as it is direct injection. Move the shift lever to the left and shift manually through the gears. How many miles on the odometer?
Take them back. The manager proly wanted to fump this old stock before ozone in the air makes them crack and break down. If you buy new tires, and want to use them in 2 or 3 years because, lets say you got a good price and the date stamp was current and unchanged, seal the tires in plastic. Evacuate air if you want, but the biggest reason is to keep out the ozone which will degrade and eventually trash the tires. YES! Take them back , they also didn't think you were smart enough to know there was a date code, or how to read it. Nice catch!
I know about the date code, trusted it was no more than a yr old. Do not drive enough to wear them out in 3 yrs. Bought at full price from a big name tire dealer.
One of the most underrated cars and car companies ever.If the government hadn't been biased and bailed them out like they.did Chrysler,Dodge and Plymouth,they might still be around!! I have always thought that was a dirty deal and done with taxpayer money 💰💰!!! It seems like the big 3 always get whatever they want.Amc/ Rambler were the first to get into the economy car market and this should have been considered.My brother had an AMC Hornet with a 232 or 258 and he drove it for 300,000 miles and it was still running strong with no blow by when he traded it in.All of his 3 boys were between 6'4" ond 6'8" and his wife was over 6'.Thats a lot of weight to be hauling around!!!
Have to turn the a until you feel a little extra click to the right. (Don't force it!) Then, push in on the rubber release, and it should pop. might take several times of turning the key to the left and back to the right to get it open. Just be patient and don't force it!
