The rear bushings on our Sportage's front control arms were worn out, which made the front suspension less compliant and more prone to vibrations. As such, it was time they got replaced. Since the front bushings and ball joints were of the same age, we replaced those as well in order to bring the control arms back to factory specifications.
The OE part numbers for the components we changed are as follows:
- Front bushing: 54551A4000
- Front bushing stopper: 545524W000
- Rear bushing: 545842T000
- Ball joint: 545302S500
- Front bushing bolt: 5779107000
- Rear bushing bolt: 545633K000
- Complete left-side control arm: 545002Y500
- Complete right-side control arm: 545012Y500

As always, a very good video, with very good explanations and theory. Many thanks! Looking forward to the next ones!😊

Thank you very much! There are more on the way 😁

Multumesc pentru informatii! Astept un material si cu schimbarea bucselor la bratul spate!

@TheMissingBolt 10 месяцев назад

Cu multa placere! Din pacate nu cred ca o sa mai apuc sa le fac si pe cele de pe puntea spate, pentru ca momentan sunt in stare buna iar pe masina am pus-o la vanzare. Insa mai am material de editat pentru inca 3 filme la Sportage, pe care sper sa-l termin in viitorul apropiat.

Have to do this job soon. I'm really concerned the front horizontal control arm bolt will be seized to the nut that's inside the cradle. You cannot access the nut without cutting a hole in the cradle I believe. Really hope this doesn't happen. There is a small hole I might be able to get a torch tip inside to heat the nut. Fingers crossed.

@TheMissingBolt Месяц назад

Yes, fingers crossed! In my case, the right one required more effort to remove than the left one but ultimately both came out normally. Usually if the bolt is stuck, it's not stuck on the nut threads but on the inside of the bushing, so the risk of damaging the sub-frame is small. II suggest using plenty of penetrating oil for a few hours before attempting to remove the bolt.

Great video and incredibly detailed as ever 🙂interested to know what length the pry bar is you use, looks like a US Pro?

@TheMissingBolt 5 месяцев назад

Thanks for watching! I've seen sets of 4 pry bars like the one I have being sold under many different brands, like BGS, US Pro etc. but size-wise they are all the same 😀 The one in the video is the largest from the set of 4, with approx. 60 cm total length and about 45 cm blade length.

Congrats for a job well done and for all the explanations!

Thanks! 😀 It took me about 2 days to do all the work and film everything as well.

Am si eu de anul trecut de la dealer un deviz estimativ, lucrarile nu am apucat sa le fac. Tendoane spate+ suruburi reglaj 1500 lei. Bucse bascule fata inlocuiee 1000 lei. Cap bara stanga inlocuire 700 lei. Geometrie roti 700 lei. 😢🤷‍♂️

@TheMissingBolt 10 месяцев назад

@@alexdell84 Si noi a trebuit sa facem tendoanele spate in 2021, la scurt timp dupa ce a iesit din garantie masina, pentru ca se uzasera bucsele. Le-am facut la dealer si tot cam atat ne-a cerut. Mi s-a parut enorm, sincer. Iar 700 de lei pentru o geometrie mi se pare mai mult decat exagerat. Prin Bucuresti, inclusiv in reprezentante, nu mi-a cerut nimeni mai mult de 350 😑

@TheMissingBolt 10 месяцев назад

@@alexdell84 Am schimbat si eu acum cateva saptamani capetele de bara (originale), bieletele (Lemforder) si accesoriile pentru bielete. M-au costat pana in 350 de lei piesele pentru o singura roata, deci 700 de lei in total pentru toata puntea, plus cam 150 geometria. Versus reprezentantele care cereau intre 1500 si 2000 de lei pentru toata lucrarea... 😑 Inca n-am apucat sa editez filmarea, o sa apara pe canal cand o termin.

@alexdell84 10 месяцев назад

Am scris eu in graba 700 lei, era 300 lei, scuze.

Foarte bune explicatiile pe care le dai, bravo ,tine-o tot asa !! Ceva sanse sa umblii la bujiile incandescente în viitor? Multumesc

@TheMissingBolt 8 месяцев назад

Multumesc! Nu cred ca o sa apuc sa ma ocup si de bujii din pacate, inca se comporta bine si urmeaza sa vindem masina in curand.

Ai un atelier unde poti fi vazut?Poate am nevoie de ajutorul tau!

@TheMissingBolt 10 месяцев назад

Din pacate nu lucrez intr-un atelier anume. Lucrarile de intretinere pe care le fac sunt aproape exclusiv pentru masinile din familie.

Hello brother do you have any idea about the valve body number of a 2014 kia sportage SL 2.0 CRDi 4WD Diesel . I am having a hard time finding it tho i put it out and search it from every corner .

@TheMissingBolt 10 месяцев назад

Are you referring to the automatic transmission's valve body?

@MoMo-tq8uc 10 месяцев назад

@@TheMissingBolt yes brother

@TheMissingBolt 10 месяцев назад

@@MoMo-tq8uc I just checked my parts catalogue and I sadly I found no reference to the valve body's OE number. What I normally do in such situations is to go to a Kia dealer and ask them for the part number and a quote.

@MoMo-tq8uc 10 месяцев назад

@@TheMissingBolt Thanks brother. In my country there is no dealer . The Valve body harness black plastic is a bit cracked too where the part numb is written and it seems like 46307-3B050 . But my question is can it work with any valve body because in the internet i see 46210-3B011 is the the valve body part nb for 2014-2017 kia sportage in the other hand i also seen 46210-3B200 reffering to 2014-2017 kia sportage . There is plenty of different number after the B . I am lost .

@TheMissingBolt 10 месяцев назад

@@MoMo-tq8uc The only way to be sure is to check against a parts catalogue that searches based on your VIN number. If there's no Kia dealer in your country, then perhaps you could write an e-mail to a dealer from a different country that sold a Sportage similar to yours (Germany or UK, maybe). Provide them with your VIN number and ask for the OE part numbers and prices for the parts you need.
