Elantra X20 in the workshop

Have plan the Saturday 10/2/2018 for my elantra busy day with mileage at 162,090km on the odo.


Bought the necessary stuff, the rest will be from the workshop.  

Radiator hose, time to change as the car is over 10 years. There are 3 hose, however only one shown and the 3rd hose is a smaller and short but the spare parts shop run out of stock. So make do whatever that is available.


New valve gears rubber gasket as to patch the leaks, original set cost me RM45

This is the spark plug seal, RM20 for 4 pc

Tming belt ( 90,000km spec) complete with auto tensioner, oil seals and bearing. This cost me RM280

Have extra coolant in stock.


This is the condition of the timing belt ...looks scary with visible crack. It's 90,000km specs, looks like better to change at 75,000 -80,000km.

New timing belt.


Next is the radiator hose, it's good that I wrap it with heat resistance foam sheet. Still looks good but after 10 years....it's better to change rather than facing with burst radiator hose out of no where. The old hose on the left. Only 2 hose was replace, 2nd hose not shown here and 3rd hose( bended and short) not replace as it was still flexible.


Coolant was also replace, 1/2 bottle into coolant  reservoir . And 1 bottle into the radiator. 


Valve gear rubber gasket and spark plug seal . Now the engine looks cleaner.


 Atf hose was also replace as the old one already hardened and leaking. That hose alone cost me RM50 !

ATF oil was also renewed with my own stock.

Total labur RM450 inclusive 6% GST
