A 2014 Hyundai Sonata comes with a timing chain, similar to a bicycle chain, made up of multiple links. Unlike a timing belt that needs regular replacement, the chain typically lasts the vehicle's lifetime. However, there may be cases where it doesn't. Detecting signs of a failing chain can help identify issues before they lead to costly engine damage. The most common indicator is a rattling noise in the engine area, caused by small fragments breaking off due to friction and dropping into the oil pan. If you notice this noise, schedule a service appointment promptly. Another red flag is finding metal shavings in the oil. Replacing the timing chain on a 2014 Sonata can cost between $660 to $800, which includes labor.
When should the timing chain be replaced on a 2014 Hyundai Sonata Limited with a 2.0 turbo engine?
