2014 Elantra Radom misfire code
I wanted everyone to know that the dealership in Oklahoma City AutoMax was unable to pinpoint the exact reason for this code. I spent about $2,000 in recommended repairs. They said to replace the ignition coils, spark plugs. Problem came back a week later. Car I bought used no warranty, 79,000 miles on it. Then they said to replace the fuel injectors and a fuel cleaning service, nope didn’t fix the stalling issue. Came right back. I did take some auto repair classes in my earlier years. I was just being lazy because I was working so much I thought I could trust them and their technicians to diagnose the problem. Nope just parts changers work there. I remembered that a cylinder leak down test will tell the condition of the engine. It did and my compression reading were cylinder 2 @ 165, cylinder 1@ 160, 3-4 @ 155-157. Found a remanufactured engine on E-bay got real lucky on the price for 1,200 plus shipping had a damaged plastic valve cover and the crate had damage from the forklift no big deal I said. Put it in myself as I was done with the garage mechanics in Oklahoma… you don’t even need a license to work here unlike Michigan we’re I’m from you do. You can’t just buy some tools and say your a mechanic. Anyway the Radom misfire code disappeared and my gas mileage went up from 17 mpg to around 24 average mostly city.

Great, thanks for the update.
Now,, let's get to it, did you find the real cause for the misfire ? We ask this because we don't want you to become just a parts changer, lol. |
