I have Elantra 2008 2.0 L, Automatic, 108 K miles. Dealer replace Only the Timing belt at 51 K miles, the Rest is Original. I will Replace at 110 K the timing belt, W/P, Tensioner, Idler, and Both Serpentine Belts.
What About Cam and Crankshaft Seals ?
What About Coolant Hoses and Heater Hoses ?
What About Thermostat ?
I Replaced Spark plug and Wires.
I have Valve cover Gasket and Planning to replace as Well. Thank you Guys.
 
Personally, I would leave the seals alone unless they are leaking
The hoses would be inspected to see if there is any splits or wear (softness)
You could replace the thermostat but if it is working??
And the thermostat is fairly easy to change when necessary.
Spark plugs and wires are a good idea if you feel they need it.
Again gasket ... would see if they are leaking.

I am the kind of person who replaces things if they fail.
Cause I know sometimes preventive maintenance can cause more problems
Of course, change the timing belt before it fails.

---- By Experts and YouTube Mechanics is Better Replace at my Miles Car, Thermostat, Coolant Hoses . I have them Any way; I already Bough them.
---- Valve Cover Gasket I bough it as well and Wait Until get Dry, doesn't make sense; Its Simple in my Car.
 
Seems like you already made up your mind on what to do to the car.
So why ask??

It is your money.
Do whatever you want.
What ever makes you happy.

You are right. When We Love Some thing, We take Care.
If I asked, was Looking to See what People have done, If it was Bad, Broken, Leaking, How many Miles last old parts, Used OEM or Aftermarket, What can I do before Happen to me, etc,etc, . I think is Better and More readable go to YouTube .
 
Yeah, my first car was like that.
It was an old car. I bought new distributor, car and rotor
Put new brakes on it. Four drums.
New plugs and wires. New coil.
Changed the hoses.
Just wanted the car to run safely.

Knowing what I do now.
Wouldn't have thrown so much money into it
Either buy a newer car or just try to get the best service life out of the parts.

Oh, nothing wrong about youtube.
Lots of information there.
Those guys at google really knew what it meant.
 
i have a 2004 hyundai sonata L it was parked running the car set up for 2 years and now having problems getting fuel pump to work i have replaced fuel pump and filter in the tank and still not working
 
Did you see if the fuel pump is getting powers and grounds?

Check the fuel pump relay in the engine bay fuse box
Check youtube videos on how to do a relay by pass test
Or just how to test relays.

It will let you know whether the control side of the relay needs to be looked at
Or the load side of the relay needs more attention
Helps to find where a possible fault may be at
