If the engine is making the ticking noise in a Sonata,you may have a recalled defective engine which may be replaced for free at Hyundai if you are within the warranty mileage.You will need to provide proof of oil changes.

Sometimes the mass air flow sensor will become clogged with some miniscule particles of dust or whatever else. When you open up your hood somewhere near where the air filter box is, there will be a hose running from that to the engine, the mass air flow sensor should be somewhere in near there. They are easy to remove and should be held in place with a few screws. Make sure not to touch any of the electrical connectors on the inside or allow them to get dirty. I used mass air flow sensor cleaner from the local parts place but it is a bit pricey. There may be some alternative cleaners available that are not as expensive. Take the sensor to a relatively dust free area and spray it all over with the cleaner and allow to dry. At the same time under the hood where the sensor was spray that area as well. Once the sensor has dried out re-install it and you should notice an improvement. If the problem still persists you may need to change your spark plugs, or spark plug wires.

The cam chains have developed slack and are slapping on the cam chain guides which helps prevent the cam chains from popping off in case of slack developing . The chain guides are made of some type of plastic material and develop significant wear.

2013 Hyundai Sonata making noises and engine light on. We heard that Hyundai won't cover engine if it is not with original owner. Is this true?

I would check with dealership first before I would listen to someone who "thinks". That will be your best bet. Get the information from the "horses mouth". It wouldn't hurt to ask.... I'm not trying to be a smartie or anything but I hope this gets you the right info. for your repairs..... Jesus loves you, John 3:16-17 (KJV)

Engine started making ticking noise, checked oil ....very low. added oil, same, added marvel mystery oil, same thing. need an engine job?? 2008 huyandi sonota 4 cyl.

the ticking noise could be the rockers and the clearance may need to be checked and possibly adjusted.you should get the oil pressure checked with a gage to make sure its not an oil pressure problem.and start getting your oil changed on a regular basis as this is the most common problem for engine problems and failure and its the cheapest most cost effective maintenance.

2009 Hyundai Sonata- Car is making a ticking, sometimes clunking noise from the front left side, when making a left turn. What could be causing this noise?

That will be your front axle or your left side ball joints, have them checked out, it will not be an easy fix or something that you can do yourself, it will continue to happen and wont get fixed with time.
