Kia Sedona: Broken Rear Springs / Rear Shocks

1. I know I mentioned in this video there would be upcoming videos on the rear brakes and the font wheel bearing but unfortunately due to time restraints I was not able to record those two videos 😕 We'll get the next one though!

2. Great that you've done these videos..
   Greetings from England!

3. Never seen an upper shock mount designed like that.

4. I have a friend that needs his Springs replaced.. what was the part number at Napa for those???

5. I'm impress how this guy make everything without any eye protection, lung protection or even any glove on hands.

6. Those brakes look new 😉😉

7. Q; is there an after market shock or coil spring to raise the Kia Sedona height ?

8. Спасибо, хорошее видео. Да и грамотную конструкцию инженеры Киа сделали.

9. This is a great video very helpful

10. Thanks, I have to do the same (rear springs and shocks) on my 2007 Hyundai Entourage and this video really helped. Appreciated also your bit of humor.

11. kia wont let anywhere sell me the springs. they want 238 po. they were 100 for the pair on napa

12. Now do this on the ground 😂 it sucks

13. master class , good luck for you

14. I don't understand. You say the NAPA is not a sponsor, but your shop sign says NAPA service center. Could you explain what I'm missing?

15. Never gets to that point in my city. Kias are the hottest cars to get stolen.

16. Very helpful , Thank you.

17. Did you replace the spring insulators or did you use the old ones?

18. How about replacing the lower bushing kia sodona?

19. It's 5 o'clock somewhere

20. I'm going to install sumo springs all around to help out with the weight, this van is almost 5k pounds, at least the EX …

21. I notice you used krown penetrating oil but fluid film rustproofing. Do you not like Krown rustproofing? I’m in Ct and have a tough time obtaining krown but I’m told by many it’s better. You being closer to Canada probably can get it easier. Just wondering

22. You probably already do this but I thought of a way to get ride height for tightening bushings. Raise the assembly just until the weigh is suspended by the jack.

23. Penetrating oil = 1 Rust = 0

24. Question: would it be easier loosening the outter control arm bolt and removing the inner control arm bolt(while supporting the control arm) to lower the control arm and remove the spring? I would think, since the spring is closer to the outside of the control arm, there would be less torque on the inner end and therefore easier to reinstall, plus less shimying around than the knuckle end. I'm about to do my springs on my 2008 Kia Sedona(New York car- 140,000 miles- regularly undercoated)

25. Quick question. Your video was a big help in maybe figuring out my issue I'm having with my 06 Sedona. The vehicle has been to two different shops to find a banging noise in the rear suspension. They can hear it in the test drive but can't find the problem. The van has 260k on it. The shocks were replaced when I bought it and the lower control arms in the rear had new bushings put it. The banging issues begins after more then one bump in the road. A little single bump won't make any noise. Also the front struts were just replaced and now the van sits low in the rear. So with all of this and before I decide to replace every part in the rear suspension how do I check to see if the sprigs are bad. Also the van did a lot of hauling.

26. Good Job. I’m sure glad I dont have to deal with all those Crusties like you do…

27. Every time you've said Deez nuts I can't stop laughing it's such a worn out joke but when you say it it gets revived😂

28. QUESTION to Eric (or youtubers here) : My knuckle bolt is rust frozen in his bushing/ knuckle ..All the others arms are free…Can I disconnect all the non-frozen arms(and swaybar link and shock)) and lower the whole knuckle assembly in order to remove (and replace) the coil spring without disconnecting the lower arm I mean the camber adjutment bolt(and lower arm) will remain in place ? Mine is a Sonata 2009…similar suspension.

29. Waw, that'd need more than shocks and breaks, if I were to be the owner I'd also change those shock brackets , and it surely needs a whole break system replacement…

30. All wrenches are hammers too.

32. Just wanted to thank you for this video.

    Wife and kids got in the car last week and she said she heard a noise like a gun went off in the garage! I looked underneath later and saw paint flakes all around under the left rear spring. I thought I was going to need spring compressors and it would be really involved.

    After seeing your video I had the confidence to do it myself. Looked forever for a decent price spring and finally got a Kia spring for $110 shipped. Got it done tonight. Thanks for your videos!

33. I always think he says "welcome to the self made auto channel" 🤣😅. But I love this channel. I watch it on my lunch breaks 😁

34. a lot of miles on a 10 year old Sedona…. 'until it becomes kinetic' … snarky but very true. Mechanics can get hurt in an instant by one goof… Steel and hundreds of pounds can move very quickly…. awful music track at the end.

35. 2006 Kia Sedona ….mann, I need your help we in the maintenance dept, are removing the rear lower control arm/drivers side crossbeam arm, etc…and the lowest bolt through the spindle is stuck in the bushing, the nut is off but the bolt wont slide out and we so far damaged the rubber on the bushing also

36. Someofthemonkey funny

37. Can someone explain to me why this cheap family van has full independent rear suspension? It's not like the person is going to be taking sharp corners as a fast speed. It will still have tremendous amounts of under steer, and probably topple over on its side if it took a corner too quickly. I feel like a semi independent torsion beam system would fit better and bring the overall price down too.

38. Man I'd give both my lugnuts to have access to a lift. I just love your videos! I been binge watching them all and they are all awesome!

39. Thanks for the video. I'm attempting this tomorrow. If you were doing this again I saw on another video that they took the inner bolt completely out on the control arm and let it pivot on the outer. Looks to of gave better leverage… well they still struggled. Any suggestions? Plus when you were jacking the control arm back up into place was there a jack stand at the front of the vehicle? Thanks

40. Thank you for posting this video, I had a question on what spray were you using on the parts after you removed them and the rubber top for the spring?

41. Does your town not have a car wash? Seems like half the vehicles that come in have salt corrosion…I know it’s New York State but spray that crap off!

42. started feeling streetspeed717 vibes @18:40

43. A lot of Kia's pass through your shop.
