The G6DH remanufactured engine is a professionally
remanufactured 3.3L V6 engine designed for select Hyundai and Kia
applications. This engine is identified by the G6DH engine code and
is listed for applications including the Hyundai Azera, Hyundai
Santa Fe, Hyundai Santa Fe XL, Kia Cadenza, Kia Sorento and Kia Sedona.
The G6DH features a 3.3L displacement, six-cylinder V6
configuration, DOHC 24-valve design, GDI fuel system and Dual VVT.
The supplied specifications identify the engine block casting and
manufacturer code as G6DH.
Each engine is completely disassembled, thoroughly cleaned, inspected,
precision machined and reassembled. Required components are replaced
during the remanufacturing process, while the completed engine is
SIM tested to help verify compression, oil-system pressure,
cooling-system pressure and overall build quality.

Professional G6DH Engine Remanufacturing Process
A quality Hyundai G6DH remanufactured engine goes
through a structured rebuilding process. The engine is not simply
cleaned and resold. Components are processed through cleaning,
inspection, machining, assembly and testing stages.
1. Complete Disassembly and Deep Cleaning
The engine is completely disassembled before remanufacturing begins.
Components are thoroughly cleaned to remove accumulated oil, carbon,
dirt and other contaminants. Aluminum components are thermally
cleaned where applicable.
2. Detailed Component Inspection
Components are visually inspected for wear, damage and other
conditions that could affect serviceability. Magnaflux testing is
used on appropriate metal components to help identify microscopic
cracks and fissures.
3. Precision Machining and New Parts
Required machining operations are performed to restore critical
engine surfaces and dimensions. Deck surfaces are CNC machined,
while required replacement components are installed during assembly.
Depending on component condition and application requirements, new
components may include bearings, pistons, piston rings, lifters,
oil pump, gaskets, Viton valve seals, freeze plugs, galley plugs
and timing components.
4. Final Assembly and SIM Testing
Following final assembly, the engine is SIM tested. The cooling and
oil systems are pressurized and the crankshaft is spun at high RPM
to help verify compression, oil pressure, cooling-system pressure
and overall build quality.
