Hyundai H100 Crankshafts
Crankshafts for the Hyundai H100 — new, used and aftermarket stock, quoted once we know which H100 you are running
What Are Hyundai H100 Crankshafts?
The crankshaft converts piston motion into rotation — it's the central rotating shaft of every Hyundai engine from the 1.2 Kappa to the 2.0 CRDi. The crank sensor on the snout or bellhousing feeds rpm and position data to the ECU; without it the engine won't start.
Signs You Need New Crankshafts
Getting the right crankshafts for your H100 first time
H100 owners are usually surprised by how much turns on the generation code — Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie all sold here.Dropside, tipper and canopy conversions mean the load body is frequently not standard, so load-bed and rear-body parts have to be matched to the conversion rather than to the model.
Engine families fitted to the SA-market H100:
Hyundai used several engine families in parallel rather than in sequence, so two cars of the same model year can carry completely different internals. The engine code stamped on the block is what a parts desk works from, not the badge on the boot.
Send us the engine code off the block or VIN plate, and whether the car is petrol or CRDi diesel with your enquiry and we will confirm the correct crankshafts against your car before anything is dispatched.
In South Africa the H100 is mostly small-business transport that is loaded to its limit daily, which is why clutch, driveline and front-suspension parts dominate demand rather than trim or electronics. That is the wear pattern we stock and source against.
Hyundai H100 Crankshafts FAQs
Will crankshafts from another H100 fit mine?
Not automatically. The H100 sold in South Africa as Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie, and dropside, tipper and canopy conversions mean the load body is frequently not standard, so load-bed and rear-body parts have to be matched to the conversion rather than to the model. Send us the generation code off your VIN plate and we will confirm it either way before anything is dispatched.
What should I send you when asking about H100 crankshafts?
The VIN is the single most useful thing — a photo of the plate is fine. Failing that, the generation code and the engine code off the block. The H100 ran as Porter, Porter II and the H100 bakkie, so the generation is what narrows the search.
Do you mean the crankshaft or the crank sensor?
This is worth settling first, because the two jobs are not remotely comparable. The sensor is a bolt-on part that ages and corrodes; SA retail runs roughly R65 to R550 through our supplier network. The crankshaft itself is an engine-out rebuild. People search for one and need the other more often than you would think.
What does a failing crank sensor do?
The engine cranks but will not start when hot, then fires up again once it has cooled — that hot-stall-then-restart pattern is close to diagnostic on its own. Add random stalling, intermittent misfires and codes P0335 or P0336. On Getz and i20 1.4 CRDi cars, corrosion at the sensor plug is a common cause.
Can I keep driving with a faulty crank sensor?
Not with any confidence — the ECU needs crank position to fire the injectors and ignition, so the engine can cut at any moment. That is a stranding rather than a limp home. Get it done before it picks its own time and place.
What does a crank sensor cost in South Africa?
SA retail runs roughly R65 to R550 depending on model and brand, confirmed across our supplier network, and labour is usually under an hour. Send your VIN rather than the model name — sensor fitment follows the engine family, and a wrong-part return is the most common avoidable delay we see.
What actually kills a crankshaft?
Very little, directly. The crank is one of the toughest components in the engine, so damage to it is nearly always downstream of something else — oil starvation, overheating, or a rod bearing that let go first. If the crank is genuinely damaged, the engine has usually already made the decision for you.
