OE 45482-4G500 — Balance Piston Clutch for Hyundai

Aftermarket balance piston clutch comes from tooling houses that hold the original drawings or licensed equivalents. KingMay sources from vetted factories and inspects each batch; the manufacturer name is available on request where your market requires origin documentation.

For a short distance at reduced load, usually yes — but the risk compounds. A degraded balance piston clutch transfers stress to neighbouring components, so a small repair can grow into a full transmission & drivetrain rebuild. Book the replacement once the symptom is repeatable.

Build-year coverage is listed row by row in the Applications table above. Where several generations share one number, the newer rows usually carry a revised suffix — compare the last four characters before buying, since a suffix change often means a different connector or bracket.

Four variables explain most of the spread: material grade, whether the goods are new production or clearance stock, packing format, and whether the quote is ex-works or landed. Ask for the material certificate alongside the price — that is what makes a comparison like-for-like.

Report it with the order number and packing-list line plus photographs. Because every carton is photographed before loading, we can trace the batch immediately and settle the claim against the inspection record instead of arguing from memory.

A supersession happens when the maker revises a balance piston clutch and issues a new tail number. The revision normally changes a small physical detail rather than the fit.
