OE 94435-144 — Counter Gear for Hyundai / Kia

Treat it as a wear item: inspect every 20,000-30,000 km and replace at the first sign of leakage, noise or performance loss. Real service life swings widely with climate, road surface and duty cycle, so mileage on its own is a weak indicator.

Start from the code cast or printed on the part you are removing — that is the authoritative source. If it is illegible, use the Applications table on the closest transmission & drivetrain reference and narrow by build year. Send photos and we will cross-check the number for you.

Position depends on the platform. On most Hyundai / Kia applications the counter gear sits on the transmission & drivetrain assembly and can be reached from the engine bay or the underbody without removing the dashboard. Torque figures and disassembly order are given in the workshop manual for each model.

Stock references leave Guangzhou within 7 working days. If 94435-144 needs a production run, allow 25-35 days depending on quantity and surface treatment. The schedule is confirmed in writing when the order is placed.

A supersession happens when the maker revises a counter gear and issues a new tail number. The revision normally changes a small physical detail rather than the fit. Where we know a supersession chain for 94435-144 we list the current reference; ask our desk for written confirmation before a large order.

Incoming batches pass a dimensional check, a material look-up against the transmission & drivetrain specification, and a visual inspection for finish defects. Critical dimensions are measured per carton and the photographs are archived against the order number.
