AIR FILTER KIT AND NVLD REPLACEMENT
(SERVICE CAMPAIGN T4W)
 IMPORTANT
*** Dealer Stock and Retail Vehicles ***
Dealers must perform this Service Campaign whenever an affected vehicle is in the shop for any
maintenance or repair.
When a vehicle arrives at the Service Department, access Hyundai Motor America's Vehicle
Information Screen (VIS) via WEBDCS to identify open Campaigns.
Description: Certain 2016-2019 Sonata Hybrid (LF HEV) may experience check engine light
illumination with DTC P0456 - Evaporative System (EVAP) - Very Small Leak stored.
These conditions primarily occur in the California coastal areas that are subject to marine layer cloud
cover. Salt particulate deposit can form inside the Natural Vacuum Leak Detection (NVLD) sensor
which may cause intermittent operation prompting the DTC P0456 and check engine light.
This bulletin provides the procedure to install a new Air Filter Kit with an updated filter to help
prevent entry of the salt particulates.
In addition, replace NVLD sensor if DTC P0456 found stored in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
