Detailed Description

Mahle HS54741A is an OEM-standard sealing kit for engine top-end service. The set is engineered around multi-layer steel construction where high clamping force and heat resistance matter most, while the molded rubber intake manifold gasket addresses intake sealing needs in the same repair. This part cross-references FEL-PRO HS 26333 PT-1 for the same application. It is a direct fit for select 2009-2010 Hyundai Sonata and Kia Forte, Forte Koup, Optima, and Rondo applications, including the listed 2010 Kia Optima and Rondo notes for bolt replacement recommendations and production cutoff details. Use HS54741A when servicing a Hyundai Sonata or Kia Optima engine that requires a complete head gasket sealing solution.

Common Repair Uses

• Head gasket leakage at the cylinder head sealing surface
• Exhaust manifold sealing issues during engine repair
• Intake manifold sealing concerns after teardown
• Top-end reseal work on Hyundai and Kia engines
• Service replacement where torque-to-yield fasteners are specified

Installation Notes

Confirm engine code and production date before installation, especially on 2010 Kia Optima and Rondo applications with the listed cutoff note. Cylinder head bolts are not included, and replacement is recommended where torque-to-yield fasteners are used. Follow the manufacturer’s torque sequence and fastener procedure exactly to protect the sealing surfaces and achieve proper clamp load.
