* "Non-interference" isn't a precise term: It generally means the valves and pistons won't collide if the timing belt breaks. However, even engines with a non-interference design might have components that could get damaged.
* Engine variations: Hyundai has produced various 2.7L V6 engines over the years, and they could have different designs. Some might be non-interference, while others might be interference.
To find out for sure, you need to:
1. Identify the specific engine code: This is usually found on the engine itself or in your vehicle's documentation.
2. Research the specific engine: Look for information online (e.g., engine manuals, forums, or automotive websites) about the specific engine code.
Important Note: Even if an engine is considered non-interference, a broken timing belt can still cause significant damage to the engine. It's crucial to follow the recommended maintenance schedule for timing belt replacement to prevent this from happening.
