Hyundai ix35 Spares

The Hyundai ix35 (LM platform, 2009-2015) was sold in SA as the Tucson replacement of its era and built up huge volume on local roads. It uses the Theta II 2.0 petrol or the 2.0 CRDi diesel, paired with a 6-speed auto or manual. We carry Theta II engines, CRDi diesel engines, 6-speed automatics, transfer cases for the AWD variant, headlights and front body panels.

Hyundai ix35 Spares — What We Stock

Hyundai ix35 spares are available from our Lenasia South yard across the full LM-platform range (2009-2015). In South Africa this model kept its ix35 name rather than reverting to Tucson — but what we list as an ix35 spare is mechanically identical to a 2010-2014 global Tucson. Cross-fitment between the two is wide, which helps keep pricing competitive and stock available. We typically carry multiple donor ix35 units on the yard, stripped carefully so bodywork and electronics stay intact. Send your VIN for an immediate parts confirmation.

Demand after the model went out of production has remained strong — there is a deep parc of ix35s on local roads and parts are priced fairly because donor supply is good. Two engines drive almost all enquiries: the G4KD 2.0 Theta II petrol (the volume unit, paired with the A6MF1 6-speed auto or M6CF1 manual) and the D4HA 2.0 CRDi diesel (the fleet favourite, variable-geometry turbo, solid torque). Transfer cases, headlights and complete front-end sections are also consistent calls.

Engines and gearboxes — G4KD Theta II and D4HA CRDi

Two engines do almost all the work on the ix35. The G4KD 2.0 Theta II is the volume petrol unit — a multi-port-injected 2.0 litre that produces around 122 kW and gets along well with the 6-speed A6MF1 automatic or the M6CF1 manual. The D4HA 2.0 CRDi is the workhorse diesel — common-rail, variable-geometry turbo, roughly 135 kW — and it is the engine fleet buyers ask about most often. A lower-volume G4NC 2.0 Nu was offered in some markets. Common faults across both engines follow standard CRDi territory: injector wear (test before replacing), turbo actuator failure, and on the petrol G4KD, occasional timing chain rattle on high-kilometre units. Our Hyundai engine catalogue lists current ix35-fit stock with mileage and warranty terms.

Transmission-wise the A6MF1 6-speed automatic is the volume box, and we carry both rebuilt and inspected used units. The transfer case for AWD models is a regular request — it is a Magna electronic-coupling unit, not a traditional 4WD setup, and replacement is usually cheaper than a full rebuild. Manual 6-speed boxes are mechanically simple and very rarely fail outside of clutch wear; we stock clutch kits, flywheels and slave cylinders. The complete transmission range sits on our used Hyundai gearbox page.

For bodywork, the ix35 shares almost everything with the LM-generation Tucson — front bumpers, fenders, doors, tailgates, mirrors, headlights, tail lights are all interchangeable. Inside the cabin the dashboard, seats and trim are also LM-shared. The most-requested body items in our experience are the front bumper (parking-lot damage is endemic), headlight assemblies (the projector units yellow with age and the headlight washer covers regularly go walkabout), the side mirror housings, and the tailgate. Sun-bleached interior trim — particularly the dashboard top — is a separate problem and well worth replacing with a yard-sourced clean unit if your interior is starting to crack.

Pricing on the ix35 is sensible. Theta II 2.0 used engines run at roughly half the cost of a new crate unit and we back them with a clear warranty on the rotating assembly. CRDi diesel pricing is driven mostly by injector condition and turbo health, both of which we test before any engine leaves the yard. Body panels are reasonably priced because the Tucson LM shares the same parts — there is no scarcity penalty.

Delivery and quoting work the same as for any other model in our range. Lenasia South is centrally positioned in southern Gauteng, courier rates to Joburg or Pretoria are minimal, and we deliver nationwide to Cape Town, Durban, PE, Bloemfontein, East London and George within three to five working days. Send us your VIN, the part you need and any photos of the damaged unit — we will come back with confirmed stock, price and warranty terms inside the same business day in most cases.
