Car Forum / Hyundai Cars / February 2005New Elantra
Traded in 2000 Elantra and bought a new 2005 Elantra. Larger tire size is better in new one. The 02 trans., had drive, 1, 2, reverse. 05 has drive 1,2,3,reverse. They said the transmission has been upgraded since 02. Any input? It's a completely different transmission. In fact, it's the same transmission (less trivial differences such as final drive ratio) as the 1999 and newer Sonatas. It seems to experience far fewer problems than the older transmission, of which I have a relatively low opinion. I have a 2003 Elantra with 20K on it and it is smooth! But I think Hyundaitech will agree with me that it is important to flush the tranny at the recommended intervals in my case 30K miles. stan@hirise.com > It's a completely different transmission.

Most of the trannies I've seen have rather ugly looking fluid by then. |
