2005 Hyundai Elantra Logo
Lisa Gualtieri Posted on Apr 10, 2013

I have a 2005 Hyundai Elantra that I just took to a mechanic for repairs related to my transmission. I was told that my solenoid was bad and needed replaced. They also flushed and replaced my transmis

If I keep the car in 2nd it drives just fine up to about 30mph. If I put it in drive it struggles past about 20mph and the engine revs up really really high (5000rmp...I think it would go higher if I let it but I didnt wanna do that and mess everything up further). Just as an aside, since the 1 code Im getting now is just a generic "you have a problem with your transmission" code, shouldnt the repair be covered under some type of guarantee?

What problem was the trans having before they worked on it? How many miles were on the trans, do u know if the trans had ever been serviced before? Was it a full trans fluid flush or just the filter and a few quarts? Before a correct answer can be givin by anyone, this info is needed. For example if the trans has high mileage and has never been serviced they should of only changed the filter plus 4 5 quarts to fill it up, if they did a full trans flush under those conditions they ruined it

SOURCE: CAR JERKING AROUND 30,000 MILES

We have a 2007 Elantra company car with the same trouble jerking around 35-40. Went to dealer many times they said change Trans fluid it had 33k miles. Cost us $170. Did not fix it. Then they said it would need a new trans would not give back money for trans service. They put new trans in under warranty picked up car was still the same went back more times they said #3 spark plug was bad this I was told twice. I had had it with the dealer ship and demanded they find the trouble here it was a bad spark plug wire on #3 they replaced all the wires and #3 spark plug for the 3rd time and problem went a way. This dealer ship change a transmission for spark plug wirre i hope your dealership is better then this one

SOURCE: I have a 2006 Hyundai Elantra. At 84,000km, it

you should have took it back first time ,the fault is to do with the control unit inside the gearbox ,its electrically operated and the manufacturer does not sell spares for the internals of an auto box ,so its an exchange gearbox complete ,a right rip off as far as i am concerned ,take it to another dealer out of town and dont tell them about changing the oil,

I have an 2008 Hyundai elantra and get code 700& 760 what that mean?

Code 700 is a generic code that means a problem has occured with the transmission control module, and code 760 is for a shift solenoid failure.
The shop would use a repair manual to test the circuit for the shift solenoid. If the solenoid is faulty, it would need to be replaced and the module reset.

My 2004 Hyundai Elantra surges and jumps gears

You got ripped off by the mechanic. A good mechanic can pinpoint the problem by using a scan tool. Take vehicle to autozone or similar and have it scanned for codes this will give you a idea what is wrong. I believe the problem is exhaust related because of the blinking light.

When I turn on the car and start driving it will

NEED check engine light code. just shooting in the dark, but it could be your throttle position sensor or the gear indicator (some times called neutral safety switch). to try and reset it (works on some models) when its doing this (giving you grief). pull over to the side of the road when safe and shut off the car (put in park) then press the accelerator all the way to the floor for 30 seconds. then start the car (take foot off of accelerator first) might cure the problem. engine error code would be most helpfull

Axle leak

This sounds like it could be either the C/V (constant velocity) joint boot cracked and oozing grease, or the axle seal on the transmission could be damaged. If just for peace of mind, have this checked out as soon as possible. These are not costly repairs, now, but if delayed they could be VERY costly. Anything transmission related should be checked ASAP.
