I bought a 2000 Hyundai sonata 2.5 6 cyl. automatic. Been driving it for a week, no problems. Today it slammed very hard into 2nd or 3rd gear and the check oil light came on. would'nt shift out of 1st gear. Fluid level is full. Turned car off for about 10 min, light went out and started shifting OK. Help!!!!!!!!

The input and output transmission sensors may be bad. My car had this malfunction. I replaced the sensors and have had no more problems.

My car stay only on 3rd gear never shift sonata 2000

Assuming you have an automatic transmission....Sounds like you probably have some internal damage. Take it to a reputable transmission shop and have it diagnosed.

I have a 2000 metro the trans shifts hard when you first start up from 2nd to 3rd. But after that it seams not to shift down from 3rd no matter how many times you spot and go again.

Before guessing at transmission problems, check the fluid level (car warmed up, engine running in Park on level ground) and have the PCM scanned for trouble codes FIRST.
Shift suddenly become very hard. When going from park to either reverse or drive it slams into gear. 1-2 and 2-3 shifts are also harsh. All gears seems to work. Problem may be intermittent: Check TPS for smooth electrical response. If the response is jumpy or erratic at all, replace TPS.
Thank you for using fixya and keep us posted.

3rd gear help please!

I have a 2002 Hyundai Sonata and I had the same problem. But mine would always shift into 3rd gear and STAY there until I turned the car off. I took it to a Hyundai dealer and he had to rewire a speed sensor on top of the transmission. Apparently a little animal got up in that tight little spot and gnawed on my sensor wires. The car has run fine since. To make a long story short, it might be your speed sensor on your transmission.
