What’s the Importance of Your 2001 Elantra’s Transmission?

The transmission delivers power from the engine to the wheels so that you can drive on your terms. Because your transmission is responsible for converting the right amount of power into the right amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your Elantra’s performance. They're often easy to notice. Hyundai Elantra transmission problems can present themselves as shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. If you ignore Hyundai Elantra transmission issues you could see your fuel economy decrease or discover that your Elantra’s not even driveable.

Questions About 2001 Hyundai Elantra’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Hyundai's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Hyundai? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small it is. Defying your Elantra towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Elantra's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Hyundai Elantra’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Hyundai's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Hyundai Elantra? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Hyundai Elantra, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
  • Who fixes Hyundai Elantra transmission leaks? When your Elantra transmission is acting up, Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to help. Book an appointment today for transmission system diagnostics and repairs.
  • Can I still drive my Hyundai Elantra if it has a transmission fluid leak? It’s not advisable to drive your Elantra if it’s leaking transmission fluid. Your transmission system needs transmission fluid to function properly, and a leak can lead to significant problems, such as overheating or reduced performance. You might even experience transmission failure.
