Questions About 1997 Hyundai Tiburon’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Hyundai's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Hyundai Tiburon? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Tiburon’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Tiburon is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • How often does my Tiburon transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1997 Tiburon’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system 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 Tiburon? Yes. Hyundai Tiburon transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.

Your transmission system relies on transmission fluid to operate properly, and a leak may decrease performance, cause your Tiburon to overheat, or even lead to transmission failure.
