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

It's a type of car problem that’s not hard to notice. 2001 Hyundai Tiburon transmission problems could include shifting delays, grinding or jumping during acceleration, the car shaking on the road, or whistling noises or a burning smell coming from beneath the hood. Let Hyundai Tiburon transmission problems linger and you could see your fuel economy decrease or discover that your Tiburon’s not even driveable.

2001 Hyundai Tiburon Questions & Answers

  • 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.
  • What can I tow in a Hyundai? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • Does my Tiburon's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2001 Tiburon’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Hyundai. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Hyundai Tiburon? Yes. Hyundai Tiburon transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
