Questions About 2008 Hyundai Tiburon’s Transmission

  • What happens if I "ride" my Hyundai's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Hyundai? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, 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? Caring for your Hyundai Tiburon’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to 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.

  • Can I drive my Hyundai Tiburon with a transmission fluid leak? You should avoid driving with a transmission fluid leak.
