Can Hyundai service save me money?

Yes, sometimes it can. First, servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. It can also somewhat reduce tire wear.

What are signs my Hyundai drivetrain is damaged?

Noises toward the back of your Hyundai Tiburon, leaking fluid, trouble turning — these could all be signs of drivetrain damage you want to address. Take action before something more severe happens.

How often should I come in for Hyundai Tiburon differential service?

We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.

Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my Tiburon?

If your Tiburon has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

Can you reset your Tiburon’s malfunction warning light at home?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Tiburon's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Tiburon.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Tiburon?

Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Tiburon. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Tiburon.

Does my Tiburon transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Tiburon’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Tiburon forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

All About 2008 Hyundai Tiburon Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Tiburon's engine to its wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s one of your Tiburon’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2008 Hyundai Tiburon, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Hyundai's recommendations.

When to Get Hyundai Tiburon Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 2008 Hyundai Tiburon drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Hyundai could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice clunks when shifting, vibration as your vehicle accelerates, resistance when turning, or heavy vibrations in your floorboards.

So much depends on the climate and your driving style. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Hyundai Tiburon.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2008 Hyundai Tiburon? Some smaller differential fixes, like seal or gasket replacement, are usually pretty affordable.
