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

What triggers the malfunction indicator light (MIL) in a Tucson?

If your Tucson 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 Tucson’s malfunction warning light at home?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Tucson’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my Tucson?

Does my Tucson transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2009 Hyundai Tucson

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Tucson's engine to its wheels. It runs the full length of your Hyundai, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your Tucson and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. Care for your 2009 Hyundai Tucson to maintain its performance power. You can minimize repairs by following Hyundai's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.
