You should also throw in a Kia Sorento label for your video. Looked all over for a tranny change for my Sorento and most of them were TERRIBLE. Your video is 1. Well lit so we can actually SEE what you're talking about. 2, You use good camera angles. 3, You mention bolt sizes. 4, The audio is balanced and we can hear you well. 5, You're quick and to the point. GREAT JOB MAN!!
From Service Manual 20. Start the engine and allow the engine and transmission to reach operating temperature. 21. Shift the transmission through from park ”P” to drive “D” several times. 22. Remove the oil level plug from the side pan - the oil should flow out in a thin steady stream. 23. If the fluid flow is incorrect, add an additional 1/2-quart through the banjo bolt hole until the oil flows out in a thin, steady stream. 24. If the fluid flows out in a large stream, allow the excess to drain until the flow is a thin steady stream.
A few very important step you are missing in the end. When pouring in the new fluid and you see it start to come out the level hole you should then cap the level hole. Next add a little more fluid with the level cap on, about 1/4 quart. Then close the fill hole and start the engine, go through each gear slowly...about 3 times. Then go for a ride for 10 min and get the engine fully up to operating temperature. Now go back home and park on level ground. Finally, leave the truck running and remove the level side cap. Examine the flow rate of the fluid exiting the level hole. When it gets to a thin consistent stream existing then put the cap back on. Now the transmission fluid level is correct!
Good video. I don't understand why these car manufacturers would not put a transmission dip stick on these cars. But now I know how to change it on my 2018 Santa Fe. Cheers.
This was helpful. I have a 2010 Santa Fe with 150,000 mi on it. After some repeated work on it by the garage, it appears to be leaking transmission fluid again. Are the locations that you've identified here essentially the same on the 2010? Also, if the transmission fluid is low does the engine light come on? Recently, in the last 200 miles, it lights and stays illuminated.
Thanks for the video! Just changed the ATF on my 2014 Santa Fe Sport 2.4L for first time. Vehicle has 95K and ATF was brown but still drove well after change. 1. Jacked front end up and removed plastic under cover. 2. Checked I could loosen eye bolt and level plug. 3. Removed drain plug and drained ATF. 4. Lowered front end back to ground and more ATF drained. Got exactly 4 quarts of ATF fluid. 5. Put drain bolt back in. 6. Poured 4.5 qts of Valvoline Maxlife ATF in eye bolt (slowly - it spills out bottom easily). 7. Screwed eye bolt back in. 8. Turned car on and went through gears a few times. 9. Checked the oil flow by removing level plug. Let it flow until steady slow stream. 10. Put level plug back in.

FYI, I just did this on my 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe V6 AWD. It was the same as this video. I had to take the car to a Lift to get the lower plastic panel removed. No way to get it off by jacking the car up. With the lower engine cover removed, the Trans oil change only took a few minutes. I'm not putting that cover back on! 62K miles and the trans oil looked really bad. I'm going to drive it to engine oil change time (+1500 mi) and then do the trans again. Used just short of 4 quarts. Used Valvoline ATP Max Life Full Synthetic in mine as it requires Dextron VI. Older cars - Don't use this fluid! Cost me $13 vs shop $160! Edit: I found that when refilling it took about 10 minutes for the fluid to get to the correct level. Don't rush it. Last time I didn't give it that much time to flow out so the tranni was a bit overfilled. It was shifting harder than it should have. I pull a boat with my V6 santa fe and the trani fluid seems to get dirty fast. I now drain and fill every 7000 miles.
always level check with the engine running and in that temp range 50-60 C (122- 140F) to be accurate, level ground or hoist. This is the correct way, don't be fooled into doing it with the engine off, you will end up with a low level which you won't know about. Even with cars with transmission dipsticks you always check the level with the engine running.
Good video thank you. People should know that draining the transmission only gets out about half of the fluid that is actually in there. The transmission assembly holds almost 8 liters, about 4 liters came out when I drained mine, the torque converter alone holds quite a lot of fluid. With the extra effort outlined below you can replace all of the fluid. The transmission oil cooler is attached to the front of the transmission just above the transmission oil level check plug. Remove the oil line identified with red paint that goes up to the transmission. It was on the right hand side of mine. Attach some 3/8 tubing where the rubber oil line came off; put the tubing into an empty container. I used some empty 2 liter pop bottles so that I could quickly judge how much fluid was coming out. I bought 10 L of the Maxlife fluid. Drain the old fluid as per this video and replace the oil plug, replace the oil inspection plug. Put at least 4 L of new fluid in the transmission, don't exceed 5 L. Have an assistant start the engine and run the gear selector through the gear positions as you watch the fluid coming out. Stop the engine when 2 liters come out, regardless of what gear the engine transmission might be in. Add two more liters of new fluid to the transmission and do this again. You have now pumped out the old fluid from the torque converter and valve body. Please note that about a cup of old fluid will come out of the disconnected rubber oil line as well so be prepared to catch it too. My Santa Fe pumped out about a liter every 6 seconds. Finish up by driving the car for about 10 minutes and then checking the oil level, note that the oil level must be checked with the engine running. Have your assistant read these instructions too before you start so that they know what is happening and are ready. You do need a competent assistant to do this. I did it myself by counting off the seconds, but that is a bit risky.
Just a word of interest..just had my 2011 sonata trans fluid changed.. not myself.. using a transfer changer.. 17 qts.. !!! To change all the fluids.. FYI..
You have to STOP the engine to drain and fill. Measure what you drained, fill the same amount. Then start the engine, cycle through the gears, about 5 seconds in each gear. Check the ATF level when the temp reaches to 120-140 degrees with engine running, not full operating temp(which is about 185F)
Great video Vlad. I followed your video tutorial this morning and completed the job on my '13 Santa Fe Sport Turbo in about 45 minutes start to finish. Probably saved myself a couple hundred $$ plus I know that it was done right and that all of the bolts are replaced in the under-body cover.
The undercover bolts (machine screws actually, I guess) will give an OCD person fits unless they take notes before removing and it can be confusing working on your back. The 10 mm bolts are of two types, with all but two being black and the other two being silver, and shorter. I didn't take note of where the silver ones were, so just guessed. There is a plastic support arm that swings from a rear pivot, too. The shield is held to this with another 5 connectors. From rear to front: 10 mm bolt, screw, 10 mm bolt, screw, and plastic rivet of the center Phillips head type. After completing this, I had 1 10 mm bolt left over, which is why I am watching this video.
Excellent video! Very nut & bolt type, thank you very much for showing... I don’t find many clear explanation like this video does on this new type non dipstick transmission change. You make it simple, compared to Toyota non dipstick automatic tranny oil change, Toyota used straw attached to drain bolt to measure oil level, to me its pain in the butt, way more complicated than Kia/Hyundai. Thanks
hi, vlad, i'm glad to see your video, i have a santa fe 2.2 diesel, probably with the same 6 speed auto, I wounder how many quarters of oil did you poured? because my manual said it use almost 8 quarters.
No filter to change as routine maintenance. Just like a Honda. I change my fluid every two years along with the brake fluid and antifreeze. Not that expensive and keeps the car running smooth. Have not run the car much so the miles are really low so a bit overkill perhaps.
I have a 2017 Sedona bought used with 17k miles and the procedure is exactly the same. I know many have used Maxlife with great success, I'm just a bit leery to use due to warranty issues. Bought 4 qrts of Type 4 from the dealership for $7.39 per qrt from their bulk bin. Being you use ML and it's so cheap I'd recommend doing a D/R every 10 - 12k miles. Best trans insurance. We're on our 4th Hyundai/Kia and have done D/R once per year and never had any trans issues.
Mitch, how do you ensure the proper level of fluid? Do you just wait that extra fluid stop flowing out and turn into drips from the side level hole?Thanks.
Thank you! I had mine serviced, but always suspicious about how they did it. I'm used to the old Chevy vehicles and how they are changed with a dipstick hole to pour it in and fluid filter by removing the pan.
The transmission fluid plug on my 2013 Santa Fe wasn't a 24 mm, I used a 15/16 and it fit perfectly. I'm not sure exactly what that is in millimeters, but it isn't 24, that's for sure, is way less
good job, one question though. The original ATF in those transmissions is not synthetic, you used full synthetic to mix with it so now its neither. No issues?
I read yesterday that there is no problems mixing the two. I'm going to use fully synthetic on my ix35 change then do it again a few weeks later. The important thing is to get fluid that is compatible with Hyundai/Kia. SP4.
Great informative video! Thanks for posting. Planning to do this on my 2020 tucson and realize it was a sealed type! That made me scratch my head for a sec Haha
If you measure how much of the old oil came out, that's the same amount you put back in,no need to remove level plug and waste fluid and time. Wasted my time not knowing how much oil you put out of the one gallon container
I don't think so. The level is determined by how much can be put in before flowing out the side drain hole. Kinda dumb not to just put a dipstick but that's hyundai
mohammad safaei you are an idiot if you will run your engine in idle when you put new oil. Use your common sense, you dropped 3-4 quarts of oil in transmission then why would you still run the engine in idle? Don"t tell me when you do engine oil change you gonna run it also on idle.
If you do a drain and fill do you need to take off the overflow plastic bolt? I mean if let's say 4 qts comes out and you put 4 qts back in? It is there more to it than I'm thinking?
I believe this is wrong. you gotta fill the car with 4 qts run the car and the oil get hot. while the car is running you open the side oil level cap and let the excess come out. from what I have measured it takes exactly 4qts for fluid change.
You start the engine and let it come to operating temp, then shift between park and drive several times. This is because there is still quite a bit of fluid left in the transmission, specifically the torque converter. By doing this, the new fluid flows through the transmission mixing with some old fluid. The level is then checked again because it could quite possibly be low after shifting. Draining the trans does not get all of the old fluid but getting new fluid into the trans is very good (There is no such this as sealed "lifetime" transmissions). As Vlad mentioned if this is part of your regular maintenance as he does, the fluid stays "fresh" .
I just changed my 2013 Hyundai Tucson transmission fluid using these same instructions. The fill nut is located under the airbox, just like the Sante Fe. Everything else was the same. Since you only drain about half the fluid, I've read that you should do this procedure twice with about a week in between. Seems intuitive, since this procedure is a fluid change and not a flush. Also, there is no filter to change as the internal filter is not serviceable unless you're doing a removal of the unit and rebuild.
Appreciate the video...wish I watched the service guy change my fluid to see if all steps taken as my transmission completely failed within one month on my Santa Fe 2011 V6. I never had any issues before the fluid change. Any idea why this failure occurred? Was First time having fluid change at 150,000 km
Well I think you waited too long to do a transmission fluid change. Also the dealership likely did a "flush" instead of what you just watched which is a drain and refill. Flush are controversial if you search around
Some people like to add the same amount that comes out. Assuming that the level is now correct, you could drain and refill whatever amount came out. Why don't you use the level hole?
Hi Vlad, I tried to fill the transmission fluid on my 2013 Santa Fe Sport but it just overflowed. The filler hole is blocked, will the filler hole open if you start the engine?
Hello Vlad, just wondering, what is the update of your Santa Fe? Any difference? You should upload a new video while driving as well, of how the gears change. I see that when my Santa Fe goes to the 3rd gear, feels like hard and change right away to the 4th gear.
Appreciate the video...wish I watched the service guy change my fluid to see if all steps taken as my transmission completely failed within one month on my Santa Fe 2011 V6. I never had any issues before the fluid change. Any idea why this failure occurred?
@@soniavinodolac3251 Yes, If he did a flush of the tranny, he used a pressurized machine in shop and it tends to push fine particles through the system and clog the little trails that transmissions use. Assuming the 2011 year you mentioned, I would put my money on that scenario. In the future get a private mechanic you trust and ask for a drop fill method, all you are doing is removing about 40%, wait 6 months and do it again. I did this on my 2008 with 110miles and used walmart ATF (red bottle marked ATF) Still shifts great after 13 years. Sorry for your loss.
Fantastic Vlad and thank you for doing this how to video. I cannot find tutorial for my Kia Sedona (A/T fluid change) and I found your video by chance. It looks similar to Sedona so I'm happy that I can now change the fluid without taking it to the dealership. The Chilton repair manual is useless for newb like me because it identified the Banjo filler cap and Level check plug but there were no photos so I just wasted my hard-earned $$$. Thanks again.
This guy did a good video. But you should never put your nuts and bolts in the gravel put them in the gravel. Put them in a container such as a coffee can. Not to be a smart-ass
I always recommend taking your fill plug out first.and in this case your level indicator as well. Make sure you can refill whatever you drain. Start with the fill plug and level indicator then you drain pug. It is very important to do it in that sequence. This guy did a great video I'm sure help others.
Are you sure about this ? I was thinking that you only check level plug once ATF is at operating temp and you shifted all gear positions few times.
It is good practice to always remove the fill plug first, same for transfer cases, and differentials.
You should also throw in a Kia Sorento label for your video. Looked all over for a tranny change for my Sorento and most of them were TERRIBLE. Your video is 1. Well lit so we can actually SEE what you're talking about. 2, You use good camera angles. 3, You mention bolt sizes. 4, The audio is balanced and we can hear you well. 5, You're quick and to the point.

What about the transmission filter?
Dave D Does this procedure apply to a 2018? Thx
@@RichieRich845 its inside the transmission.
Naivd question to Dave D. Is the engine turned off when you remove the oil level plug?

Thank you for the additional information. It does make sense. My question now is, does this thing have a filter? Does it need changing?
I forgot this step and underfilled my trans. Very important
During machine running idle for level checking, gear on N or P?
@@rudywawrinka8926 that is the same both would be fine
Is that what the plastic bolt is? Is that the level for the trans?
I've lucked out. My driveway is slanted down, so when I drive up on those metal ramps, my Elantra is perfectly level. Good video.
optionally just measure what comes out and put the exact same amount back in (providing there is no signs of leakage)
That's what I do. To me it's more accurate than using the oil level plug as far as knowing to the ML/OZ exactly how much came out and went back in.
thanks.
just for you to know - you don't need to tighten the plastic philips clips, you just press them in.

On another video they said the torque spec for the drain bolt is 32 pounds-feet.
Will the transmission work if the oil is not fully filled? Im having problems that it will not shift properly its automatic.
If the level is off, you will have issues with shifting and possibly engagement.

This guy is awesome.! Helped me so much and was very accurate. Thank you!
Marc Winkler you got it

Excelente.!!
Bravo pour ce tuto.
The transmission fluid plug on my 2013 Santa Fe wasn't a 24 mm, I used a 15/16 and it fit perfectly. I'm not sure exactly what that is in millimeters, but it isn't 24, that's for sure, is way less
Malleus Maleficarum with 25.4 millimeters equalling an inch, a 15/16 is almost exactly a 24mm. Either works.
@@TheSmiffyJP 15/16=24mm according to the conversion table and doing the math
Can somebody please mention how much liters it takes for Hyundai Santa fe 2014 4WD?
4 liters for GCC Model
That drained fluid looks pretty good to me?
good job, one question though. The original ATF in those transmissions is not synthetic, you used full synthetic to mix with it so now its neither. No issues?
I read yesterday that there is no problems mixing the two. I'm going to use fully synthetic on my ix35 change then do it again a few weeks later. The important thing is to get fluid that is compatible with Hyundai/Kia. SP4.
Great informative video! Thanks for posting. Planning to do this on my 2020 tucson and realize it was a sealed type! That made me scratch my head for a sec Haha
Nice well donde
Thanks so much man for that video
Is it the same procedure for a santa fe 2014 sport 2.0l turbo AWD???
Yes
Thanks man, very helpful
🎉
Great.. expert
.i have a quest,
How yo change the fluid transmission for hyunday H 1 2010 diesel.? Plz inform.thx..
You know that measuring what came out is a good idea. and you didn't clean off the magnet.
There is no magnet.
will this also be the same process for the AWD 2.0T?
No. AWD is a different procedure. I would look for another video and see how it's done on exactly that model.
Same procedure..
How to change metic oil filter
Thanks for video.
If you measure how much of the old oil came out, that's the same amount you put back in,no need to remove level plug and waste fluid and time. Wasted my time not knowing how much oil you put out of the one gallon container
Yeah, then if your fluid is low beforehand you're putting in new fluid at a low level 🤦🏼
@@coreykarr1128 if there are no leaks fluid level is correct from factory. Many automakers dont even recommend to service the trans. Life time deal
Is this a cvt transmission?
Not a CVT. It's a traditional 6 spd.
Great video but one question. Why didn't you change the filter and gasket?. Thanks
No need. No real filter in there.
Same procedure with 2012 Kia Soul?? And do u know how much fluid it takes? Thank
Bro it’s gotta be running.
You are awesome this video was really helpful for me
Michael Cajina you're welcome
Vlad S hey can I use the max life on my 2012 Tucson?
Michael Cajina
I believe it should be compatible. I see a lot of Hyundai owners of various models have good results with maxlife.
The engine need to be running boss ,, next time
Yeah, I added that in the description a while back.
Do you not have to run the engine and go through the gears THEN make sure the level is full?
I don't think so. The level is determined by how much can be put in before flowing out the side drain hole. Kinda dumb not to just put a dipstick but that's hyundai
bonsoir jai un boite santafe la vitesse r Sa klike
You check the fluid level with trans warmed up to 140-170f and engine running
Fred Thompson are you sure it's checked while the engine is running or is it just checked while at temperature and shut off?
Fred Thompson
The engine was turn off
Fred Thompson how much liter consume for 2.4Ltr Engine
Hi can you please confirm the engine must run in idle when you put a new oil and must be continue to run when you checking the level ?
mohammad safaei you are an idiot if you will run your engine in idle when you put new oil. Use your common sense, you dropped 3-4 quarts of oil in transmission then why would you still run the engine in idle? Don"t tell me when you do engine oil change you gonna run it also on idle.
If you do a drain and fill do you need to take off the overflow plastic bolt? I mean if let's say 4 qts comes out and you put 4 qts back in? It is there more to it than I'm thinking?
Some people like to do that. They drain, and fill whatever amount came out.
No filter ?
Almost impossible to get it out.
Is this the same procedure for a 2015 same model?
Yes it is.
I believe this is wrong. you gotta fill the car with 4 qts run the car and the oil get hot. while the car is running you open the side oil level cap and let the excess come out. from what I have measured it takes exactly 4qts for fluid change.
Muito bom este vídeo explica muito bem com detalhes, agora sei ver o nível e o lugar onde coloca o Óleo. tirou todas as minhas duvida, muito Obrigado.
Good info.thanks
Have a 2013 3.3l 6 cylinder; after the drain n fill, how is the reset done .
you can add it from the lvl one with a pump...you plug it to the bottle and fill it till oil comes out
Neli Demiraj : thanks, appreciate your response. Did the drain/fill. How do I reset now. Reset sign is showing “next” (inverted triangle) n reset
@@hnajee you have a dash light on? get an OBD2 to clear it
Thanks man!!!
Try to do this with the car level
Car is level. Driveway sloping down, bricks helped level it.
@@vlads2874 Good deal
Thanks ... But why engine must be running???
It is the same on kia sorento 2012 transmission ...
You start the engine and let it come to operating temp, then shift between park and drive several times. This is because there is still quite a bit of fluid left in the transmission, specifically the torque converter. By doing this, the new fluid flows through the transmission mixing with some old fluid. The level is then checked again because it could quite possibly be low after shifting. Draining the trans does not get all of the old fluid but getting new fluid into the trans is very good (There is no such this as sealed "lifetime" transmissions). As Vlad mentioned if this is part of your regular maintenance as he does, the fluid stays "fresh" .
Is that a manual or automatic gear box?
Automatic. Hence ATF.
I just changed my 2013 Hyundai Tucson transmission fluid using these same instructions. The fill nut is located under the airbox, just like the Sante Fe. Everything else was the same. Since you only drain about half the fluid, I've read that you should do this procedure twice with about a week in between. Seems intuitive, since this procedure is a fluid change and not a flush. Also, there is no filter to change as the internal filter is not serviceable unless you're doing a removal of the unit and rebuild.
You have to replace the oil pan to change the filter its about 99 bucks.
@@chrisesparza8950 The filter is in the middle on this particular transmission. Requires transmission to be removed and taken apart....
question do these cars have no filter?
A screen filter. That’s all.
Is there a filter for the transmission ?
I thought you checked the level when the fluid is hot ?
Appreciate the video...wish I watched the service guy change my fluid to see if all steps taken as my transmission completely failed within one month on my Santa Fe 2011 V6. I never had any issues before the fluid change. Any idea why this failure occurred? Was First time having fluid change at 150,000 km
Well I think you waited too long to do a transmission fluid change. Also the dealership likely did a "flush" instead of what you just watched which is a drain and refill. Flush are controversial if you search around
How many kilometer should change the transmission oil?
nice video, do you know if the transsmition filter inside you have to change it ?
No filter needs to be changed.
Great video
Do I have to check the level or I can basically refill the same amount that I drain? Can you answer?
Thanks
Some people like to add the same amount that comes out. Assuming that the level is now correct, you could drain and refill whatever amount came out. Why don't you use the level hole?
Can I used sp Vl is this possible like Fluid Amsoil atf fuel efferent ,
I would have no problem with Amsoil ATF.
What is the size of that fill bolt?? I need a new one
Thanks man. Great video
Is it CVT transmission?
no
Good video thanks
is it the same with the 3.3 as well?
No
Hi Vlad, I tried to fill the transmission fluid on my 2013 Santa Fe Sport but it just overflowed. The filler hole is blocked, will the filler hole open if you start the engine?
YJ Kim start the engine and then add fluid.
Did you drain out the fluid?
Vlad S Thank You
Did it work?
Vlad S I am going to try it tomorrow, I'll let you know. thanks
Hello Vlad, just wondering, what is the update of your Santa Fe? Any difference? You should upload a new video while driving as well, of how the gears change. I see that when my Santa Fe goes to the 3rd gear, feels like hard and change right away to the 4th gear.
What year is yours?
Same as yours 2013 2.0T
Let me know...
Appreciate the video...wish I watched the service guy change my fluid to see if all steps taken as my transmission completely failed within one month on my Santa Fe 2011 V6. I never had any issues before the fluid change. Any idea why this failure occurred?
@@soniavinodolac3251 Yes, If he did a flush of the tranny, he used a pressurized machine in shop and it tends to push fine particles through the system and clog the little trails that transmissions use. Assuming the 2011 year you mentioned, I would put my money on that scenario. In the future get a private mechanic you trust and ask for a drop fill method, all you are doing is removing about 40%, wait 6 months and do it again. I did this on my 2008 with 110miles and used walmart ATF (red bottle marked ATF) Still shifts great after 13 years. Sorry for your loss.
I just won't to know where the dipstick is lol.
There isn't one.
Vlad S that's what I thought thanks A lot.
Hi what did you use to keep the car up that looks safer than a jack stand thank you so much 😊
I drove up on some brick plates. I'm on incline so I had plenty of space.
Front end is on brick plates.
Fantastic Vlad and thank you for doing this how to video.
I cannot find tutorial for my Kia Sedona (A/T fluid change) and I found your video by chance. It looks similar to Sedona so I'm happy that I can now change the fluid without taking it to the dealership.
The Chilton repair manual is useless for newb like me because it identified the Banjo filler cap and Level check plug but there were no photos so I just wasted my hard-earned $$$.
Thanks again.
Should be the same procedure if same size engine and FWD. Let me know how it goes.
This guy did a good video. But you should never put your nuts and bolts in the gravel put them in the gravel. Put them in a container such as a coffee can. Not to be a smart-ass
I always recommend taking your fill plug out first.and in this case your level indicator as well. Make sure you can refill whatever you drain. Start with the fill plug and level indicator then you drain pug. It is very important to do it in that sequence. This guy did a great video I'm sure help others.
très bon
Nice 👍👍❤️😜
