      Well so technically the transmission fluid is filled for life. Doesn't need to be changed at all. So that is the reason why there is no dipstick or port to check the fluid level. However it is possible to do a complete flush and refill of the transmission fluid. Here is a video for it that should help. th-cam.com/video/Um5NJwNZlgI/w-d-xo.html

      It should be 4 Liters ( 4.23 US quarts) if you are doing a oil change with a new oil filter. Engine oil is usually sold in 5 US Quart (4.73 Liters) jugs. So if you are planning on doing an oil change, you may get one of these 5 Quart jugs and it should be more than plenty. Hopefully this helps. :)

    How do you check transmission fluid and fill

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The transmission fluid is 'filled for life' according to Hyundai. That means they claim that it does not have to be changed for the life of the vehicle. As a result there is no dipstick or any other visible way to easily check the transmission fluid. However, in reality you may want to get your transmission fluid replaced at about 70000-80000 miles (112000-130000 kms).

      Unfortunately I didn't have a manual transmission vehicle with me when I was filming the video. For the most part the clutch fluid reservoir would be right besides the brake fluid reservoir, or in a lot of vehicles, the same reservoir is shared for brake fluid and clutch fluid. Hopefully this helps. The clutch fluid should never really go low, unless ofcourse if there is a leak.

    • @VirarAutomotive

      No power steering fluid in this vehicle as it has a electric power steering system. So no power steering pump, no fluid, no leaks, no top-ups, less worries! 😁👍

    Do you ever put water in your elantra

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not direct water no. For windshield wash I use windshield washer fluid as it does not freeze in the winter here in Canada. For coolant I use the proper pre-mixed coolant.

      @VirarAutomotive  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Coolant. Check the coolant level, and top it off.

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      If it's a recurring problem then coolant is being used somewhere, either there is a leak somewhere in the cooling system (radiator, heater core, hoses, water pump ) or the head gasket is bad and coolant is burning in the engine. But I would just top off the coolant for now and keep an eye on it

    Where’s the transmission fluid at?

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The transmission fluid is not easily checkable or needs to be topped off. The transmission is 'sealed' for life. Technically you don't need to check or top off fluid for the rest of the car but if you drive the vehicle under sever conditions like towing or mainly city/hill region driving, short distances only then you may need to do a transmission fluid flush and refill periodically

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      For all Hyundai Elantra since 2011, the power steering is an electric system, not a hydraulic one. Hence no power steering fluid or reservoir to worry about. 😊

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sorry I couldn't say for sure. It could be a multitude of reasons. If you are turning the steering when the vehicle is stationary, could be the ball joints or upper strut mount. But again , can't say for sure

      James Reagan hey James, I have a 2017 Hyundai Elantra and am also experiencing sounds when steering, I know I’m a few months late to the part here lol but out of curiosity could you go into more detail as to what you are or were experiencing? For example, for me, it’s a clunk type of sound, but it seems to only happen right after I start the car and steer after it’s been sitting. It seems to only “clunk” a couple of times before it stops, it’s not a constant thing which is a bit odd to me. My current theory is it’s an issue of some kind with the power steering motor, so that’s what I will be taking a look at. I figure if you are still having an issue and if it’s similar maybe we can help each other a little by sharing information on what we find out or what we have found out :)

    How to find transmission fluid

    • @VirarAutomotive
      @VirarAutomotive  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Transmission is sealed. no easy way to check the transmission fluid level or fluid check. If you want there is a way to drain and refill the transmission fluid. However for that there would need to be jacked up.

      You may add transmission fluid but you need tools and a jack to do so. But like I said the transmission is sealed and so it doesn't really need fluid top offs or for the fluid condition to be checked regularly.

      If you are looking for the power steering fluid because yes in older cars that hydraulic power steering, low fluid level could cause the steering difficult to turn. This vehicle has an electronic power steering, so no power steering fluid.

      That's correct. No power steering fluid as this is a electric power steering system. Older vehicles with a hydraulic power steering system worked on fluid. This one works on just an electric motor. No fluids.
