I show in detail how to change your own trans fluid. Takes about
45 minutes to do it yourself. I used MAXLIFE SYNTHETIC

Outstanding video. Super clear audio and video. Specific, to the point. No additional fluff. Thank you 4/23/2021
Thanks for watching, have a good weekend
Thanks, dad! I really appreciate the walkthrough! Haha for real this was really helpful!
thanks, have a good weekend
What a great video, I think I can do it myself. 😊. Thanks a lot!
Thanks for watching
I would like to put out there if anyone is curious, some models like mine on 01 hyundai santa fe 2.7 awd have a screw on filter for the transmission right next to the dipstick below the two radiator hoses that connects from the upper and lower hoses. You may have to take off the air filter housing box so you have more room to twist with a filter wrench if you cant get it off by hand. Great video.
have you tried to get rear wheel bearing Assembly? for your 2001? impossible if it is AWD
02 was the last yr for that based on my research
Thank you for your service and quick precise demonstration
Glad it was helpful!
Did you use a short or long socket to remove the transmission fluid drain plug?
I saw the trans pan on the front is there a filter on the valve body by chance like most traditional autos?
Great video.
Thanks..have a good day
all youve done is drained what was in the pan. there will still be 5-7 litres inside the torque converter. i normally flush them from the transmission oil cooler line. replacing the amount that is removed
Graciasssssss
You can use a 15/16s socket too
Cuantos litros lleva la caja ayuda
Would dirty fluid have the car shift down or hesitate its drives fine the all of a sudden ita down shift then shift back to where it was an be fine
I don't think so but it may help a little bit it could be the transmission shift solenoid is going bad
Did you notice a difference ,when driving it?
You really need to change it 3 times to get all the fluid out. Yes, you can feel the difference when you put in synthetic fluid, they shift smoother
They have a replaceable filter without pulling trans apart
How do u access that?
See at 2:51 how poorly designed this model of Santa Fe is, where the put the edge of the frame rail directly under the drain bolt, so that no only can you not use long sockets in this location, but also when the fluid runs out at the end, it gets all over the rail. This is a situation where one engineering department was not aware of what the other was doing, which appears to be all too common with car manufacturers. Else, they would have notched out the frame rail a bit, designed the transmission drain bolt or the whole transmission to sit in a slightly different position.
You are holding the bottle the wrong way. Flip it around. Keep the opening higher when pouring and it will go smooth. Pause the video at 4.30. Flip the bottle so that the opening of the bottle is higher (closer to your hand) not lower (closer to the engine)
thanks!!
Transmission on delta engine are different from 2004
The compatible oil is sp3/4
don't you need to change the transmission oil filter
You have to take the trans apart to do that...
Not serviceable in newer vehicles, they now call for a flush. They backflow the fluid through the system washing the debri out of the filter
WOULD ONLY USED HYUNDAI approved atf like SPIII. These hyundai santa fe transmissions are very finicky to fluid other than approved
This fluid meets and exceeds sp3 .. it even meets the high standard of Mercedes ATF
@@addismultitasking3504 would NOT do it for a drain and refill or a fluid removal and refill- in a pinch if you were topping off SPIII with maxlife, then yes up to maybe 20% can be this maxlife synthetic-why? Hyundai outsources there ATF two refineries with specific ATF flash point viscosities based on there throttle valves and clutch plates interaction with ATF. We have seen dissembled hyundai transmissions (over 25 in the last year) were non spIII ATF was used and the detergents in this fluid destroyed the clutch plates and clogged valves. With online purchasing from any hyundai/kia dealer the SPIII can be found for $7.00 with shipping. The only experiment we havent done is on a new Hyundai virgin AT removed SPIII and replaced with MAXLIFE
Like I said before this meets and exceeds sp3 this is fully synthetic fluid it's approved by Honda Toyota Mercedes BMW Volvo and Audi...all kinds of manufacturers the will not be any problem using this in the transmission
@@addismultitasking3504 the synthetic part of Maxlife has nothing to do with the validity of compatibility. Again my experience/expertise is POC with 25+ HYUNDAI ONLY transmissions being destroyed due to improper SPIII. The only other company authorized by Hyundai Manufacture to produce a SPIII ATF outside Hyundai brand is www.eneos.us/. Once again economically your not saving any money by buying MAXLIFE and there are many Hyundai dealerships online that you can by Hyundai SPIII so the availability is high. GOod luck.
20.00 for maxlife 35.00 for hyundai if my math is right that's a savings and it's better fluid
