Automatic transmission oil level Hyundai Elantra

Four-speed gearboxes have a dipstick and checking the transmission level in them will not be a problem. While there are no six-speed automatic transmissions in Hyundai Elantra cars. Therefore, there is only one way to check the transmission fluid level in them:

• put the car on a level surface
• heat the oil in the machine to 55 degrees
• unscrew the drain plug located at the bottom of the automatic transmission

Next, you need to pay attention to how oil flows from the drain hole in the box. If it is abundant, then the transmission fluid should be drained until a thin stream forms. And if it does not flow at all, then this indicates a lack of automatic transmission oil and the need to add transmission oil to it.
