Hi Bro,

 

My friend matrix oso have the same problem and was recommended to change gear box by a reputable WS at AMK auto point..

 

But went for 2nd opinion (his brother inlaw who work in WS) to do a ATF flush and found quite a bit of metal content... After that car is OK now ... can even drive up Genting and hit 160KM/H on NSH.

 

So maybe you want to try that first.....

dont ask him try that , coz hyundai cars are tough... not sure if his is a hyundai......

 

Sorry - I cannot agree, my 2004 hyundai matrix was in a worse condition when I sold off in 2007 at 63000 km vs my toyota wish now of 6 years old at 150,000 km.

 

The old matrix gearbox lag between 2 to 3 gear and jerk forward during gear change. ATF change also no use. Scrap at huge loss at 3rd year.

 

You lucky can last till 7 years.

You lucky too.

 

It very much depend on how a person drives, so far only change Gear Oil once and it's still red in colour. Wanted to change but going to scrape in 1.5 yrs, so just let it be.

Good for you, 8.5 year old still in perfect condition. People always perceive korea car cannot make it.

alot to do with handling of auto gear. some of my friends always change to neutral when stopping, think it will wear down the gear box?

[QQDreamer]

also if u dont come into complete stop and shift down the auto gear , your auto GB will spoil easily also. Because auto is unlike manual tranny concept.

Not tru, I always N at traffic light my 8.5yrs old ride @ 220k km my gb never skip a gear.

[Babybaby87]

I went to One of the gearbox specialist at Toa Payoh they told me that never put N when at traffic light it will spoil the Auto gearbox easily. Not recommend. My Sylphy just done overhaul Gearbox only. I got this habit to put N. They explain to me the whole situation.. I understand already.

[Prostcode]

Wonder then what's the purpose of putting N there if can't even put to N at traffic lights?
