The process of changing the oil in the gearbox "Hyundai Elantra. The process of changing the oil in the gearbox "Hyundai Elantra" Changing the oil in an automatic box Elantra 5

Used in automatic transmissions special oil- ATF. It is necessary for lubrication mechanical parts boxes, their cooling and washing. Timely replacement oils in the automatic transmission of the Hyundai Elantra are the key to extending the life of the automatic transmission.

When to change the oil in an Elantra automatic transmission?

• When the color of the oil became darker.
• The oil stinks of burning.
• Small metal particles are visible in the liquid.
• There are problems with the automatic transmission.

In the last two cases, changing the oil in the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission may not solve the problem. The presence of metal particles and problems in the operation of the box are signs of the beginning of its mechanical wear, which requires careful diagnosis.

Who can I entrust with changing the oil in a Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission?

Many motorists are wondering how to understand the oil in the machine themselves. If you have the skills of an auto mechanic, then it is quite possible to do this. Of course, you also need to know how many liters of oil to pour into the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission, what kind of fluid is needed for your box model. Not all drivers are aware of this information, so they trust the procedure to specialists.

The cost of changing the oil in the box Hyundai Elantra in our service - 1400 rubles, and together with the filter (recommended) - 2000 rubles.

Changing the oil in the Hyundai Elantra gearbox is most often associated with the repair of the automatic transmission itself, or it is replaced with a new one in the course of repairing oil leaks, since it must be drained for work. The oil in the automatic transmission is filled in by the manufacturer once for the entire life of the car. Oil change in Automatic transmission Hyundai Elantra is recommended to be entrusted to professionals, but in some cases this operation can be done on your own.

Functions ATF oils in automatic transmission Hyundai Elantra:

• effective lubrication of rubbing surfaces and mechanisms;
• reduction of mechanical load on the nodes;
• heat dissipation;
• removal of microparticles resulting from corrosion or wear of parts.

The color of ATF oil for Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission allows not only to distinguish oils by type, but also helps to find out in the event of a leak from which system the fluid escaped. For example, the oil in automatic transmission and power steering has a red tint, antifreeze is green, and in the engine it is yellowish. Causes of oil leakage from automatic transmission in Hyundai Elantra:

• wear of automatic transmission seals;
• wear of the shaft surfaces, the occurrence of a gap between the shaft and the sealing element;
• wear of the automatic transmission sealing element and the speedometer drive shaft;
• backlash input shaft automatic transmission;
• damage to the sealing layer in the joints between parts of the automatic transmission: sump, automatic transmission housing, crankcase, clutch housing;
• loosening of the bolts that provide the connection of the above parts of the automatic transmission;

A low oil level in a Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission is the main cause of clutch failure. Due to the low fluid pressure, the friction clutches are poorly pressed against the steel discs and do not have enough contact with each other. As a result friction linings in the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission, they become very hot, charred and destroyed, significantly contaminating the oil.

Due to lack of oil or poor quality oil in automatic transmission Hyundai Elantra:

• plungers and channels of the valve body are clogged with mechanical particles, which leads to a shortage of oil in the packages and provokes wear of the bushing, rubbing parts of the pump, etc.;
• overheat and wear out quickly steel discs gearboxes;
• rubber-coated pistons, thrust discs, clutch drum, etc. overheat and burn;
• the valve body wears out and becomes unusable.

Contaminated automatic transmission oil cannot fully remove heat and provide high-quality lubrication of parts, which leads to various faults Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission. Heavily contaminated oil is an abrasive suspension that, under high pressure, creates a sandblasting effect. Intense impact on the valve body leads to thinning of its walls at the locations of the control valves, as a result of which numerous leaks can occur.
You can check the oil level in the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission using a dipstick. The dipstick has two pairs of marks - the upper pair of Max and Min allows you to determine the level in hot oil, the lower pair - in cold. Using the dipstick, it is easy to check the condition of the oil: you need to drop the oil onto a clean white cloth.

When choosing a Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission oil for replacement, you should be guided by a simple principle: it is best to use an oil recommended by Hyundai. Meanwhile, instead of mineral oil you can fill in semi-synthetic or synthetic, but in no case should you use oil "class below" from the prescribed one.

Synthetic oil for automatic transmission Hyundai Elantra is called "non-replaceable", it is poured for the entire life of the car. Such oil does not lose its properties under the influence high temperature and is designed for a very long period of use of the Hyundai Elantra. But we must not forget about the appearance of a mechanical suspension as a result of friction clutch wear with a very significant mileage. If the automatic transmission has been operated for some time in conditions of lack of oil, it is necessary to check the degree of its contamination and, if necessary, replace it.

Ways to change the oil in a Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission:

• Partial oil change in Hyundai Elantra box;
• Complete oil change in the Hyundai Elantra box;

A partial oil change in a Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission can be done independently. To do this, just unscrew the drain on the pallet, driving the car onto the overpass, and collect the oil in a container. Usually up to 25-40% of the volume flows out, the remaining 60-75% remain in the torque converter, that is, in fact, this is an update, not a replacement. To update the oil in the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission in this way to the maximum, 2-3 changes will be required.

A complete oil change for the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission is carried out using an automatic transmission oil change unit, auto repair specialists. In this case, you will need more oil ATF than the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission can accommodate. Flushing takes one and a half or double the volume of fresh ATF. The cost will be more expensive than a partial replacement, and not every car service provides such a service.
Partial ATF oil change in the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission according to a simplified scheme:

1. Unscrew drain plug, drain the old ATF oil;
2. We unscrew the automatic transmission pan, which, in addition to the bolts holding it, is treated along the contour with a sealant.
3. We get access to the automatic transmission filter, it is advisable to change it at each oil change, or rinse it.
4. At the bottom of the pallet there are magnets that are necessary to collect metal dust and chips.
5. We clean the magnets and wash the pallet, wipe it dry.
6. Install the automatic transmission filter in place.
7. We install the automatic transmission pan in place, replacing the gasket of the automatic transmission pan if necessary.
8. We twist the drain plug, replacing the drain plug gasket for the automatic transmission.

We fill the oil through the technological filler hole (where the automatic transmission dipstick is located), using the dipstick we control the oil level in the automatic transmission to a cold one. After changing the oil in the automatic transmission, it is important to check its level after driving 10-20 km, already with the automatic transmission warmed up. Top up to level if necessary. The regularity of changing the oil depends not only on the mileage, but also on the nature of the ride on the Hyundai Elantra. You should focus not on the recommended mileage, but on the degree of contamination of the oil, systematically checking it.

Do I need to change the oil in the automatic transmission?

You've probably heard of the term "maintenance-free automatic transmission". Very often, this is guided by many services that do not know how / do not want to change the oil in the transmission. In fact, according to all international rules and regulations, an automatic transmission oil (ATF) and filter change is required every 50,000-60,000 km. In this case, the car owner asks himself the question - "What kind of replacement do I need? Partial or complete?".

Partial or complete oil change in automatic transmission?

Partial replacement (ATF renewal) is carried out without flushing the automatic transmission. To carry out such work, on average, 4-5 liters and half an hour of time are required. The new oil is mixed with the old, and the operation of the box becomes smoother. Many motorists believe that it is better to carry out exclusively full ATF replacement, with system flushing and displacement old fluid. We do not pursue the goal of earning as much as possible on our clients, but we warn about possible problems, and we recommend in some cases ONLY partial replacement.

For example, if the car's mileage is more than 100,000 km, and the oil in the box has never been changed, then such a replacement may adversely affect the operation of the automatic transmission, up to its complete failure. In cars with solid mileage, this is due to the fact that with a complete replacement transmission fluid with automatic transmission flushing, various deposits are washed out throughout the system, which clog oil channels, and without normal cooling the box dies pretty quickly. In this case, for maximum replacement of the old oil, 2-3 partial changes should be made at intervals of 200-300 km. This will certainly not be comparable to a complete ATF replacement, but the percentage of fresh fluid will be 70-75%.

In what cases is a complete ATF replacement carried out?

All of the above problems do not apply to car owners who every 50.000-60.000 km. carried out scheduled replacement transmission oils. In this case complete replacement oil in automatic transmission allows the box to serve faithfully, and increases its resource by 150-200%.

The official representative of the Huinday brand claims that the oil change in the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission should be carried out after every 68 thousand kilometers or after 48 months of using the car. Today, each plant that produces cars sets certain schedules for its models, based on which you can track how soon you need to replace certain parts, consumables, and other things. This is very convenient, especially in our time, when almost everyone has access to the Internet and all kinds of resources. You can even contact company representatives directly without leaving your workplace.

Why should you change the fluid in the automatic transmission?

All technological fluids in a car lose their properties as the car is used and just over time, gear oil is no exception in this regard. Operation in difficult conditions(most of our roads belong to them), eternal traffic jams, in which you often have to pull the car a few meters forward, the load of the car with luggage or the transportation of a trailer - all these factors contribute to accelerated wear. This happens due to an increase operating temperature in the box, which complicates the circulation of lubricant, and this directly affects the difficulty of shifting, cooling and lubricating moving parts. When the vehicle is operated in similar conditions, Special attention should be given to the level and condition of the oil in the automatic transmission.

Hyundai automatic transmission oil is usually red or green color, but their main difference is not in this, but in the characteristics that must be taken into account in without fail. For example, in the Hyundai Accent, Hyundai Santa Fe and Hyundai Getz, the grease is red and matches ATF specifications SP-3. But the Hyundai IX-35 uses the SP-4.

But even the most quality oil after a certain period of time it will darken, and it may also acquire an unpleasant burnt odor, which indicates a malfunction in the gearbox and the need for replacement.

Removing the pallet and draining the mining in the Hyundai Elantra

If the fluid in the torque converter is changed, the oil in the gearbox must also be changed. If it is not planned to change the fluid in the torque converter, proceed as follows. To personally change the oil in the Hyundai Elantra automatic transmission (by the way, the owners of the Hyundai Santa Fe can also be useful), you will need the following kit: new oil, filter, high-temperature sealant, two pieces of hose (30 cm long each and with an outer diameter of 20 mm) . Changing the oil in the Hyundai Elantra automatic gearbox (it is also relevant for the Hyundai Santa Fe) takes 2-3 hours.

Before starting the operation, the automatic transmission should be warmed up.

The first step is to dismantle the protection of the Hyundai Elantra: to do this, just loosen the bolts with a 10 key. Behind the protection, we find the pan with liquid we need. It is better to prepare a container in advance into which the used oil will be drained (about 3 liters). We unscrew the drain plug (key 24) and substitute the pan, it is advisable to leave it there for a while so that all the remaining oil drains. You can plug the hole with a rag and safely unscrew the pallet bolts, this should be done crosswise.

Then you need a knife, which should be inserted into the left corner between the box body and the pallet. Thus, the sealant is cut, a screwdriver is driven into the resulting hole. Here you should be very careful: when the pan is removed, approximately 500 g of used oil remains in it. So that all this does not collapse, splashing everything around, it is better to hold the pallet with your hand. You should be prepared for the fact that as soon as the pan is removed, the oil will begin to drip from all sides, so it is better to prepare and spread rags in advance. The connecting surfaces of the pallet and the body should be cleaned from the remnants of the old sealant. Then a new layer is applied to the pallet, somewhere 2-3 mm thick, all this must be left to dry for 10-15 minutes.

Filter and oil change

Now you can do the filter. If we talk about the Hyundai Elantra J4, then in it the filter is not located immediately behind the cover, as in J3, but in the back of the box. You can get to it during the automatic transmission repair. Armed with a 10 key, release the three bolts on the filter, and then gently pull it down. There are three magnets in the filter recess, they should be removed and cleaned, then installed in new filter and fix it by analogy.

It's time to put back the pallet, you can also mount new copper washers. In a similar way, as when loosening, first bait crosswise, but do not tighten, 4 bolts, then the remaining ones. This is done to evenly fit the contacting planes. The bolts are tightened from the middle, the recommended force is 1 kg, while the sealant is squeezed out by 1 mm.

Now you can fill in new oil, about 3.5 liters, after which you should go down under the car. In the lower left part of the radiator there is an oil fitting (a little lower is the engine cooling pipe). It is moved with pliers, and its segments are put on the fitting and hose, the ends of which are lowered into the container. Now you should start the car by setting the lever to N. Let the engine run for 10-15 seconds, during which time approximately a liter of oil will drain. Then the engine is turned off and another liter of oil is poured through the dipstick hole. The procedure is repeated until pure oil begins to pour out. As a rule, it will be for 7-8 times.

At the end of the operation, add oil to mark C, then warm up the box to 70-80 ° C.

For more exact definition oil level, the vehicle should be parked on a level surface.

Then you need to check whether it is necessary to add or drain excess lubricant. This completes the process of replacing the fluid in the automatic transmission.

Features of changing oil in automatic and manual transmissions

The principle of operation of an automatic transmission is different from a manual transmission. This means that the fluids that lubricate the nodes and elements in these mechanisms will be different. Torque transmission in mechanical box gears are carried out using gearing, therefore, the oils working in such gearboxes must have properties that prevent wear and scoring.

The principle of operation of automatic transmissions is fundamentally different. In them, the moment is transmitted through a hydromechanical drive, for the operation of which it is necessary hydraulic oil. Such oils are functionally different from those used in mechanics. Hydraulic lubrication plays the role of a working fluid in automatic box. Therefore, high requirements are imposed on it (detergent, antioxidant, extreme pressure and friction functions). All these properties can be improved by special additives added to the oil.

There are two ways to change the oil in an automatic transmission:

• partial;
• complete.

Partial replacement occurs when, through a special drainer, which is located at the bottom of the sump, the possible amount of oil is drained, as a rule, it is about 35% of the total volume. In addition, you can replace the filter, for this you first need to remove the pan. This method can be safely used at home, the main thing is to have a margin of time and a garage with tools.

When completely changing lubricants, use special units. The device is filled with oil and connected to the automatic transmission. Through one of the hoses, the box is fed fresh oil, and the waste is gradually forced out into a special container in the apparatus.

The advantages of this replacement are flushing in the box, removal of deposits and dirt.

automatic boxes, regular maintenance, do not create problems for their owners up to runs of 200,000 kilometers.

Diagnosis of emerging malfunctions of the Elantra automatic transmission is carried out by us in several stages:

• primary diagnosis electronic systems car
• check on the go, with a scanner connected to the control unit
• check the pressure and the condition of the gear oil
• then the automatic transmission is dismantled and its troubleshooting is carried out
• Based on the results obtained, the masters, in agreement with you, decide on the need to repair or replace the box with another one.

It is important to note that when serious breakdowns, it is necessary to go through all these stages sequentially. Otherwise, perhaps, after disassembling the automatic transmission, it will turn out that the whole thing was in the torque converter or in general in problems with other electronic components of the car.
