Hi all! I have a 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe 2WD 4 Cylinder vehicle that I had the dealership flush the transmission 7 months ago. It's been hesitating in shifting in the last couple of weeks and when we checked the transmission fluid levels we found it sorely lacking with no evidence of a leak. I went to Pep Boys and AutoZone but they can't figure out exactly which type of fluid my car needs - their books specify the Hyundai version which they do not carry but I find it hard to believe that I can only get this fluid from the dealer...anybody else out there have any idea? :liebe011:

the only fluid that hyundai recommend is the SP111 fluid which is only available from your dealer, in spite of what you might see on other posts on thease forums the use of any other type can damage the trans.

Thank you! So I found out this morning. I was able to pick up a few quarts and get my levels back up to normal.

Thank you for your help!
