Drive your car and check RPM on tach. at varies spead points....when in 8 gear that would show the lowest RPM
You should have 8 separate RPM levels

I just recently purchased a pre-owned 2014 Equus Ultimate with 39K miles.

After driving for a week I noticed that there was a shudder during acceleration between 20-40 mph that wasn't horrible but was definitely there. Took it to the Hyundai dealership and they informed me that the car had just had the engine replaced, they didn't know exactly why - they just showed in their system that it was replaced under warranty.

The dealership was able to duplicate the shudder and after a week of trying to narrow it down they called Hyundai Tech support to advise and they sent out a field engineer/tech who told them to focus on the transmission. After graphing the transmission shift points they told me there was a problem with the transmission and they would replace under warranty.

I just got the car back a few days ago (with a new transmission) and i still notice some strange shudder during acceleration (different than the original feeling). I plan on driving for a few weeks to see if there is a break-in needed and then re-evaluating.

Like the OP, I can't imagine that the car should perform like this. Since this is Hyundai's crack at the high end market I would expect the transmission to be nothing but smooth.

What was the outcome of it? With the new transmission
