8sp AT Transmission Whine

[Glashub]

Let's stay reality based....it's just an occurance or 2 of a potential tranny problem aside from the slow shifting.

I agree - its one occurrence... I will say if anything that this little hiccup has inspired more confidence with my dealer, Hyundai, and their treatment of me as a customer. It'd be a cold day in hell before my previous Acura dealer stayed late on a Saturday, provided me with a rental, and overall went above and beyond to go the extra mile.

I've bought 3 vehicles from them so far - if they keep it up I'll have no problem coming back.

Almost forgot about this... Case number is #4825973

Update: HMA has authorized a replacement transmission for my Genesis.

No fault codes, no erratic shifting.

Symptoms: gear whine when (transmission band noise) when up-shifting / down-shifting. Also there is an issue after some sprinted driving the transmission would delay (hesitate) when shifting between D->P; R->P -- or really any gear into 'Park'.

Dealer states the should see the new unit stateside in a couple of weeks (approx two week lead time).

I'll keep you guys posted - and this thread updated.

I'm not sold on this new transmission yet. Mine has had a clunk from day one. Whenever I take off from a dead stop it sounds like a bowling ball bumps into something. I need to get it to the dealer at some point.

New unit went in on Tuesday - got it back last night and it no longer exhibits any of the characteristics of the failed unit.

Some pictures (yes crappy cell phone. Nothing to really see as its a fully sealed unit.
