Archived from groups: alt>autos>hyundai (more info?)

I have a 2000 Elantra with about 108,000 miles (just out from under
warranty, of course). The transmission has never given me any problems
and I've had the fluid changed according to the schedule.

The other morning as I was turning into my work, a slight noise started
coming from under the car. I first thought I was dragging a branch or
other object, but didn't see anything. The noise continued, but I
noticed that when I backed up, it didn't make the noise.

If was a very quiet noise. If I had had the radio on, I probably
wouldn't have heard it.

I took it to my mechanic and he drove it and checked it. He said he
THINKS it may be the transmission. Since the transmission shop wants
$450 just to find out, I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered a
similar problem with their Elantra and if so, what the problem was.

Thanks!

You need to find a more competent shop. It's not difficult to tell which
component is making the noise with the car running on a lift.

If you verify it's in the transmission, you should probably have a reman
installed. Don't have someone overhaul your old transmission. There will
be a large amount of metal filings in it that will be very difficult to
completely remove.

It doesn't make the noise unless it is moving forward. I guess I'll
just "bite the bullet" and take it to the dealer and pay the money to
have them check it out. Thanks.

My point is that it'll probably still make the noise on the lift. The
technician simply needs to raise the wheels off the ground and put it in
forward gear (or whatever gear is necessary for the noise to occur). Then
it's a matter of probing around to find the source of the noise. Not
rocket science.

If indeed it is in the transmission, it'll be an expensive repair.
