Disadvantages of the Hyundai-Kia A4CF2 gearbox

  • The service life of this automatic transmission is highly dependent on the oil change schedule;
  • Dirty oil quickly wears out the valve body solenoids, causing vibrations;
  • In the most severe cases, wear can even cause the oil pump bushing to slip;
  • At mileage levels exceeding 150,000 km, planetary gear failure is common;
  • Weak points in automatic transmissions also include solenoid wiring and constantly leaking oil seals.
