Glad the "problem" turned out relatively benign. Hyundai transmission control modules (the "brain" that governs shift points) have a "limp-home" mode that restricts operation to reverse and 3rd gear (maybe 4th gear in 5-sp units - not sure) when forcing gear changes in a broken tranny might result in additional damage. As you can imagine, with forward progress restricted to one of the higher gears, the car would behave like a slug, but, at least, would get you home or to the dealer. That was my first thought as I read your original post, but it turned out not to be a tranny problem. Well done!

I had the TSB applied to my Ultimate, and the 1-2 shift is now crisp, similar to other shifts. It now shifts correctly no matter how much throttle. It is lightyears better than it was prior to this, which had a long interval between the shift with a seeming increase in rpm. Not sure about the downshift.

azera low speed(40-45 mph and below) driveability by kdzuba

my 06 has 2400 miles. It is great everyway but at cold and low speed operation which is very poor. It seems to hesitate a lot and feels like it doesn't know whether to upshift or down shift and just seems to "flutter" doing neither without pushing gas to it. Very hard to describe (cause its erratic) but, to me, feels kinda like there is somekind of vacuum problem. I might also say it feels like it's "missing" Open road mileage is good at 29 or 30 but 150 miles of that type of driving will drop to 21 or 22 (overall trip mileage)with 50 miles of semi-city driving (urban stop and go). I know this can't be common as all the reviews would have commented on it.....Anyone got a thought....can't afford to pull over and shoot it!

I was just wondering if I'm the only one here that my Azera will NOT downshift from 3rd gear to 2nd gear.
If I do NOT come to a full stop and give gas my car will continue from 3rd gear. I have never seen it go from 3rd to 2nd gear and my mechanic says it's normal.
 
Any advice would be appreciated.
 
Thanks

I just noticed a new Service Bulletin concerning cold transmission operation. It doesn't specifically refer to either one of your problems but the clue is that the transmission is controlled by the computer. The service bulletin talks about reprogramming it for better operation. It might be worthwhile to have the dealer service people check your program. The term "Normal" seems to be a very overworked word by service people who don't have the foggiest idea of how to deal with an owner complaint. My "Normal" front suspension noises are another perfect example of this.

How did you determine that it's not downshifting properly? At any rate, I've not experienced any notable peculiarity when working my way through traffic and I do indeed use the power on occasion (wayyyy too often ) to manuever my way through the lane hogs while traveling at lower than 5th-gear speeds...

Hyundai Azera Transmission Lag by tictac3
Mar 06, 2007 (10:51 am)

I recently purchased a new 2006 Azera SE. After driving it for about a month, I have become more aware of a definite lag when, in the automatic mode, the transmission shifts from 1st to 2nd and from 2nd to 3rd. Other shifts do not seem to be affected. This happens under most any type of acceleration, although it is less noticeable under light acceleration. Has anyone else experienced this with their Azera? I am scheduled for my first oil change (dealer paid) in the next week or so and I would like to have more information when I speak with the service writer.

RE:
Although the Azera has an adaptive transmission which "learns" your driving habits and changes shift patterns based on your actual driving, the tech at my local dealership claims that the adaptive pattern cannot be zeroed out.
I am not positive that he is correct, although he claims that he checked this out with Hyundai engineering.
