please you all wrong about the Gears. Hyundai Sonata 2008 has 5 gears and not 4. only when you put it as stick shift you will see it as 4 but the automat has 5.

hello...I just found out my car is going to cost $900 to be fixed for what sounds like a common problem. The transmission slams into gear sporadically and drags after that. They say it is the output speed sensor. I'm finding the info on here very interesting and helpful. Can you let me know what you find out from the BBB and Hyundai on Friday ??? I would really appreciate it as the people at Hyundai were less than helpful. This car was serviced for this problem before and supposedly fixed. Thanks again

For 2008, in the U.S., the Sonata had four forward "gears" in the AT with the 2.4L engine, and five forward gears in the V6. For model year 2009, the Sonata 2.4L got a 5-speed automatic.

sorry but you still wrong they just didn't update it on the system. you can check it yourself. put the gear on manuele and then when its get to 4 switch it to auto you will hear the gear switch. also the Thecnitian confirmed that issue. thats why the transmittion has problems in the car.

An upgrade to a 5 speed automatic transmission was touted as one of the improvements on the '09 I4 Sonatas. On the 5 speed Hyundai auto, you can select gears 1 thru 5 in the manual gate. If your transmission has 5 gears you'll be able to select (and read) the 5th gear if you're above about 40 mph. I'm guessing that you're mistaking the torque converter lock-up for an additional gear which you do not have.
Many, many Hyundai personnel don't know their products.

The new, second-generation Theta II 2.4-liter DOHC inline four-cylinder engine delivers more horsepower and quicker acceleration. Fuel economy numbers are 22 mpg city/32 mpg highway with the standard five-speed manual transmission or the newly available five-speed automatic transmission with SHIFTRONIC(R).

you can call the menufactor and they will tell you. they changed it from 2007 i think or 2008. the menufactor did not update it in the book. you can ask at the shop and they will tell you. i do not know why they did not update that issue but i am telling you that we checked that matter a few times already.
