Please get a clue. Everyone except you knows that there's only 4 speed I4's in the 2008 Sonata. And I certainly don't speak as any type of Hyundai rep. It's insulting that you question people who are far more knowledge than you'll ever be.

Update: I asked the service manager at my local Hyundai dealer today whether he had heard of a 2008 Sonata I4 with a 5-speed automatic. He said he'd never heard of that, before the 2009 MY.

transmission jerks while shifting by bigredtx

i have a 2009 hyundai sonata and 900 miles on it. the car jerks into gear. very unpleasant. the tech says it needs to get used to my driving and should straighten out. has anyone else had this problem? this doesnt seem right to me that a vehicle needs to "learn" your driving habits before it shifts correctly

That is exactly how modern automatics work--they "learn" the driver's habits over a period of time. Isn't technology wonderful?
 
But it should start smoothing out pretty soon.

I do not buy it. There maybe some learning from the engine/transmission combination but it should not cause drivability issues. Let say you only drive in the city for 10,000 miles the car learns you driving style. Now you head-out to the open road would you then expect the car to not know how to go 60 miles per hour and run poorly?. I think not. My Sonata with 1000 miles has always shifted fine so it must be a quick study I guess.

I get very little jerking at all now and it's only been about 3000 miles for me. I'd just drive it for another few tanks and see if it gets better.

thanks i didnt buy it either. i wondered what if the vehicle had multiple drivers? who would be the one to teach it how to shift? anyway its not much better at this point. the weird thing is for about 2 days it acted normal then the next day back to jerking. as soon as all this hurricane mess is over i will be taking it right back in till something is done about it.

I recently bought a 2004 Hyundai Sonata with 18,000 miles on it. 5 speed manual. Started having problems with the gears "sticking" - I couldn't get it into the lower gears and sometimes can't get it out of gear at all. I've brought it back to the dealer 3 times. First they replaced the Master Cylinder, then they thought maybe it just needed "bleeding", then now they've just replaced the Slave Cylinder. It seems to mostly happen when the car is first started for the day. Especially now having problems with the cold morning. It was completely locked in first gear. I had to just pull up further in driveway. Let it idle, then I was finally able to pull it out of first into neutral. Then let it idle again, until I was able to finally get it into reverse. After struggling with the first shifting of the day, it usually has no more problems. Does anyone have any suggestions before I go back to the dealer for the 4th time? Thanks very much.
