₦airaland Forum

Been in hiatus as per the 'project'....

So, i tore open the transmission after getting it dropped to inspect the internal parts. The insides was quite clean i must say...

i compared the final drive of mine to that of the transmission of the Hyundai, obvouls there was a difference in the teeth/gearing.

But then i checked the intermediate gear where the output speed sensor took its reading...Non. matching

Did a further check online and then i realised that the transmission originally installed on the vehicle was specific for non-GDI engines( Theta II 2.0/2.4, Nu 2.0 CVVT) with the code name A6MF1( narrow band). The one in the car was A6MF2 (Narrow band) installed on the Theta II 2.4 GDI engines, while the one i removed was A6MF2(wide band) installed in the Hyundai santafe 2wd.


Now i know why people hate the Hyundai /KIA brand when it comes to parts! two gearboxes looking exactly similar , yet they are different internally!

So i just jejely packaged the gear back and installed in the vehicle and decided to source for the exact replacement (still suffering from 2-3 flares) ...

Advise for peeps on this forum... If you are to buy any vehicle(used or Toks) PLEASE avoid the ones bought brand new in Nigeria. In the event a major component like transmission is to be replaced , you may run into extreme difficulty locating an exact replacement and even if you do, the price will be astronomical. Go for the American spec.
