Expert Hyundai Sonata transmission service at Chicago Transmission since 1987.

Transmission History by Year β€” Hyundai Sonata

2011–2014: 6-speed automatic A6MF2 (2.4L)
2015–2019: 7DCT dry dual-clutch (2.0T) or 6-speed A6MF2 (2.4L)
2020+: 8DCT wet dual-clutch (2.5L) or IVT CVT (2.5L hybrid)

Known Hyundai Sonata Transmission Problems

  • 7DCT dry dual-clutch (2015–2019 2.0T): Shudder and judder at low speed is the most common complaint β€” the dry clutch engagement at 0–10 mph causes vibration in stop-and-go traffic. Hyundai issued TSBs and extended warranty coverage
  • A6MF2 6AT (2011–2019): Solenoid pack wear causing harsh shifts at 80–120k miles
  • 8DCT wet (2020+): More durable than the dry 7DCT but early judder complaints exist

Warning Signs β€” When to Bring It In

  • Shudder or judder pulling from stop β€” 7DCT dry clutch
  • Hesitation at 1–5 mph in traffic
  • Harsh 1-2 shift β€” A6MF2 solenoid
  • Check engine P0735, P0730

Our Repair Process

7DCT: software update first (Hyundai extended coverage to 10yr/100k on some VINs). Mechanical clutch pack rebuild if judder persists after update. A6MF2: solenoid pack replacement or full rebuild. 8DCT (2020+): fluid service first.

Fluid Specification

7DCT: Hyundai/Kia DCT fluid SP-IV-M A6MF2: SP-IV ATF 8DCT: SP-IV-M

Repair Time Estimate

DCT rebuild: 3–4 days. 6AT rebuild: 2–3 days.
