| 2005 | POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION | MY WIFE'S HYUNDAI TUCSON (EITHER 2005 OR 2006) ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT TODAY WHEN THE ACCELERATION BECAME ERRATIC AND THEN STALLED WHILE AT AN INTERSECTION. SHE IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT IT INTO OUR HYUNDAI SERVICE CENTER. I SPOKE WITH A SERVICE MANAGER TO TELL HIM ABOUT A TPS (THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR) PROBLEM THAT I HAVE FOUND OUT ABOUT SPECIFIC TO THE 05-06 HYUNDAI TUCSON. I ALSO CALLED HYUNDAI BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM WILL NOT SHOW UP AS A 'FAULT CODE'. I HAVE INCLUDED HERE ONE OF MANY NOTES FOUND ON THE INTERNET CONCERNING THIS SAME PROBLEM: AFTER HAVING OUR 2006 TUCSON IN THE DEALER'S SERVICE SHOP FOR OVER THREE DAYS, IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE CAR NEEDED A NEW TPS(THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR). THIS WAS AFTER THEY CONTACTED HYUNDAI TECHLINE AND AFTER I SUGGESTED THAT THEY TEST THE TPS AS A POSSIBLE CAUSE (CAME TO THIS CONCLUSION AFTER REVIEWING MANY WEBSITES/AUTOFORUMS. SOME FACTS: YOU WILL NOTICE A STUTTERING OR JERKING FEELING ALMOST AS IF YOU HAD A MANUAL TRANSMISSION, WERE DOWNSHIFTING AND RELEASING THE CLUTCH QUICKLY WHEN THE ENGINE RPM WAS NOT MATCHED TO THE LOWER GEAR, OR AS IF YOU TAPPED ON THE BRAKE TWICE WHILE DECELERATING. THIS MOTION CAN BE EITHER VERY SLIGHT OR RATHER VIOLENT (ONCE CAUSED US TO BE ACTUALLY PUSHED AGAINST OUR SHOULDER SEAT BELT. 1. ALMOST ALWAYS OCCURS WHEN EITHER COASTING OR DECELERATING, NEVER WHEN ACCELERATING. 2. USUALLY HAPPENS BETWEEN 40 -45 MPH. 3. NO FAULT CODE EVER COMES UP SO DON'T EVEN HAVE THE TECH WASTE HIS TIME. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DROVE THE CAR FOR OVER THREE TOTAL HOURS TO TRY TO GET A FAULT CODE READING WITH NO RESULTS. 4. CAR WILL STALL WHEN COMING TO A STOP 50% OF THE TIME. 5. HAPPENS WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS WARM. 6. FEELS LIKE TRANSMISSION IS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT GEAR IT WANTS TO GO INTO WHEN DECELERATING. *TR |
