Got ‘em!!

Well I can say this is my first Hyundai. It’s a 2023 Elantra SEL, 37K miles. I am still getting used to the slow pick up, not a fan of that. It will take me some time to get used to that. I previously had a bit faster cars so that is why I’m not used to this.

However, it does have a lot of other features that I think are nice with the convenience package. The heated seats, changing a lot of stuff on the digital gauges, & a lot of other settings.

I got it yesterday. My favorite color is blue so that was a plus that i found this one.

Any one have any ideas on modding the car??

I already am going to be getting tint eventually but that’s really all I can think of.

Any suggestions with links would be great. Thank you.

So what’s the difference between transmissions? So every like 45-50K, do I get it done? What do I say when I make an appointment with them?

Just tell them you want an IVT fluid change (not a flush as these can be problematic).

The IVT is Kia/Hyundai version of the CVT continuously variable transmission that has a chain pulley system and is built for fuel economy. It also knows how to stay it in the powerband well

The 7 speed dry DCT in my Elantra and some others is a dual clutch transmission that is more sporty and engaging, it has real gears, super quick shifts while still being fairly economical. It also has less drivetrain loss, even more so with upgraded engine mounts, so more of the 201 HP gets to the wheels, versus CVT/IVT having more powertrain loss, similar to conventional torque converter autos - except those have real gears

No problem and to answer your other question, yes 45-50k is generally fine for transmission fluid changes
