dear AAH-
I found an odd behavior on our 04 Sonata V6. Here's the scenario-
Drive with cruise on and set in D (drive)
Select Shiftronic mode (move lever right)
Downshift (in my case I was going up hill, and went from 4 to 3)
While still in the lower gear, move lever back to D (drive) (I'd
crested the hill, and didn't need a low gear anymore).
<<>>
Now you'd expect the tranny to know that the load is reduced and pick
the optimal gear like normal (it was flat, I was doing about 60mph),
so it should go back to 4th. It didn't. It stayed in 3rd, even tho
I was in Drive. I had to go back to Shiftronic, up to 4, then back
over.
Anyone duplicate this? Is there a logic upgrade for the tranny that
might influence this behaviour? Should I contact Hyundai USA?
Thanks everyone!
