Procedure for replacing the Hyundai ix35 automatic transmission filter:

3. Remove the automatic transmission pan: Using a wrench, loosen the bolts securing the automatic transmission pan. Carefully remove the pan from the transmission, being careful not to spill any remaining fluid.
4. Remove the old filter: Bend back the latches or bolts securing the old filter to the automatic transmission pan. Carefully remove the old filter.
5. Install a new filter: Place the new filter in the automatic transmission pan and secure it with latches or bolts. Make sure the filter is installed correctly.
6. Install the automatic transmission pan: Place the pan gasket on the pan and install it in place. Attach the pan bolts and tighten them using a torque wrench according to the instructions in your vehicle’s owner’s manual.
7. Refill Transmission Fluid: Using a funnel, pour fresh transmission fluid into the drain hole at the top of the transmission. Fill in the required amount of fluid specified in the vehicle’s operating manual.
8. Check the fluid level: Check the fluid level using the level indicator or dipstick. The fluid level should be between the ‘min’ and ‘max’ marks.
9. Lower the vehicle: Lower the vehicle to the ground and start the engine. Let the engine idle for a few minutes, shifting gears to circulate the transmission fluid.
10. Check for Leaks: Check under the vehicle for any transmission fluid leaks. If there are leaks, tighten the pan bolts or replace the O-rings.
