Where Is The Oil Pan Drain Plug?? - 8/29/2008 10:41:18 AM

Yesterday, I was to change the oil in our 1.6 liter 2007 Accent. I accidently drained the tranny; the pan looked just like an oil pan!

Anyway, I see two other plugs that look nothing like any oil pan I''ve ever seen and want to be certain I get the correct one.

I believe it is on the passanger side, cast aluminum with cooling louvers in the bottom, close to being under the oil dipstick with the drainplug facing rear. Is that the oil pan?

Did you pour what came out back into the transmission? or buy new transmission fluid? If this car has an automatic transmission, be aware that Hyundai uses a proprietary ATF called SP-III developed by Mitsubishi. Nothing else, including so called "universal fluids", are compatable.
