Potential solution to Kia Sportage 7 speed DCT gearbox judder??

  • This “trick” was used in the past on the earlier Kia Souls that had a DCT gearbox.
    I have no idea if it forces the gearbox ECU to rediscover the bite points or if it just clears some glazing off the plates but it does seem to help.

    Ive spent all day researching how to change the gear oil in my Hyundai Tucson 17 Diesel DCT 7 Speed gearbox. My driveway is on quite an incline and for some time ive suffered with the car juddering while pulling away in first gear. Happens everytime. Stumbled across this video, tried it, judder gone! Hopefully for good. Time will tell but instant fix for me. I left it 25 seconds for anyone interested. At 15 seconds, there way a noticeable drop in RPM before it recovered. Probably going to change the gearbox oil anyway as a preventative measure. Many thanks!

    After 4 unsucessful trips to the Kia dealership, the last time the car was there for (7) weeks waiting for Kia to send their "field engineer", (driving a Kia loaner the entire time), their engineer concluded that the DCT was functioning "as designed". I got the car back from Ken Ganley Kia after it sitting there for 7 weeks, exactly the same as when I brought it in... You my friend are an AMAZING GUY!! I did exactly what you said, AND THE FREAKING PROBLEM IS GONE!!! We bought this car new in 2020, it only has 17500 miles on it and now it finally runs as it should... Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

      I have a 2018 kia sportage I have found that ever second or third time I put diesel in car I have to put full bottle of redex in and problem goes away.. the issue is it's all too much for the 1.6 engine these cars need to be remapped to add more horsepower also the way the accelerator pedal is set is all wrong that needs to be on a sports car not a car like this.. all owners need to complain to kia like that they will be forced todo something because it's very dangerous

      My question is how would you even know about how to sort out this issue ??are you a kia mechanic or just a whiz at gear box issues .I have a 23 plate 1.6 petrol mhev .put the box in sport mode and it changes up to 5 but won't go in 6 or 7 unless I flick the paddle switch .?? .then when slowing down it refuses to drop down gears it goes from 6 to 3 and obviously causes the engine to massively over Rev. It's Don 8000 miles and going in for 1st service in October .what do you thinks wrong 😢

      Same experience with the dealer. They said it was fine, but if it got any worse, they'd replace the entire transmission. Sounds like this procedure works, will try it out in a day or so, 2018 Soul Exclaim with 50k miles.

    Every time the season changes and those cold frosty morning arrive my dct starts slipping. Dealer had done a re-learn previously which helped for the sort time. Anyhow tried this today and to my surprise it actually seems to have worked. Time will tell for how long.

      @ G’day Dave good to see you following up 👍
      Look honestly it’s going good. The DCT had developed some strange issues at random times which haven’t come back however I find these transmissions don’t like the cold weather so time will tell if the problems arise again.
      What other feedback have you received?

    I don't know how but this works. Definitely could smell the clutch when I did it so it could be down to uneven wear which this helps or possibly realigns the clutch plates. I also had a rattle on start up which was definitely related and it seems to have helped that too.

      After one month and a half the issue is back and it's worse now. The car is plunging forward when downshifting on a slope and on a cold start, when trying to accelerate aggressively the shifting from first to second gear and second to third gear is followed by a bang noise. But this is a random occurrence. On some days it does it, on others it doesn't. :(

    So, for the even gears, turn the car on, put on R, drive with the rear wheels against the curb, put it on P, turn car off, open door, close door, let the car go to sleep, foot on the break, turn car on, put on R and let the car for 15sec go against the curb, turn back to P, turn car off, that's it?
    My hyundai i40 has the same gearbox and same "issue", sometimes it shutters, sometimes it doesn't. I noticed when I push the brake hard and let it go en press the throttle afterwards, the shuttering doesn't occur when I start moving forward. But I will try to do this trick!

      One clutch does R, 2, 4,6 and the other does 1,3,5,7 so ideally do it in reverse (back to the kerb) and 1st (front to the kerb)

      Have you tried this? I’m gonna give it a go this week.
      Never had a problem first few years but it gradually got worse. Mostly first start in the morning - reverse out, choose drive, press gas lightly, it tries to grab 1st and bucks randomly.
      I often brake and go back to the gas as I don’t wanna break it.

    I did this about 6 months ago, improved the shift across all gears as it was riding the clutch a bit even in higher gears. Made the changes a lot quicker. In recent weeks it has started juddering in 1st, so will give it another go on the odd gears, see if it helps this! Hope so because Kia dealers are utterly useless...
