I just changed my Transmission. I used transmission fluid from the hyundai dealer, changed seals and what not. The problem is when it is shifting down after the car has warmed up, and only into first. Also I've had a problem when I pull out of a parking space and put the car into first it kicks back out into neutral (This problem has only happened 3 times in a week and a half and I drive every day.) I just confuses me on what could be wrong b/c it doesn't have difficulty up shifting or downshifting except into first.

Has the check engine light come on? Also, have you checked the vehicle speed sensor (VSS)?
