13. Confirm the two steel balls are installed on the
valve body.
For XG300/350 only: Install a new valve body
gasket, P/N 46264-39510, to the valve body.

14. Carefully align the manual valve on the valve
body to the manual control shaft and reinstall
the valve body.
Install the bolts and tighten the bolts beginning
with the inside bolts and continuing outward .
Torque: 7-8 lb.ft (10-120 kg .cm).
Reconnect the solenoid harness to the
solenoids and oil temperature sensor. Adjust
the solenoid harness to prevent contact with
the valve body or control shaft detent.
Reinstall the control shaft detent.
15. Apply Permatex Ultra Gray Gasket Sealant or Hyundai Ultra Gray Gasket Sealant, (P/N 0023113800) to the oil pan and reinstall the pan. Tighten the bolts to 6-7 lb.ft (0.9-1 .0 kgf.m) .
16. Reinstall the radiator hose and add engine coolant to the radiator.
17. Add Hyundai SP-Ill ATF and check the fluid level with the engine idling and transaxle in Neutral ,
with the parking brake applied .
18. Test drive the vehicle until the ATF is at normal operating temperature (70-100 °C, 159-212°F) .
Adjust the ATF level to within the "HOT" mark on the dipstick according to the related shop
manual or TSB 06-40-016.
19. Check for any oil leaks.
Confirm the oil temperature sensor reads correctly according to Step 2.
