Normally yes, but this is not a 70w75 oil.
It is 70w/75w same as MT-LV.
A single grade oil 70w and meets also single grade 75w requirements.
It is minimal thicker @ 40/100 degree Celsius, including same plus better additives.
And recommend for the modern Hyundai engines.

Just a stupid question the drain bolt beneath it has a plastic covering underside covering the whoile engine does it have the pre cut hole to access the bolt or do you have to remove the complete plastic floor plan covering to get at that particular bolt on the top side I believe it is below the air intake. Is that correct. Or are both drain and fill bolt on the underside, ill figure it out just need some guidance. Finally did you use a crush washer on both fill and drain bolt. Thanks

That's the basic procedure but the location of the plugs is different to your picture. The fill one is at the front of the box, the drain is at the bottom. Oncevyoy look you'll be able to tell which are which. I can email the relevant pdf if you need it.
You mean like this. Thank you very much for the information what about torque spec for the different nuts. I just wnat to ask you another question what about the water pump belt and drive belts when they need repalcing is that not a rather difficult job, would you attempt that yourself.

Here's the filler location (58,9 ~ 78,5 Nm)
Here's the drain location (58,9 ~ 78,5 Nm)
You'll need approx 1,8 ~ 1,9 L of gearbox oil.
Hyundai recommends one of the following:
SHELL : SPIRAX S6 GHME 70W, SK : HK MTF 70W, GS CALTEX : GS MTF HD 70W
Fill until the gearbox oil drips out of the filler-port

Gear changes have definitely improved since I started using Redline MT-LV

I visited an autoparts store today and I asked for the 70W transmission fluid, the two counter attendants both looked at eachother and bot gave a laugh they said, are you for real 70W gear box fluid was used to be a thing in the 70's but now all we stocck is 70w/75w Grear box fluid it will do the same thing as 70W only better and is used in all engines that require that type of fluid.
A punter standing next to me chimed in he stated his son is a professional rally car driver and he stated the same thing just go with 70/75W it is a load of Bo**o*ks whoever told you that is either trying to shoe horn you into buying expensive transmission fluid or they are being eccentric. So maybe Huihai is on the money with his ccomment I am heading to the Hyundai parts to buy some crush washers. I will ask how essential it is to only use 70W as opposed to 70W/75W and what would drastically happen if i did or is it a no brainer to use only 70W straight. I will post back with an updat on what Hyundai parts dept say I will ask the advice of a technician to verify.
The for Hyundai needed 70W is new modern formula of a specific monograde gear oil.
70W/75W is a 70 monograde & 75 monograde both in one, it is slightly thicker but still very thin.
Do not mix up this kind of formulation with 70W-80 or 75W-80 or 75W-85 or 75W-90 and so on...
These are all multigrade oils, that can vary all lot, by additives, GL and viscosity even in the same xxW-xx class.

Thank you for replying all very relevant and important to get things right concerning any critical lubes. I explained to the technician what I have written here just to hear what he had to say about it and his reply was we now use 70W-80 transmission fluid that was from Hyundai themselves @ the parts department. I purchased one X sump crusher ring, and two fill and empty transmission rings, would you believe he told me they never use new crush rings on the callipers when replacing brake hoses as they just use the old ones as those copper crush rings aren't really crush rings that's how he explained it to me I looked in amazement when he said that and I had a kind of an argument with him when he said we don't really stock many copper calliper crush rings as we always just use the old ones I said are you kidding me as everyone says to replace them with new and the reply was only replace those if they are damaged as we never had a problem though we always replace the oil and transmission crush rings that is mandatory never reuse those aluminium crush rings as they are a one time use only. Anyway, if that helps any one out who is looking answers to the same things that's what was told to me today. Your response might differ like asking 10 people to tell you a joke only one of them will make you laugh, ha ha ha ha ha.
Just did a Google search and AUTODOC recommends 75W-80
