Hi Alan, I have a 2010 KX2 (21000 miles) with the same symptoms as your car. I took it to the dealer who changed the gearbox oil on the firstvisit with no change to the clunk and then the clutch master cylinder onthe second visitwith still no change. During the summer it is bearable but on cold mornings it is a job to engage 1st and second gears.
This appears to be a pretty common problem on both Kia and Hyundai. Fortunately, the fix is really simple – all you have to do is swap out the TRS. On all these vehicles (Kia Optima, Kia Sorrento, Hyundai Elantra) the TRS is located in the front driver-side quadrant of the engine bay (the bottom-right if you are looking under the hood).
