ive used Castrol in all my cars ive owned, One being a Kia, and then two Hyundai Velosters (VT and my N), so Castrol Edge 5w30 is what mine gets
I been using Motul 8100 X-clean EFE 5W-30 Synthetic Oil and is working fine at the moment with OEM filter.
Best budget tire brand I’ve used is Achilles
Not a lot of ratings online but I live on the coast in NC where snow is pretty much a non issue. They handle good in wet weather, typical notes are they don’t do well in snow but aside from Michelin many all season’s don’t
The Achilles Touring Sport A/S 225/65R17 or their dessert hawks should be fine
I’ve used achilles on several cars for the last 10 years or so and they are a great bang for the buck. I tried them out a set of their ATR sport tires on my veloster N because I was going through Michelin pilot super sports like nothing and never looked back.
Just got all four installed on an 05 Elantra and they definitely look like the OEM ones down to the spring thickness as well.
Why not the mando struts? They're the OEM for Hyundai and available in rockauto.
This seems like a good place to piggyback a related question: I worry about my car burning oil (apparently common for Hyundai) so I try to keep an eye on it. One thing I'm not sure of and don't want to mess up is adding more oil. I know the type and even the brand used but when adding it how do I tell if it's full or not? Do I just need to add a bit at a time and check with the dipstick again and again until I get it to the top mark? That seems like a pain in the ass.
Besides the need for washing and re-conditioning, these filters also have the drawback that they were originally designed for increased airflow to the engine. For one, we don't have an engine to begin with. What we need is good cabin air. In this sense, the increased airflow is counterproductive as it lets more "stuff" through than regular filters. If you want the best cabin air, I would recommend a carbon-coated cabin filter. I have been using and have had no issues with air restriction, and I believe the air is better air compared with the other two vehicles in our family (but they are ICE vehicles, so who knows).
Had this exact issue on my '19 Santa fe. Good alternator, replaced battery.
It will work for a few days after being boosted.
Dealership says it's the starter? It's only 86,000 km. Thats pretty terrible lifespan for a starter...
The new Hyundai windshields are kinda terrible and crack very easily from what I have seen and heard, so honestly you would probably be better off going aftermarket anyways
BEWARE ! I got 2008 hyundai 2.7 Santa Fe , 2 year ago I buy a full DNJ timing belt set after 22,300 miles the timing belt broke up. Now I have to paid over 5k to fix my SUV, next time I gonna buy the original timing belt set from the Hyundai.
