before taking it in go to the dealer parts counter and buy a genuine Hyundai oil filter and make sure it is installed on your engine before taking it in to be looked at.
I use Pennzoil 0W-30 Euro Platinum, and a Castrol CAS3593 filter every time, and change my oil every 6000kms which is about 3728 miles. I have heard good things about the efficiency of the Castrol filters.
Use full synthetic Mobil one or Castrol Change every 7k miles. And the oil filter too.
Yes, Castrol gtx and a KN oil filter
Good ol Hyundai filters. Theyre relatively mess free
Buy an OEM filter and the top spec Castrol/your chosen top tier brand.
OEM Hyundai oil filters have a better anti-drainback valve than aftermarket filters, and they're cheap enough to use every time you change your oil. While I've used Mobil 1, Wix, and K&N oil filters on my other vehicles, my Elantra GT ONLY gets OEM filters. Personally, I wouldn't switch to aftermarket.
Personally, I’d never use non-OEM parts (including filters) in my Tucson.
I do my oil changes and if i order online its less than 10$ a filter but if i dont place order online, its like 5 dollars more.
I had a Walmart do this to me in 06. Brand new Hyundai was on a cross country trip. First pm was due at 3k with the original break in oil we were at 4500 so stopped at a Walmart. Got 16 miles away and oil light come on no knocking. Oil all over engine. Had an oil filter that drops in in o6 them drop on paper ones were uncommon. They didn\u2019t change the o ring blew out all over the engine.
