Tiguan owners, I can tell you from experience that you don't need to go under the car to install this! You have to reach for the boost sensor but everything can be done from up top!
I have several VAG cars and perform changes at 5k, Liquimoly kits from FCP Euro, always use a quality OE filter such as Hengst, save your records and any reasonable buyer will understand.
First of all, change the brand of the oil filter and do the same test again. My recommendation is Hengst filters, same quality with Mann and Bosch, made in the same factory in Slovakia.
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.
I have had good results with the Hengst. Recently ran a Hengst to 20,000 miles. It’s was a bit crispy but was doing just fine.
Here's the solution : your cam shaft position sensor is overheating and trying to save the engine by shutting it off prematurely instead of forcing limp mode. The fix is to use a Hyundai OEM oil filter, and check the gaskets/seals, then replace the cam sensor and crank sensor. I did this and never had a problem again.
It’s easy peasy to DIY at every OCI (5k mi or 6 mos whichever comes first, 2014 Mazda6 Touring 6MT). Been doing it, for decades (various makes; at times with an oil boy vacuum fluid extractor). Will be changing mine tomorrow. This time, will try Kirkland 0W20, with a German Hengst oil filter (identical dimensions/specs Made in Japan OEM Mazda PE01-14-302) plus Lubro Moly MoS2 (molybdenum).
72 dollars at my dealer, 120 everywhere else.
With Full synthetic oil and a HYUNDAI OIL FILTER and crush washer.... $70-100.
I've just experienced this same problem with my 2017 Buick. I have the UFI cap and the dealers used the Hengst filter 7 of the 9 times I had it changed at the dealer. Using a Hengst filter in the UFI cap results in the oil bypassing the oil filter all the time. The UFI cap expects the bypass valve to be on the filter and the Hengst filter just has an open hole there resulting in the car being run for about 50,000 of its 70,000 mile life WITHOUT an oil filter.
