Oil filter OEM Hyundai or MOTUL
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.
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.
If I really care about the car, I use Motul and a factory filter.
I'd change the oil and filter with a Hyundai filter. Oil doesn't matter so much. These engines are very temperamental when it comes to the filters as they get higher in mileage.
An oil change is no witchcraft, good oil (motul) costs about 40€ to 60€ for a 4L canister, oil filter about 10€. Oil change is done every 6000 to 10000 km, depending on the motorcycle.
All you need
to do is change your oil
And oil filter every 5000 miles OR 6 months using a high quality FULL SYNTHETIC Oil and a quality ( HYUNDAI) oil filter!!
Try to source OEM Hyundai oil filter though. I've heard that ticking before with non-OE filters, and regardless of what shops tell you the OE filter can make a difference.
72 dollars at my dealer, 120 everywhere else.
With Full synthetic oil and a HYUNDAI OIL FILTER and crush washer.... $70-100.
They overfilled my Elantra Sport one time by two quarts but it's okay because they didn't tighten the oil filter down so it leaked out all over the place. I caught it quickly so no damage done.
