Hyundai Oil Change Frequency & More

Hyundai vehicles from 2020 onwards require a genuine Hyundai oil change every 7500 miles. Earlier models (or newer models driven under extreme conditions like towing, harsh weather, and off-roading) require a genuine Hyundai oil change every 5000 miles (or every 6-months, whichever is first - see your owner's manual for complete details). If you're wondering why that is, driving hard requires greater attention on your vehicle. It's like being a runner. If you come down hard on your heels or run on dirt, your sneakers will wear faster. Similarly, frequent stop/starting, environmental conditions, and shall we say, enthusiastic driving habits all contribute to accelerated oil wear and a need for increased frequency of replacement.

What do we mean by "genuine Hyundai oil change" anyway? Isn't oil just oil? Absolutely not. It is imperative that your Hyundai gets an oil change in Atlanta with Jim Ellis, if for no other reason than to keep your new-car warranty in force. Your Hyundai vehicle's modern engine is highly sophisticated and demands exact lubrication and standards. Going to a quick-lube might seem like a good idea initially, but more and more frequently, we see incorrect fluids and filters installed. This leads to premature break downs, and guess who becomes responsible for the following repairs? That's right: you.

So what kind of oil is in my Hyundai anyway? The most common type of oil to be found in new Hyundai vehicles is full synthetic 5w-30. A few other types of oil are used, and your owner's manual will tell you which grade is optimal for your region, vehicle, and driving habits. In addition to region and driving habits, there are some pretty obvious signs that will tell you when it's time for an oil change!
