    What is the oil change process for a Hyundai Elantra at mycar?

    At mycar, we’ve got oil changes down pat. To start, we run your car for a few minutes to heat up the oil, which helps us ensure we get every last drop. Then, we safely put your car on our hoists, remove the sump plug and drain your oil. We also remove and replace your oil filter with a premium filter. We’ll refill your oil, replace your plug and washer, give your oil a check, and ensure your Elantra’s purring like a kitten before handing it back. Then, it’s back to you with any notes on upcoming servicing or repairs you may need.

    How much oil does a Hyundai Elantra take?

    If you have a Hyundai Elantra with a 1.4L or 1.6L four-cylinder engine, you’ll need 4.2 litres of oil. You can check the exact amount of oil your Elantra needs in your owner’s manual, or ask the friendly team at mycar if you’re unsure.

    How often does a Hyundai Elantra need an oil change?

    Your Hyundai Elantra needs an oil change every 6 months. Sticking to your Hyundai Elantra oil change schedule is important, as your oil not only lubricates your car’s engine, but helps keep it cool. If you’re getting it regularly serviced, an oil and filter change is part of the package, so it’s a good way to stay on top of it.

    What kind of oil does a Hyundai Elantra take?

    The Hyundai Elantra needs a 5W-20 to 5W-30 oil. These two types of oil are the same thickness while your engine is cold, but a 5W-20 oil stays a little thinner than a 5W-30 once your car heats up, which can help improve fuel economy. Keep in mind, the thicker the oil, the more protected your engine is, so it’s best to speak to a mycar mechanic if you’re not sure.
