Hyundai's frequent facelifts change headlights, bumpers, and hoods mid-generation, and its engines have moved from port injection to GDI to turbocharged Smartstream units in a decade. We check your production date and engine code, and we'll flag open recalls we see for your VIN before you spend on parts.
What’s different about Hyundai filters and fluids
- Hyundai specifies a phosphate-hybrid (P-HOAT) coolant; Dex-Cool and universal coolants are not compatible and can gel in the system.
- Automatics need SP-IV (6-speed) or SP-IV-RR (8-speed) fluid, the Smartstream IVT continuously variable transmission uses its own fluid, and the 7-speed dual-clutch is dry.
- Viscosity ranges from 5W-20 on Theta II to 0W-20 on Smartstream engines and 5W-30 on the 1.6 turbo; GDI engines benefit from the factory interval or shorter.
