Why regular oil changes are so important
Getting regular oil changes is easy and can extend the life of your car. Engine oil is one of the most important fluids in your car. It helps keep your engine running smoothly and lubricates engine components. As you drive, oil breaks down and is exposed to contaminants, reducing its lubricating properties. Many people may be unaware when they should get their oil changed.
If your driving conditions match any shown below, then your frequency of oil changes should be increased:
Repeated short distance trips
Like to the store or school and back.
Driving in dusty conditions
Winds often move dust more than we realize.
Corrosive driving conditions
Driving in areas where salt or other corrosive materials are being used.
Extensive use of brakes
Been in rush-hour traffic lately?
Rugged conditions
Driving on rough or muddy roads.
Inclines and elevation
Driving in mountainous areas.
Idling and low speeds
Extended periods of idling or low speed operation. Again, rush hour?
Hot urban driving conditions
More than 50% driving in heavy city traffic in above 90 degree weather.
Check your owner’s manual to see what grade and viscosity of oil and change frequency your vehicle needs and occasionally confirm that the oil is at its optimal level.
Based on all your combined driving habits, you may need to change the engine oil more frequently (every 3,000–3,750 miles may be more appropriate than the normal 6,000–7,500 miles).
Spending the money and taking the time to get oil changes when recommended by the manufacturer can save lots in the long-run.

Why Change Your Oil Regularly?
The oil inside your vehicle is there to take impurities and small amounts of water away from the engine and through a filter. Over time, the oil starts to collect contaminants that cannot be pulled out from the filter, causing the oil to break down and become less effective. Once the oil starts to break down, it can no longer protect the engine from impurities as it should. Your oil filter also becomes overrun by contaminants it pulled out of the oil and starts to break down as well. Once the oil and filter cannot do their jobs, they must be replaced. Without oil, damage can occur to your engine that may not be able to be reversed. It is highly important to have your oil changed according to manufacturer recommendations to ensure the longevity of your Hyundai vehicle.
How to Know It’s Time to Change Your Oil
If you’re unsure about the last time your vehicle’s oil was changed, it may be time toschedule an appointment with our service center. Inside your vehicle’s owner’s manual, you can find the manufacturer's recommendations on the best time to change the oil. Today, most cars have sensors that can keep track of the engine's temperatures and driving hours to calculate when it's time for the following oil change and light up an icon on your dashboard. On average, vehicles need their oil changed between 7,500 and 10,000 miles. Driving conditions and the type of oil used also has an impact on when the oil should be replaced.
The Right Oil
Knowing what kind of oil your vehicle needs is important to the health of your Hyundai. Inside your vehicle’s owner’s manual are the manufacturer’s recommendations on the best oil to use for your specific car or SUV. From there, you can decide between synthetic oil, high mileage, or high performance. Synthetic is a long-lasting oil great for drivers who live in colder regions and can improve the performance and durability of the vehicle. High mileage is perfect for vehicles that do a lot of city or highway driving and for vehicles with over 75,000 miles. If you have a high-performance sports vehicle, then high-performance motor oil is best for your car.
