I have a 2017 Tuscon with this NU engine. I have valvoline change the oil in it with white bottle 10w30 every 3500 miles. Gumout cleaner added with every oil change. The switch from 5w20 to 10w30 has stopped almost all the oil consumption, I maybe add a quarter quart every 3500 miles now of...

i get my plugs from advance auto parts. Everything I received online was fake.

i got my ford escape lugs off with a half size impact socket and a half inch impact, and pipe with breaker bar. I forget what one i think they sell at 18.5 19.5 socket set.

Just received paperwork extending my engine warranty to 15 years 150k miles on my 2017 Tuscon with the 2.0L NU GDI engine. I'll keep feeding it documented valvoline conventional oil changes until it stops, or the warranty runs out.

Yeah the grid has good conditions. Glad I put 20 inches of insulation in the front of my house last year. Much cooler. I'm in one of the few areas of Texas (West San Antonio Hill Country) with drought still, we haven't had a lick of rain.

Been up in the 90s most of the month in San Frantonio.

Nothing wrong with throwing some new Supertech HD-30 in there once a year. Takes ten minutes.

nope I received fake sunglasses, and two different brands of spark plugs.

I'd like to get one of these for myself, I commute to the office 3x a week about 30 miles each way and the Tuscon is not cutting it. Need a little more comfort. We don't have kids but I like the size of the Acadia more, and I have no need for a third row either. The 4 cylinder turbo GM has me...

I use a 20 dollar 12 volt compressor to inflate my tires to the desired pressure. Amazon.

The ones from amazon will outlast the length of me keeping the car, so I go that route.

My hyundai dealer with mobil 1 is $85 on a santa cruz.

Excellent posts above. I echo the technical training route over college in my case. I flunked out of regular college at 18, had extreme anxiety and various home issues. Was told that I needed to enroll in college as part of my parents divorce decree, on my dime. Parents had no money and...

A bit of prayer is needed for the unhoused. I grew in in Buffalo, Ny and rarely seen it. I moved to Austin then San Antonio and it is all over the place. Areas of San Antonio are becoming like California, Austin even worse. Tent cities under every overpass. Many are not from this country...

Rockauto stocks brembo uv coated rotors for $49 each and pads for $44.79. I would go that way, and you will probably get it for cheaper than the local parts store.

Roku is an ad agency, their software is restricted to only their propriatory app store. If you are cool with this then buy them, I personally avoid anything Roku.

I don't gap the iridium plugs either. My GDI Tuscon needs plugs every 30k so I just toss them in at that interval. I use the NGK IX Iridium (cheapest) from Advance auto. I don't buy plugs online anymore I got counterfeit ones from amazon twice, and ebay once.

We have Caliber auto care here in San Antonio, they are not a cheap shop either, they are a bit on the bougee side. Sorry to here about such imcompetence, and I bet you paid a fortune for their mis-service.

i buy lawnmower oil for my deere self propelled only because it comes in a 20oz bottle, allowing for a perfect oil change with no guesswork. I know i'm overpaying but I don't care. I typically use supertech lawnmower oil, and change it once a year. My deere is 15 years old and runs like new.

I used the blue pads before, I thought they were a returned item because they came wrapped in blue shop towels.
