This is my first post on the Forum. I have been a lurker for a long time seeking advice. I just completed my first oil change at 3000 miles on my 2014 Sonata Turbo.
Hyundai is driving me crazy with their specs. First I found the oil had been over filled by about a quart from the factory. Next the manual says to use 5 quarts which I did using Mobil 1 5w30 and a Hyundai OEM filter.
After putting in 5 quarts and running the engine, I checked the dip stick and found it to be almost a quart low. It seems Hyundai keeps changing the specs. The owners manual says 5 quarts. On the Hyundai website is two recommendations 4.8 and 5.3 quarts.
Also there was no factory crush washer on the drain plug.
I remember reading somewhere about different color dip sticks and oil capacities. Mine has an orange handle.
Does anyone of the gurus here have any info. I will have to stop at Wallyword and pick up another quart to top off the oil to full.
Also I bought two 5 quart jugs pf Mobil 1 at Walmart ($22.66) each and am going to try for the rebate. No big deal if it fails.
This is the first time I have changed my own oil which was a snap compared to my old 07 Sonata V-6.
Great forum here and thanks in advance for any advice.
