Would anyone have an opinion about the max safe mileage I could get out of a factory Hyundai oil filter / Hyundai Part No.: 26300-35505. Thanks. Running it in a 2020 Santa Fe.

... I’ve just heard stories of Hyundai trying to deny cover if factory oil filters aren’t used.
Tell your dealer that per the Magnuson–Moss Warranty Act that if Hyundai requires you to use their filters to maintain warranty, then Hyundai must provide the filter for free.I’ve just heard stories of Hyundai trying to deny cover if factory oil filters aren’t used.
The only glitch there is if an aftermarket part can be proved to have caused damage, then the automaker can certainly deny the warranty on the damage. They will tell you to go make the aftermarket part maker pay for it.FTC Warning to Hyundai Is a Reminder to Consumers: Know Your Warranty Rights
It’s illegal for automakers to void your warranty just because you didn’t get it fixed in their dealer network. Read more about it at Car and Driver.www.caranddriver.com
It's also about the use of aftermarket parts.
Yes, of course. And rightfully so.The only glitch there is if an aftermarket part can be proved to have caused damage, then the automaker can certainly deny the warranty on the damage. They will tell you to go make the aftermarket part maker pay for it.
Uhh...noIn USA I believe it’s around 7500 miles. I’d really prefer to run. Fram ultra for 20k or so but I think Hyundai wants people to use their factory filters. I’m changing the oil every 4k. Costco Synthetic 5W-30 6qts. Yes I know that is .9 qts over the factory spec. Been doing it since new. No issues.
It’s quite common to run 1/2 to 1 quart over spec. Hundreds of members here have been doing it for years. I’ve yet to hear of even one failure due to a little extra oil. Thousands of engines get overfilled at lube joints everyday. The manufacturer's leave a margin for error for this very reason.Why stop at a quart over? Why not 2? OEM spec isnt meant to be followed anyway. Hell might as well just drill another hole on the dipstick so you know where the "real" level should be. Your crank will be happy with all the fuel dilution too
