Hyundia rod through the block carnage

Agree, if an engines redline is 7k, then the computer is usually tuned for 6500 RPM, and the real blow up speed is somewhere above that. I doubt many Hyundai's are grenading from being driven too hard, 99% of the time I see one blown up on the Just rolled into the shop subreddit or YouTube the engine was either one of their problem engines or the owner never changed/checked the oil, usually it's the latter. Hyundai and Kia (and to a lesser extent Nissan) seem to attract neglectful car owners for some odd reason.

The cheapest option in any product or service tends to do that.

Yet I do this daily on my 183k Hyundai and it just doesn't care one bit. I drove 1200 miles to Georgia on the highway going 90-100mph over Thanksgiving, accelerating past 6500rpm to pass slow people.

Same with every Hyundai Kia I've ever owned. And the Santa Fe Sp has 261k mi.

Hemi's, Tesla's, and Theta II get a lot of "love" here. Lol

I have 96k on mine 5w30 since the 3rd or forth change.
Pennzoil plat for most of its life. ST 10w30 syn in it now.
We'll see.

Wonder if there were any warning noises?

Had 91k on my 2016 2.0T. 3-4K OCI with 5/30 synthetic. Spun bearings. Kia replaced long block under warranty. Zero warning. Not even a check engine light. Just shut down on road one day.

Or no one thinks replacing the engine in a 10 year old Versa is worth it.

Not if it has a CVT in it.
