About 66k miles. Great car with a couple nagging problems. Transmission/clutch and alignment. Can't keep it from pulling to the right and is shows right rear wear on the tires.

It's the only data available.
Says it's 99.2% @ 50 microns or larger. It is what it is.
Yes, nothing more, nothing less is said.
That's pretty much all that needs to be said to say they aren't very efficient. Mentioned above that it came directly from Hyundai. Unknown what test spec was used. Guess it's better than no info/data on their efficiency.
The YouTube video pretty much revolves around the message that there are "fake" (counterfeit) "Hyundai OEM" oil filters out there - and probably even fake aftermarket brands of filters. Those are the ones most likely to cause ticking and noisy start-ups because the fakes are total junk.

My son has a 2013 Sonata, and we are going to change the oil and filter next week. What's the going rate on the Hyundai OEM filters from the dealership parts department? AdvanceAuto can get them for like $5.79 each I think it was, but I would have to order it.
I feel the same way about the Hyundai as the Toyota OE filters. If they come on a new expensive car, when it is driven off the lot it isn't harming the engine due to defect or incompatibilty, so it probably won't later. The Hyundai has a 10 yr/100k warranty I believe, so for me I would buy the OE filters at a dealer and save the receipt during that time. Especially if they have made any kind of statement about using genuine filters, whether they were implying fake ones or not. The Hyundai filters shown here had very deep pleats and the media looked thick.
I have had great luck with WIX and the Ultra with Hyundai. Never did get a chance to try their oil filter, but my local AAP has them for ship to home only orders. A guy here said they are different than what is at the dealer, which is fine IMO, but they are branded Hyundai filters.

Auto 7 is the same as OEM Hyundai. RockAuto.com has them for cheap and you can always get another 5% off with the discount code. Kia dealers too are usually cheaper than a Hyundai dealer for parts over the counter.
Or you can look on eBay and get them in quantities.

OK thanks for the heads up about Auto 7. The only thing with RockAuto is that they hammer some of us on shipping prices for what ever reason, and I am one that's getting hammered. I use to buy exclusively from them, but since they started their silly shipping prices back last summer, I have not bought any thing.
I will call the KIA parts department Monday to get a price on a filter.

I ordered a few of those Auto 7 filters from Rock Auto and this is what I got.

I ended up picking one up at the dealer and after tax it was $6.79. a couple times they offered me 2 for $10

Did you send them back or accept Rock Auto's shenanigans?
the outside/rim looks the same but the inside looks different than the one I got at the dealer

It probably wasn't any shenanigans on RA's part. That filter has the correct Auto 7 part number sticker like my purchases have had. Auto 7 sources from a variety of suppliers. I've received both genuine Hyundai parts and parts sourced from OE suppliers.
It's unfortunate for KD0AXS, but I guess you can't be guaranteed to get OE filters like I did when I bought Auto 7 filters.
In the past I've also bought Auto 7 wiper blades and received a KIA branded part and a part with a Korean supplier brand.
EDIT-
I just googled that company and they are an OE auto supplier. Here's some info on their site:
http://www.daewha21c.co.kr/sub_eng/sub_01_02.php
Note that the link says in 2014 they started supplying Autozone with the STP Extended Life oil filters.
This link shows one of the STP filters and it's clearly marked "made in Korea."

Call Auto 7 up and complain if you want about their ability to switch suppliers. They may have even given that photo to RA.
The same thing may happen at any retailer selling Auto 7.

Advance Auto uses the exact same photo for the filter.

It's just the nature of some aftermarket parts. They can switch suppliers or switch packaging/branding.

I would not accept the item if it is not as pictured. This has been discussed on the Hyundai forums and they have order the Auto 7 filter and gotten the OEM filter. There are plenty of aftermarket filters that will fit the Hyundais. Why accept something you can't confirm?
