I query that.
Only in as much as some modern manufacturer service intervals are way longer than a year :faint2:. my Slitty is 9000 and my noo Hyundai is every 20000!
how do you resolve that?
Type of Oil
According to the 2010 Hyundai Elantra Owner's Manual, "engine oil thickness has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather operation." While the manual states that "lower viscosity or thinner engine oils provide better fuel economy for cold weather, higher viscosity or thicker engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather." The automaker recommends SW-30 and SW-40 oils for colder weather, and 10W-30 oil for hot weather. Hyundai warns that using oil of a different grade could cause engine damage.
Oil Changes
According to America Online Autos, the standard for changing oil remains every three months or every 3,000, whichever comes first; maintain this standard in a Hyundai Elantra. Waiting too long to change your oil could result in sludge, which in turn could lead to engine failure. While oil filters have generally become more durable and can guard against sludge longer, protect your engine by sticking with the standard 3,000-mile change.
Maintenance
According to a 2007 CNN Money article, "Of the top-selling non-luxury car brands in the U.S., Hyundai and Kia are still the only ones with a warranty package that are materially better than the rest." However, you must meet several maintenance requirements in order for the warranty to stay in effect, including maintaining oil. According to Warranty Deals, "you are required to perform regular maintenance on your Hyundai to keep the warranty in force." Regular maintenance includes changing your oil, as well as checking fluid levels and tire pressure often. Keep receipts from oil changes and other checkups as proofs of service.
