I use the exact same oil as you and have 20k miles, no issues. I have a Futumo valve for my oil pan which makes draining the oil a lot easier. In over 20 years of owning cars I've never pre-oiled my filter. Good instruction video! I also feel it's very easy to change the oil on this particular car. I have some Race Ramps (56") to bring the car up, or I use a jack stand.
hey man, what I do is use a solo red cup and put that around the oil filter. No mess!! plus you don'y have to take the splash shield off. Hope this helps :)
Thanks. I'm coming up on my first oil change and dreading to take it to the dealership for my first Complimentary one and just been debating on doing it myself. I guess I'll just hang on to the recipt since.i heard they like to deny any Warranty claims without proof the oil has been changed
It’s funny you didn’t mention Shell Motor oil as that’s the recommended brand on the sticker in the engine bay of my Elantra N and you will also see their logo on the TCR race team’s uniforms.
The sticker shows Shell and Quaker State. Both my Elantra and Veloster manuals only state the recommended oil is Quaker state. I simply referenced the recommended oil that’s in the manual, not the engine bay sticker. You can use whatever oil you prefer. I don’t prefer either of those choices personally.
I use the exact and oil and literally just changed the oil on my VN and my wife's Sonata. Also use OEM filters and the cars run flawlessly. I don't however go past 3500 miles. I'm in south Florida and it gets HOTTT.
Being able to use a regular wrench would be the best. But if you have trouble and you have enough room, use a breaker bar. The drain plug was on so tight and due to my limited room, I chose to use an impact wrench to hit the bolt a single time to break it free.
Which side of the crush washer faces the oil pan? The side with rounded edges of the washer or the pointed egdes?
Flat side goes against the bolt head, the rounded edge goes against the pan. The rounded side will then flatten as it’s tightened against the pan.
By the way, what did you torque your oil drain plug to?
And what do you torque your lug nuts to as well?
@@delasmoo The drain plug should be torqued between 25.3 - 32.5 foot pounds of torque.
The lugs nuts should be torqued between 90 - 100 foot pounds of torque.
Where did you get the side graphics it looks nice.

Thank you! I got new ramps after the oil change.
For a Elantra N I recommend 05-w40

Can I do my oil changes without messing with my warranty?
@@menamesframerate9136 Keep record of your oil changes. Also, I would recommend using the OEM filter for warranty purposes.
@@nprform is the OEM filter sold at places like autozone or do you have to go through the dealer?
@@menamesframerate9136 You can get it from a dealer or Amazon. I have a link in the video description.
What is the height of your wooden ramps?
@@delasmoo 3 inches
Should NEVER use an impact to remove a drain plug
Being able to use a regular wrench would be the best. But if you have trouble and you have enough room, use a breaker bar. The drain plug was on so tight and due to my limited room, I chose to use an impact wrench to hit the bolt a single time to break it free.
Nothing wrong with an impact just don't be dumb
@@tyhyhh For sure!
