Oil filter Motorcraft or OEM Hyundai

For oil filter, I run the same one on my 302 and 390: Motorcraft FL-1A. I believe it is (or was, at least) made by Purolator and is my go-to for my old Ford V8s.

OEM Hyundai oil filters have a better anti-drainback valve than aftermarket filters, and they're cheap enough to use every time you change your oil. While I've used Mobil 1, Wix, and K&N oil filters on my other vehicles, my Elantra GT ONLY gets OEM filters. Personally, I wouldn't switch to aftermarket.

Here's the solution : your cam shaft position sensor is overheating and trying to save the engine by shutting it off prematurely instead of forcing limp mode. The fix is to use a Hyundai OEM oil filter, and check the gaskets/seals, then replace the cam sensor and crank sensor. I did this and never had a problem again.

I use Motorcaft synthetic oil and filter. It's what the manufacturer recommends. There are probably 50 other oils out there that are just fine for regular driving and the occasional burnout. I just tend to stick with what the people who designed the engine would recommend over what someone on the internet does, unless there is a clear reason not to. And if you disagree, you do you.

My feeling is pick any reputable fully synthetic oil and stick to it. Make sure to change more sooner than later.

But my feeling is the filter makes all the difference some of those OE spec aftermarket are not as much OE spec. The Motorcraft filter has specific bypass valves that allow optimal oil pressure when you need it. This is crucial for a healthy 5.0 coyote motor.

I'd change the oil and filter with a Hyundai filter. Oil doesn't matter so much. These engines are very temperamental when it comes to the filters as they get higher in mileage.

All you need

to do is change your oil

And oil filter every 5000 miles OR 6 months using a high quality FULL SYNTHETIC Oil and a quality ( HYUNDAI) oil filter!!

I do my oil changes and if i order online its less than 10$ a filter but if i dont place order online, its like 5 dollars more.

I had a Walmart do this to me in 06. Brand new Hyundai was on a cross country trip. First pm was due at 3k with the original break in oil we were at 4500 so stopped at a Walmart. Got 16 miles away and oil light come on no knocking. Oil all over engine. Had an oil filter that drops in in o6 them drop on paper ones were uncommon. They didn\u2019t change the o ring blew out all over the engine.
