Your Hyundai's engine contains many moving parts that must be lubricated properly to avoid damaging the engine. Motor oil provides this function, but it breaks down over time and becomes contaminated with dirt, dust and debris. When the oil is old and dirty, it's unable to lubricate the engine parts properly. Changing the oil and oil filter helps the engine function at maximum performance and protects it from rust and wear.

Motor oil is divided into four types: synthetic, synthetic blend, high mileage and conventional. We'll explain the best uses for each type of oil.

As the name implies, synthetic oil is manufactured from different chemical compounds. Because synthetic oil is designed to provide specific properties, it offers maximum protection. Synthetic oil is more viscous than other types of oil, provides more resistance to thermal breakdown and helps guard against rust. This oil is ideal for drivers who live in areas that experience very hot summers or very cold winters. It's also a good choice for vehicles used for towing and carrying heavy payloads.

The downside to synthetic motor oil is that it's more expensive than conventional oil. For this reason, some drivers prefer to use a synthetic blend, which combines conventional oil and synthetic oil. Synthetic blends offer many of the benefits of synthetic oil at less cost.

High-mileage motor oil is formulated for newer vehicles with more than 75,000 miles. High-mileage motor oil contains additives designed to reduce oil burn-off and prevent oil leaks.

Conventional oil comes in several viscosity grades and quality levels. It's a good choice for late-model vehicles that are driven under normal circumstances.

Your Hyundai's owner's manual will specify the right type of oil for your vehicle. Your service technician can explain which oil is the best choice for your Hyundai car or SUV.
