Should the New Elantra use 20 or 30 grade engine oil?
1 Answers
Elantra uses 5W30 grade engine oil. Below are the specific introductions of engine oil: 1. Mineral engine oil: It is refined from crude oil. Generally, mineral engine oil has a very low cost, but because the mineral oil base is prone to oxidation, mineral oils are added with various imported additives, with a service life of about six months. 2. Semi-synthetic engine oil: It has a high refining cost but excellent oxidation resistance, making it a quite good long-lasting engine oil with a service life of about twelve months. Considering the balance between price and quality, semi-synthetic engine oil has the widest range of applications. 3. Fully synthetic engine oil: It is chemically synthesized engine oil, which can maintain lubrication even when the base oil fails.
