Hyundai Reina can use the original SM grade 5W20 engine oil, which should be replaced every 5,000 kilometers. Any engine oil with the same specifications and model can be used. Engine oil is mainly composed of two parts: base oil and additives. The quality of the base oil determines the longevity of the engine oil, while additives can improve various lubrication indicators of the engine oil. Hyundai Reina is a regular sedan under GMC. Compared to the three-box version of the Verna, the Hyundai Reina has a more compact body length, and the unique lines of the hatchback are more in line with the aesthetics of young consumers. In terms of appearance, the Reina still retains the overall appearance characteristics of the current Verna hatchback model, but compared to the current model, its size has been slightly reduced, and minor adjustments have been made to the details.

I've been driving a Hyundai Accent, and according to the owner's manual, this car is best suited for 5W-30 viscosity full synthetic engine oil that meets API SP or SN standards. I usually prefer well-known brands like Shell or Mobil for full synthetic oil because they offer excellent fluidity during cold starts, quickly lubricating internal engine components to prevent wear. Conventional synthetic oil can work in a pinch, but full synthetic provides superior cleaning performance and allows for extended oil change intervals of around 10,000 kilometers, saving significant maintenance costs. From my personal experience, I've noticed that after switching to genuine oil, the engine noise decreases noticeably and acceleration becomes smoother. If you're on a tight budget, don't compromise by choosing low-quality oil as it can lead to carbon buildup and affect engine longevity. Remember to regularly check the oil dipstick and change the oil every six to nine months as recommended in the manual.

I've been driving a Hyundai Accent for several years, and my personal experience tells me that using 5W-30 full synthetic oil works perfectly. I always use the Castrol brand, and with the right viscosity, engine protection is ensured. The oil pump operates quickly during cold starts, preventing engine stalling. Don't randomly buy cheap products, like some off-brand mineral oils, which can become thick and form deposits quickly, increasing fuel consumption and damaging piston rings. It's best to follow the manual and change the oil every 10,000 kilometers. Buying oil and changing it yourself saves money and is convenient, especially since the oil filter needs to be replaced as well. Last time I changed the oil, I noticed a significant improvement in power stability during highway driving.

When choosing engine oil for my Hyundai Reina, I prioritize cost-effectiveness. The manual recommends 5W-30 full synthetic oil, but there's no need to buy expensive brands. I often use domestic brands like Great Wall Jijixing's full synthetic 5W-30, as long as it meets API SN grade or above. It costs just a few hundred yuan and performs just as well. Regularly check the oil level every six months, and don't wait until it turns black to change it. Using the right oil prevents engine overheating and improves fuel economy. I change it every 8,000 kilometers or so, which is worry-free and extends the car's lifespan.
