Hello,
I recently got a Hyundai Veloster. I am obviously going synthetic on it. I drive over 50k miles a year. The car is a smaller I4 (1.6 liter IIRC) with about 130 hp. It has only been out a few months so finding much in the way of UOAs on it has been rough. Has anyone had experience with this car? I am trying to figure out an oil and oil filter. It seems everyone votes to stick with the stock filter but any thoughts here would be nice. I was thinking for the oil to use Penzoil Platinum or Quaker State (at probably a 5W20 or 30) for the sake of keeping the cost low and they seem to be very good oils for the money. Any thoughts? There is very little information on the flow and/or filtration capabilities of the OEM Hyundai filter either, so this has been frustrating.
Thanks!
