Mobil1 ESP is my vote, and don't ask why I suggested it. Wink. I happen to have a car with Hyundai's best motor 1.6T and that happened by PURE LUCK for them, certainly not by design. I am looking for a LSPI friendly Ca 1,500 and below 5-40 oil for the summer. I have a call into Ravenol to see if they have Ca that low. Otherwise it will be Amsoil Euro oil low or mid saps.
He owns a Hyundai, and almost every motor series they have designed has a WAY higher rate then normal fail rate of say a Honda or Toyota. . A lot can make it , but a lot don't. I am a survivor of a 2013 Elantra GT 1,8 liter that died at 14,000 miles. It always comes down to some form of boundary layer failure. Even Hyundai has TSBed going to a 5w-40 as it's speced oil over 5w30 it originally came with, on the 2.0 T. A Hyundai mechanic said one dealer had over 200 cars in it's back parking lot with toasted motors and it's other brand sister dealerships were doing new Hyundai motor installs just to keep up on the all the weekly new comers. Yet Hyundai puts there head in the sand and has never solved this issue in 12 years. 2019 will come and they will have the same failure rates.
