0/30 Mobile one full synthetic plus MOA oil treatment from BG products. That's my plan.
0/30 Mobile one full synthetic plus MOA oil treatment from BG products. That's my plan.What kind of motor oil will you be using in your Santa Cruz
Yea....every 7,000 miles I'm a sever driver (stop n Go, city) So I want to change every 3500 So I'll change it in between the Dealers 7000 change.. Probably use synthetic.Whatever Hyundai puts in it.
Oil changes are "free", so why sweat it? If something happens to the engine because of the kind of oil used, it's on them. And there's always that 10 year 100,000 mile warranty to take care of it.
Ah, not so fast there, Grasshopper. Ya know those "Driving Scores that folks have been chatting about? Could they use that data to cancel your warranty...? If you think: "Well, that is just too ridiculous to ever happen," then turn on any news broadcast these days. Just sayin', is all.Whatever Hyundai puts in it.

No driving score for me, Old Blind Guy. Data Sharing is turned OFF in my app.Ah, not so fast there, Grasshopper. Ya know those "Driving Scores that folks have been chatting about?

The recommended API rating is SP. good luck finding it. How important is that rating?I find it ironic that Hyundai recommends Quaker State yet they don't offer a 0W-30 full synthetic for the turbo that meets the specifications outlined in the owners manual. So Mobil 1 0W-30 Advanced Fuel Economy it is.

That isn't the viscosity Hyundai calls for. I know dealers use 5w-30 quite often and it's probably fine, but if you're a DIYer I think you're playing with warranty fire by not using the specified weight required in the OM.By the way…I’m now using Pennzoil Ultra Platinum (PUP) 5W-30 in my Limited. I have used Mobil One exclusively for at least 15 years, and started out with 0W-30 Mobil One shortly after I bought the SC. But when I changed from the factory fill to M1, somehow my engine sounded a bit more clicky….metal to metal…noisy and it did not seem as smooth running. So I tried a few different oils and decided that I like the PUP for helping quiet the engine and smoothness. As for the difference between 0W and 5W, it likely won’t have any effect, as I’m in Texas and it does not get that cold here. Time will tell on how the PUP performs, I’ve only had it in for about 1500 miles so far.
Yep, I’m aware.That isn't the viscosity Hyundai calls for. I know dealers use 5w-30 quite often and it's probably fine, but if you're a DIYer I think you're playing with warranty fire by not using the specified weight required in the OM.
I am using M1 0w-30 until/unless Pennzoil comes out with a 0w-30 Platinum since I am doing it myself. I am not going to give Hyundai any rope to hang me with should a warranty issue arise![]()
