When to Change 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Engine Oil

Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport? Get the advice you need at Firestone Complete Auto Care! Our expertise goes beyond tires. We know the ins and outs of motor oil, too. After all, like our maintenance technician Brianna says, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Your 2016 Santa Fe Sport’s oil should be changed according to Hyundai’s recommended oil change intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Outside of Hyundai-recommended oil change intervals, your Santa Fe Sport may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice excess vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Hyundai recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

Hyundai has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 2016 Santa Fe Sport. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, keep the engine cool, and prevent harmful substances from accumulating in the engine. During an oil change, a technician will change your Santa Fe Sport's oil, replace and recycle the old oil and filter, inspect all of your other filters, refill vital car fluids, and visually inspect the rest of the vehicle. You can drive with confidence knowing that we look out for you and your Santa Fe Sport by taking into account your driving preferences, local climate,

2016 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport Oil Change Q&A

  • What can low oil do to my Hyundai Santa Fe Sport engine? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and cause your Hyundai Santa Fe Sport engine to fail. That’s why it’s best to check your oil levels and get your oil changed regularly.
  • How hard is it to change Hyundai Santa Fe Sport oil at home? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Hyundai Santa Fe Sport spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, fried piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Hyundai Santa Fe Sport oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Hyundai Santa Fe Sport oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • Why is the oil light on in my Hyundai Santa Fe Sport? The oil change light in your Hyundai Santa Fe Sport could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to replace my Santa Fe Sport’s oil filter when changing my oil? Every time you change the oil in your Hyundai Santa Fe Sport, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
