In the Hyundai Sonata 2016 model, it is recommended to use 5.1 quarts of SAE 5W-20 oil during an oil change. Hyundai suggests using synthetic oil for better wear protection and longer intervals between changes compared to conventional oil. Synthetic oil is designed to last longer and break down slower compared to traditional petroleum-based oils. With synthetic oil, you can go up to 7,500 miles between changes instead of the typical 3,500 to 5,000 miles with conventional oil. It's essential to check your oil at least once a month to ensure it's adequately filled and free from any harmful debris that could impact your engine.
