The 2001 Hyundai Sonata requires SAE 5w-20 full synthetic oil, with a capacity of around 4 quarts. This oil helps keep the engine's internal components lubricated and free of contaminants, ensuring your vehicle runs smoothly. An oil change for your Sonata typically costs between $50 and $60 for labor, and $80 for parts. It's recommended to schedule an oil change every 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Signs while driving that indicate the need for an oil change include engine noise, a ticking engine, transmission issues, shaking at idle, and decreased fuel efficiency. External indicators that an oil change is needed include unusual exhaust smoke and oil leaks at your parked location.

    The 2001 Hyundai Sonata has two engine options. The 2.4L inline-4 engine needs 4.5 quarts of either 5W-30 or 5W-40 when it's below 95 degrees Fahrenheit, and 10W-30, 10W-40, or 10W-50 when it's above -9 degrees Fahrenheit, and 20W-40 or 20W-50 when it's above 32 degrees Fahrenheit. On the other hand, the 2.5L V6 engine requires 4.8 quarts of the same oil types based on temperature conditions. All of these recommendations are tailored to your local climate.
