In the 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe, it's recommended to use SAE 5W-20 Synthetic oil for both the 2.7 L V6 and 3.3 L V6 engines. The oil capacity for the 2.7 L V6 is 4.8 quarts with a filter, while the 3.3 L V6 requires 5.5 quarts with a filter. Oil is essential for maintaining a clean and smoothly running engine. To prevent deterioration, the oil and filter should be replaced every 5,000 miles. Mechanics typically charge between $40 to $60 for an oil change, but it's a straightforward process that can be done in 5 to 15 minutes.

I have a question rather than an answer: the check engine light turned on while I was on my way to work, and later on the light started flashing while I was driving back from work. My car struggled to accelerate for a bit before suddenly returning to normal. I'm concerned because I'm a single mom who relies on this car every day, and I can't afford any major issues.
