★ Top Answer
The 2013 Hyundai Elantra has a 1.8 L 4-cylinder engine that can use either 5W-20 or 5W-30 engine oil with a capacity of 4.23 quarts. It's advisable to go with 5W-20, especially if you live in a colder region, as it's less thick and can move easily in lower temperatures, leading to quicker engine starts. However, if this isn't a major concern for you, 5W-30 will work fine too. Opting for full synthetic or a synthetic blend is also recommended over conventional oil due to their positive effects on fuel efficiency and how they prolong the time between oil changes.

No, putting too much oil in the lubrication system will result in a higher oil level in the pan when the engine is running. This will cause the crankshaft to stir up and aerate the oil.
