The 2016 Hyundai Genesis Coupe equipped with the 3.8 L V6 engine requires either 5W-30 Synthetic Motor Oil in all conditions or 10W-30 if the temperature is above 0 F. The vehicle holds 6 quarts of oil with the filter, and the recommended torque for the drain plug is 25 to 33 ft/lbs. The main difference between synthetic and conventional oil is that synthetic oil is artificially created with chemical compounds and has fewer impurities. Using oil is essential for maintaining a clean and functioning engine, potentially prolonging the vehicle's lifespan. It is advisable to change both the oil and oil filter every 5,000 miles to ensure optimal performance, as oil does not last indefinitely. The cost for an oil change typically ranges between $20 and $30 for labor, with additional expenses for parts.
