The 2012 HyundaiAccent useS3.5 quarts of SAE 5w-20 or 5w-30 fully synthetic motor oil to keep its engine running smoothly. You can purchase this oil at most retail locations, automotive stores, and from trusted online sources. You can expect to pay a price between $2.99 and $13.95 per one-quart bottle. You will need around 3 bottles to complete one oil change. To replace the oil in Your vehicle, first make sure all of the d***y oil in the reservoir is completely drained out using the nozzle of the drain valve at the bottom of the tank. Next, unscrew the cap on the top side, and use a funnel to carefully pour the next fluid into the reservoir, until it reaches the fill line.
I have had 4 quarts oil change about 3 months ago no problem. I did top oil a total of 1 quart in approx 3 months. Today's oil change however 5 quarts were put in engine. It was about 1 quart above maximum level on dip stick. I don't know yet if the exhaust will smoke but so far no smoke trail.
