Hyundai recommends tune-up items between 15,000 miles and 105,000 miles. We will send you a notice when these elements of tune-up need accomplishment.
Hyundai may only require spark plugs or filter service at a specific time. Our technician will also review your car thoroughly because of our obligation to your safety.
The engine control computer (ECM) makes adjustments to maximize fuel mileage and minimize smog output. For the ECM to work within parameters, spark plugs and other replaceable items must be within limits. Hyundai specifies replacement times to allow the ECM to give you the best operation of which it is capable.
Hyundai Recommendations:
Cabin Air Filter Every 15,000 miles
Engine Air Filter Every 30,000 miles
Inspect the rear axle and transfer case oil Every 37,500 miles
Inspect Valve clearance and drive belt Every 60,000 miles
Spark Plugs Every 105,000 miles
Back in the day, lavishly expensive vehicles had cabin air filters; these days, most cars are so equipped. The cabin air filter from the dealer will adequately filter dust flowing into your vehicle. If you have allergies, a HEPA filter will exclude the tiny particles that vex you. Hyundai recommends a cabin air filter change every 15,000 miles, more often in harsh conditions.
If your engine ingests airborne dirt, damage to its internal parts will result. The engine air filter prevents this situation. If you don’t change this part on time, it may clog, and sufficient air will not be able to enter the engine. Power and fuel mileage will be affected. In dusty situations, it should more often be changed. Our technicians will inspect your car’s filters and recommend a change interval.
Engine coolant circulates through the block and heads to prevent overheating. Coolant also maintains a set temperature to allow for efficient combustion. The engine temperature must meet this parameter for smog controls to work as they should. The thermostat regulates engine temperature. It’s often switched with a coolant change. A malfunctioning thermostat will not allow your car to pass a smog test. Coolant includes anti-corrosion additives for the benefit of your engine block and heads.
Hyundai recommends spark plug replacement every 105,000 miles. Deferring spark plug service can result in poor running and fuel mileage, troublesome starting, and a failed smog test.
Transmission fluid retains impurities and eventually becomes overwhelmed with them. Rough shifting can be caused by contaminated transmission fluid. Hyundai believes transmission fluid will last the life of the transmission. If transmission repair may be coming to you, your problem may be solved with a transmission flush. The fluid in the transfer case and differential holds impurities until it is changed. Hyundai specifies a 37,500-mile inspection interval for these fluids.
