The problem is that the oil filter is on the top of the engine. I just want to make sure there are no tricks involced.
u change the oil every 3000 miles
Believe it or not it is in the Owner's Manual.
The engine oil capacity for a 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe varies depending on the engine type. For the 2.7L V6 engine, the capacity is approximately 5.5 quarts (with a filter change), while the 3.3L V6 engine has a capacity of about 6 quarts (also with a filter change). Always consult the owner's manual for the most accurate specifications.
manual -every 7500 miles under normal conditions
From an auto zone I was told 4.75 quarts for a 2005 santa fe 2.7liter engine. That's how much to add during an oil change.
The oil pressure light switch is located in the engine compartment on a 2002 Hyundai Santa Fe. It is to the right of the oil filter.
Not necessary but never a bad idea if possible. Just never overfill the engine.
It is under the car.
The oil filter is located on a Hyundai Santa Fe 3.5L V6 underneath the front of the engine. There is a protective cover that must be removed to expose the oil filter.
The oil capacity for the 2003 Hyundai Santa Fe with the 2.7 liter engine is approximately 5 quarts. This oil can be purchased at any auto parts store.
Follow the manufactures recommendations as listed in your owner's manual. If you do not have one, I advise you to get one. In the mean time change the oil/filter every 5,000 miles.
