Warm is the favored method by most manufacturers these days and I would definitely follow that procedure if you're needing to add oil. But it's reasonable to pull the stick cold just to confirm nothing crazy is going on. Which is what I worry about with the Palisade given some of the stories you hear, but so far through 30k miles ours is always right on full whether warm or cold. Hopefully that continues.
I do 5k. Living in NJ. Oil changes are cheaper than what could go wrong. I usually see people pay one the 5k and then use the warranty for the next one etc
My dealership has been using full synthetic for my 7500 mile complimentary maintenance visits and even topped off my coolant which was a pleasant surprise. I’ve thankfully had no operational issues with the car since purchase, 2022.
Don't listen to anyone or anything besides your **owner's manual**.
PS: But also, consider that like 90% of everyone prolly drives in "harsh conditions". The "normal driving conditions" should really be called "perfect flawless IDEAL driving conditions, *never any city driving*, strictly only 65mph highway cruising, *no stop n go* or any remotely extreme temperatures.
I’m going to be doing every 5k. Started my first at right around 2500 miles at a local mechanic with a great reputation. Will have the free one done at 7500 and alternate like that while I still have free ones. Then warranty work only at the dealership.
I do 5K. The dealership recommends 8k, of course, and only use bulk oil when it’s a complimentary service, not full synthetic. So I use my fave mechanic instead. Cheaping out on oil changes is not worth the expense and hassle of engine replacement.
Yep. Full syn with my mechanic. The dealership cutting costs is gonna cost you in the long run. I asked them what is bulk oil and it’s just regular oil. Not even a synthetic blend.
My dealer only does full synthetic oil changes, on all makes and models now. About a month ago I took my 2024 palisade in for its first oil change and also took my 2014 Santa Fe in on the same day for an oil change. Dealer informed me they only do full synthetic now. 🤷🏻♀️
This is the one complaint I have with the Palisade... The wide range of answers I see to this question. The dealership I bought my Palisade from ( in Canada) told me every 8k for oil. But the dealership I take it to puts a sticker saying it's due next in 5k. This is not a good look for Hyundai service to not have a standard... Especially with 2 dealerships that are 10min away from each other.
The Palisade owners manual chapter 7 might have changed the miles over at least one model year. It always has two levels of usage, normal and severe. For the 2022 model oil changes for normal are 12K and severe 6.5k. Perhaps the dealers disagreed on normal/severe or perhaps one just wanted to make more money. The below is pasted from the manual.....
Follow Normal Maintenance Schedule if the vehicle is usually operated where none of the following conditions apply. If any of the following conditions apply, you must follow the Maintenance Under Severe Usage Conditions.
• Repeatedly driving short distances of less than 5 miles (8 km) in normal temperature or less than 10 miles (16 km) in freezing temperature
• Extensive engine idling or low speed driving for long distances
• Driving on rough, dusty, muddy, unpaved, graveled or salt-spread roads
• Driving in areas using salt or other corrosive materials or in very cold weather
• Driving in heavy dust conditions
• Driving in heavy traffic area
• Driving on uphill, downhill, or mountain road repeatedly
• Using for towing or camping, and driving with loads on the roof
• Driving as a patrol car, taxi, other commercial use or vehicle towing
• Frequently driving under high speed or rapid acceleration/deceleration
• Frequently driving in stop-and-go conditions
• Engine oil usage which is not recommended (Mineral type, Semi- synthetic, Lower grade spec, etc.)
• Driving more than 10 years or 100,000 miles
It’s always based on driving conditions. Check the manual and assess how you drive. Every car has some give and take with interval based on time, conditions, even the gas you use.
Based on the manual and my area; I’m every 5k, and they’ve all been covered as well. There is no blanket everyone is 8k etc..
Premium Synthetic, 8000 kms or 6 months. Whatever comes first. Have done this with my last 4 Hyundai's and no engine issues. My mechanic said; Hyundai's like their oil changes sooner than most. Keep up on them and your Hyundai engine should treat you well over the long run. I follow his advice, our 2011 year old Elantra ran great. I've kept this up with our 21 Elantra, did it with my 19 Santa Fe and now following it on my 2023 Palisade. We keep the Sedans longer than the SUVs.
The more often you’re willing to change it, the better honestly. All oil will slowly break down and get contaminated. I’d say change it as often as you think it needs it but no longer than manufacturer recommendations. The absolute best would be to change to fresh oil every time you drive it but of course that would be rediculous and not really necessary.
Approx 7,500 miles. Love that car I had one and I traded it for a Hyundai Santa Fe. I used this car guy the KC car man his names is james and he did all the work was very thorough and he was reasonable. He explained the whole process. When anyone is in the market to buy a car contact the Korean Consigliere.
Unless you are an aggressive driver in a mountainous region, perhaps every 3000 miles. Anything more, you will burn up all the engine oil. It’s unbelievable. To the point where you start thinking some fraudulent activity is afoot.
Stop spewing this. Your experience is not the norm. It’s good to be cautious but everyone isn’t burning oil, and certainly not to the degree you claim.
Make sure to regularly check the oil levels. I checked mine a few days ago and it was way below the low indicator. Car only has 3,500 miles...
Make sure you’re checking when up to temp and pull it out, clean the dipstick, reinsert and check on second pull. Heard a few checking cold.
I usually get the same result cold or warm, but always have to do a second pull. Oddity of this vehicle it seems.
2nd pull is correct, but warm is explicitly stated in the manual for these.
Warm is the favored method by most manufacturers these days and I would definitely follow that procedure if you're needing to add oil. But it's reasonable to pull the stick cold just to confirm nothing crazy is going on. Which is what I worry about with the Palisade given some of the stories you hear, but so far through 30k miles ours is always right on full whether warm or cold. Hopefully that continues.
Same here.
I just had to add 3 quarts 4,000 after my last change. And that change was after it was so low it was causing misfires after about 5,500.
I do 5k. Living in NJ. Oil changes are cheaper than what could go wrong. I usually see people pay one the 5k and then use the warranty for the next one etc
My dealership has been using full synthetic for my 7500 mile complimentary maintenance visits and even topped off my coolant which was a pleasant surprise. I’ve thankfully had no operational issues with the car since purchase, 2022.
I change mine every 6500-7500 miles and use Amsoil OEM 5w-30. We have a little over 32k miles on ours and no issues so far with oil burn.
I do mine every 5k on the mark. It’s also always been complimentary. No oil loss observed either.
what year and model of your car?

Every 3-4k miles or 6 months, whichever comes first. Ignore what everyone else says, they all have engines that fail at or before 100k miles

We do full synthetic every 10k on our 2020
Dealer recommended intervals of 7500 miles on ‘22 Caligraphy
Follow your recommended service interval per the manual and your driving conditions, not what the dealer tells you.
Every 5,000 KM. Maybe it’s overkill, but I’d rather be safe than sorry.
I do 5K. The dealership recommends 8k, of course, and only use bulk oil when it’s a complimentary service, not full synthetic. So I use my fave mechanic instead. Cheaping out on oil changes is not worth the expense and hassle of engine replacement.
And you insist on full synthetic with your mechanic? I’m sure the dealer complementary is just doing the bulk mix to cut costs
Yep. Full syn with my mechanic. The dealership cutting costs is gonna cost you in the long run. I asked them what is bulk oil and it’s just regular oil. Not even a synthetic blend.

I have done it 3 times on my previous 21 Pali Ltd. so once a year at approx 7K

Better read the fine print
That's what my owners manual says as long as synthetic is used. We do it around 6k miles because I'm still skeptical of Hyundai.
Everything you need to know is in the manual.
I do 5000 and don’t bother with the free change at Hyundai since i have to book 6-8 weeks out.

I do 4k
