Hyundai i30 Oil Type Finder

Hyundai has been building the compact since 2007 and is already in its third generation. The Hyundai i30 is built in three body styles. With the chic i30 Fastback, a 4-door sedan, and the spacious, much longer i30 station wagon and the compact i30 5-door.

The third edition of the Hyundai i30, which was released in 2017 and revised in 2020, offers everything that the other i30 models have to offer, from ease of use and exemplary use of space to good material quality and workmanship. Since the facelift, the Hyundai i30 has had a slightly more distinctive front end with new LED lights, and the interior is up to date with the new digital cockpit and refreshed infotainment including a new 10.25-inch touchscreen.

The 1.0-litre three-cylinder turbo, an old acquaintance from other Hyundai and Kia models, is one of the best parts of the engine. The three-cylinder, which like all engines, can be ordered with the 7-speed dual-clutch transmission revs up easily and with its 120 hp and turbocharger, provides a lively driving experience. For long-distance drivers, there is nothing better in the Hyundai i30 than a diesel engine. Because of the required power with little consumption. Nothing has changed in this respect for the 2021 model year, but a lot has changed in terms of technology.

Your Hyundai i30's engine depends heavily on engine oil to continue operating at its full potential. It efficiently prevents wear and tear on the moving parts and guarantees the engine's smooth functioning by acting as a crucial lubricant for many internal components. The engine would immediately freeze up without oil, leaving the driver instantly immobile.

Without exception, all engines in the i30 series require fresh engine oil on a regular basis. This applies to the Hyundai i30 1.6 CRDi from 2007 as well as a 2.0 N from 2019. Because clean oil is necessary for the function and durability of an engine: It lubricates the moving parts, protects against corrosion, dissipates heat and transports dirt particles to the oil filter. During combustion, residues get into the engine oil via the lubricating film between the piston and cylinder. Over time, the performance of the engine oil decreases and it can no longer optimally fulfill its protective functions.

Each container of engine oil will prominently display its specific viscosity grade on the packaging. This designation typically appears in the form of numerical combinations such as 0W-20, 5W-30, or 5W-40. The viscosity grade serves as a crucial measurement of the oil's thickness or fluidity, aiding you in selecting the appropriate oil for your car. It is important to note that oils with lower viscosity grades are more fluid and thinner compared to those with higher grades (indicated by higher numbers), which tend to have a thicker consistency and reduced flowability.

So which engine oil should you buy for your Hyundai i30? Whether you are topping up your Hyundai i30 oil or doing a full change of your Hyundai i30's oil it is really important that you use the correct grade of oil.

We have listed all the Hyundai i30 models and engine types in the following table, as well as the correct engine oil grade for each of the cars. You can use the search and filter to easily find the right engine oil for your Hyundai i30.
