According to my knowledge, Santa fe 2.2 diesel models upto 2009 all they all take the metal canister screw-on filter. Not cartridge type, not sure weather its possible to swap with cartridge. Better check your original oil filter type.Hi all,
To everybody with a 2.2 diesel Santa Fé - the tool for removing the oil filter cartridge cap
, located rather badly, down , in front of the passenger on a left hand drive car - is 80 mm with 15 flats. The oil quantity you will need is 5.9 liters.
Hi maduabey - this is the first time I have changed the oil filter myself - it has previously been done by mechanics approved by Hyundai Iceland, and Hyundai mechanics themselves.According to my knowledge, Santa fe 2.2 diesel models upto 2009 all they all take the metal canister screw-on filter. Not cartridge type, not sure weather its possible to swap with cartridge. Better check your original oil filter type.
The difference may be due to the use of extended OCI in Europe which needs a filter with increased size.In the repair manual it is said that on the "FOR EUROPE LHD ONLY" there is an oil filter cartridge what you can replace and "FOR THE REST AREA EXCEPT EUROPE - LHD :" it is a metal canister screw type filter.
In my opinion it is much nicer to change the cartridge type filter because then you can avoid spillage of oil![]()
No. No other info mentioned on the manual. Only this:The difference may be due to the use of extended OCI in Europe which needs a filter with increased size.
Does the repair manual state what EUROPE RHD uses - ie UK, Ireland and Malta ?
