$359 wallet cleaning

Keep that money in your bank account, not theirs

 

Thanks. Is this something I can take care of at home or any local auto shop or it's not all required? All oil changes performed at regular intervals.

 

Your owner manual should have a factory recommended service schedule in it. Follow THAT schedule, not the dealer's "recommendations."

 

I use a good fuel injector cleaner additive in my gas tank every 5,000 miles or so, then again I drive about 20,000 miles a year

 

Can you share the link ? Do I just need to add the additive or need to do anything in the engine? Also, once the additive is added, do I need to drive immediately for certain miles ?

 

$21 and you can do it yourself: CRC GDI IVD Intake Valve & Turbo Cleaner | CRC Industries

Take off the intake and spray it directly at the turbo intake as per the instructions.

 

This works very well
I do it once a year. Usually before the winter, before an oil change

 

It's not needed especially at such low miles. When engine is fully warmed up, rev it past 4000 rpm once in a while. Will get oil running though the e-vvt system.

 

Thanks. I'll try

 

Don't ever get any dealer service that is branded "Platinum". It's a clear sign it's unnecessary.

 

Listen to post #2 from Dog Patch Steve, I believe he is a Hyundai tech, he knows cars.
Just drive the car, use gas from brand name stations. Don't need to over maintenace modern cars.

Just pour a bottle in before a fill-up once a year, then drive like normal.

Things beyond the Owners Manual I like to do:
Change brake fluid every 3 years.
Change transmission fluid early: 30-60,000 miles.
Clean the throttle body and PCV valve every 50,000 miles.

While driving or while on park increasing the rpm?

While driving. Put your foot in it on the highway aka "Italian tuneup".

 

Thank you. I'll add this before next fill up.

 

I provided a link for the theta engine animation, twice iirc. Assuming the animation is accurate, the injectors are pulsed twice in the cycle, one seems to clean. I will try to look for those posts, maybe some youth members can find them faster 😆

 

Any references of auto shops in North Dallas area to get this done for a lesser price. I want to get this done as suggested by @2019SFRED.

 

Before you do that could you please change the title of your thread to explain the subject of your post?

2.0T spec

1) Does the engine have single or twin turbo? The US site states twin (error??), but nowhere else including Hyundai Canada mention this. 2) Does the engine inherent the problems from the 2.4 engine (metal, fire)? 3) Is carbon buildup an issue? The engine compression is low for a turbo. 4) Any...

Some light reading

 

Even on engines where both valves stay briefly open at the same time, the flow of air over the intake valve is going into the engine.

During valve overlap the intake port is usually under some vacuum, the exhaust port is usually under some pressure, so gases are encouraged to flow from exhaust to intake.
The piston is near TDC and not moving much.
Not enough room in chamber for 20% EGR, so some exhaust gas gets stored in the intake port & manifold, to be drawn back into chamber later during intake.

However reading over 2 dozen articles I have not found anything to back up your points.

Looked at any SAE articles? Mechanical Engineering textbooks? Talked to actual engineers?
