You mean quarts, not liters, right? 4 liters is not enough to fill it.

Isn't semi-synthetic what Hyundai reccomends to use in tibs?

When I replaced my oil (and filter BTW) it took all of 4 litres and still not quite to the full mark...

other then that, pretty much everyone out here uses 5w30 for winter and 10w30 for summer. we also get -40.

i have a 2001 2.0 liter and the book specifies 4.0 liters (4.2 US quarts) i'm assuming that's on a completely dry system.. i use 4 quarts of oil & i'm right at the full line.
