Doing your own oil change do not void your warranty just keep your receipt and provide to them when warraty issue come up. Hyundai or Kia does not want you to know this.

Why didn't you leave a link to where we can learn about finding a site to help with the problem?

The catalytic converter should be part of the replacement. They end up being damaged by the oil that gets passed the piston rings.

oh great, now it can get stolen with a new engine installed

[@jerrymcgeorge4117]

Rejecting a claim because you serviced the vehicle yourself is illegal under Federal law. If any manufacturer denies coverage for this reason contact your State Attorney General.

My check engine light came on so I took it to Orieleys to have it hooked up to their free engine check system. It ended up being my knock sensor. So I took it to the dealer to have it checked out and it was the knock sensor sensing an engine knock, which is what it was intended to do. Hyundai claimed it was excessive wear in the rod bearings ( rod oil journals drilled to small from the factory) so they decided to replace the engine at no cost to me. The engine only had 71,000 miles on it! So now I start over with a new engine (with good rod bearings now) and it runs like a clock! Thank you Hyundai!!

They can use excessive oil and have bearing failure.

So what if someone changed their own oil? How is that any different then taking it to Walmart where they can easily put in the wrong oil.

They have other ways of verifying maintenance like checking under the valve cover for sludge.

Exactly they cannot deny you if you diligently do your own oil changes. That some bull shit. Their not gonna get off that easy
