Hyundai Elantra Maintenance: Every 5,000 to 7,000 Miles

For long-lasting dependability, you should plan a routine checkup every 5,000 miles or around every 3 to 4 months. This will help cover your Elantra’s needs. It’s also an easy way to stay on top of any potential issues that might pop up later down the road.

As you continue to make appointments, our Hyundai techs will get to know your Elantra on a more personal level. This will help us gauge when bigger issues arise and avoid any unexpected incidents. 

Maintenance you should plan for every 5,000 to 7,000 miles include:

• Multi-point vehicle inspection
• Oil and filter change
• Tire rotation
• Brake and exterior bulb inspection
• Wiper blade replacement

Hyundai Elantra Maintenance: Every 30,000 Miles

If you begin to notice it’s becoming more difficult to steer or slow down, it’s probably a sign you need to flush your Elantra’s brake fluid. You might also want to take a good look at your transmission fluid. Additional items you should inspect at the 30,000-mile mark include spark plugs, fuel filter, and AC coolant.

Your engine air filter helps reduce harmful particles from clogging your engine. The same goes for your cabin air filter. Replace these items every 30,000 miles. If you live in an urban area or commute regularly in heavy traffic, it might be a good idea to swap these out on a more frequent basis.

Every 60,000 Miles

Every 40,000 to 60,000 miles, you’ll need to replace your brake pads and other braking components. Your brakes are the most important safety device on your Hyundai Elantra, so it’s important to inspect them regularly and replace anything overly worn.

At this stage, it’s also time to check and replace your engine coolant. This will help you avoid overheating or putting extra pressure on your engine. You might also need to replace your transmission fluid to avoid gears slipping or stalling.

Hyundai Elantra Maintenance: Every 90,000 Miles

As your sedan enters its high-mileage phase, some larger but lesser-known parts will start to reach their expiration date.

Your timing belt, which connects the crankshaft to the camshaft, might need an update. Your fan belt and hoses might also start to leak or wear thin. Other areas you’ll want to inspect include:

• Suspension system
• Water pump
• Tires
