With that much oil burning (10-12 qts. per/year), the Catalytic converter(s) & O2 sensors must be in rough shape.
Hey Scotty, can you please answer this question in the next video? My 2001 Dodge Dakota Sport has trouble starting. It blows white smoke while running, I believe I need to replace the piston rings. Has over 200,000 miles on it. When I attempt to start it, it spits and sputters and then eventually cranks up. I believe it’s a fuel injection problem. Do you think it could be anything different?
@@rustyshackelford1483 I wonder if by increasing the viscosity of the oil from the 5W-20 to 10W-20 or 30 would cut down the oil consumption.
Scotty gas is too expensive I can’t rev my engine up 😂
@@InternetDude are you deaf?
Me neither 😂🤣 😜🇬🇧💪 Boosted rover T16 Turbo power can't afford it no more so dirty diesel man! Disgraceful price of fuel in England!
😆
Mad funny, never heard this joke before.
Me too, I drive a tiny Ford Fiesta and I keep my rpm as low as possible, no revving, and only use A/C going downhill 😂.
I have a 2011 Sonata 2.4 with 245,000 miles. Thing has been a rock!
Me too!......156k. Solid car but it's an MPI not GDI and it's made in Korea!
I also have 314k. Still working
My 2012 sonata 2.4 with 302,000 miles. These things are great
$12k for a car that’s gotten him to work without fail.. He’s made more than his money’s worth on that car. $12,000 was a steal even before the inflation started.
@Kyle Belair Copart
@@juanmanuelalvarezmesa2965 a Hyundai with blown engine yes you can find there
Exactly, he bought it around 60-70K miles and has 170K miles now. He got his moneys worth if he only did regular maintenance, Scotty complaining about slight oil consumption? The car did its job and continues to do so. SMH
Seems a lot, to me. My 15 XB with 32k miles was only $11500 4 years ago.
We got our 2016 elantra with 26k miles for 12k. Loved every second of owning this vehicle.
Why are some car brands so "unreliable" in the USA, but reliable everywhere else?
It's a shame about the oil burning issue on these 2.4L GDI engines. I test drove a 2011 Sonata SEL and an SE when they first came out. I was very impressed with both. Solid cars. From my understanding, the engine issue aside, they're quite reliable. Also, remember Toyota had oil burning issues on various models 15-20yrs ago.
These engines and transmission are trash
Yeah, I remember someone from the Kia Soul forum getting rid of their 2014 Kia Soul with the 2.0L & it had severe oil consumption to then get a 2012 Scion XB with 2.4L, also ended up with severe oil consumption. Can't win!
Scotty morphing into full Grandpa Simpson right in front of us!
I'm surprised he's just "pissed off," as opposed to "mad as hell" 😉
😂😂😂
Old mechanics get pissed when temps are 100F
Next video.
That's 4 quarts of oil between every oil change. Shouldn't have to change it all using that much. 😂🤣
You know, something interesting about these cars (that you most likely already knew) is that the GDI pump is mechanical. It’s run off of an extra lobe on the cam shaft, and that lobe pushes a plunger, which allows the gas to be fed to the injectors. Pretty cool!
And after 100K miles the GDI pump seal will fail and fuel will leak into the crankcase - diluting the oil and giving excess wear on the engine. Not cool... $250 to replace.
Good practical advice Scotty. If it's in good shape and runs good keep it and enjoy the savings. Mechanics told me to get rid of my perfectly running 2003 Carolla because it is old.and has almost 300 thousand on it. I told them I'll get another 100 thousand trouble free miles.
Same, my grandparents has an old toyota diesel and it shakes like alot during idle and burns a quart of oil every 3000 miles, it still starts right up and my grandfather said he'll drive it until it gives up before he'll buy another car, that was 6 years ago and he's still driving the same car
@@lancelotbustillo6455 I like it! Keep on truckin
Very smart. No car payment. Instead, pretend you have a payment and save it. Then one day in the distant future if your Corolla can’t Corolla anymore, buy a used one with about 100k for cheap and get another 300-400k out of it! 😊
Enjoy your appliance. I still use my 1923 radio. Don't need a tv
@@noob.168 Tempting.. I think the withdrawal would injure me..
I'm in the same boat with my Kia Soul. It's not a GDi engine, it gets 35mpg on average, I do highway driving almost exclusively, so my aim is to keep up on the oil changes, monitor for burning oil, and just keep the sucker running.
I had a shop telling me that they couldn’t fix some issue with my Altima and told me to take it to the dealership to get it fixed. I never noped out so hard in a decision nor went back to that shop
Good look with that ricer.
@@Richard4point6 an altima isn't a ricer lmao.
As you said, if you don't get the right advice, go somewhere else. Good luck in your search of a competent mechanic or shop, my neighbor has a 2010 Altima, yes it's all rusted because of the road salt used here in Montreal, but he drives it, his son and daughter drive it as well. The car is rarely sitting in the driveway. So if the engine and related components are still good than keep it.
I don't see what's wrong with that. Sometimes the manufacturer is the only one with the knowledge to diagnose a random issue, or is the only one able to source a part. And not everything there is a ripoff. I used to do all my oil changes at the honda dealer on my old accord. And they would charge me $80, which is a good price for synthetic. But unlike random mechanics, they would also top up all my fluids, do a general inspection and let me know if something is going soon
@@nickowens6950Altima is Nissan…… a ricer
You always give me confidence that I can keep my 2002 Ford Taurus with 122,000 miles for a long, long time!!
2009 Impala purchased new with proactive maintenance and repair. 264k miles... All about maintenance as you know.
You can stop the oil burn issue, so long as it wasn’t caused by running low on oil. I was burning a quart every 200 miles and started fouling plugs. 5 treatments on B-12 directly into the cylinders over 3 days and it freed the oil rings completely. 3k miles and doesn’t burn a drop of oil with 130k miles on the motor. There are a few videos out there to show you how. B-12 is no joke so only use in a well ventilated area and don’t get it on the paint (my mistake on both). This was a last resort before I replaced the engine and I wish I had tried this first! Good luck
truth is if you have a car that is still rolling with minimal problems you need to hang on to it. Especially in this shite economy.
That is the truth.
Scotty making that sound at 9:09 got me lmao
the burnt oil half a mustache Scotty has is best. Who is your cameraman ? I love these videos thank you for posting Scotty you’ve taught me so much
Nice to see that Utah plate there. I thought I recognized the name on that receipt.
Best check for ring wear is a leak down test
Hey @ScottyKilmer...it is probably worth mentioning that if you are considering a used Hyundai or Kia to at least check the VIN or do some online research to see if it is one that has been recalled for potential engine failure or fire risk. Not saying they all have problems (so chill Hyundai/Kia fans) but just saying given the company's recent history with major engine issues that it is worth taking a couple minutes to check
Which models r u talking about? So now I can not look into them anymore
Also check for a lack of immobilizer for the ignition lock. And also check for the Insurance coverage. Some insurance companies just flat out refusing covering these two Korean brands.
Scotty I have a 2014 Sonata and I love it! I have had issues with my engine and a few other things but I also do have a few bolt ons my car. It’s pretty quick for a non-turbo 4 banger.
We had that same exact issue with our Hyundai Tucson and we had three catalytic converters put into it because it kept clogging the catalytic converter and blowing them up
That's my concern with oil burning - it will eventually contaminate the cat and fail emissions test. Requiring replacement - very expensive. GDI engines should be outlawed.
Wait a second Scotty aren't you supposed to be "damn mad about it?" :)
Nope, more like "Mad as Hell"
I've got a 2008 Hyundai Elantra, bought it brand new. Runs like a top. 211,000 miles. Purrs like a kitten, can't even tell the engine is running, but it is.
I have 2015 hyundai elantra it’s cranking but no start, have to give it some gas for it to start. It drives normal after start up, no check engine light on the dash or pending codes.
I have seen quite a few times where someone try to jump the vehicle off and hooked the jumper cables up backwards. They blew the main fuse and it wouldn't crank.
I had a 1978 dolphin motorhome 15 years ago a Toyota with a for cylinder was pushing it. I drove it from Michigan to Kentucky then we had tornados so I got out of the bad weather and drove to the panhandle of Florida. It burnt a Quart of oil every 150 miles. My wife was surprised it drove that far.
It's getting to the point where you have to buy racing parts just to get quality parts on your daily.
The Hyundai Dealer replaced my engine at 101,000 miles due to excessive oil consumption. I was burning 1 quart every 1,000 miles. There is a magnetic plug in the engine and it was full of metal shavings. Have the dealer pull the magnetic plug and take a picture. I feel the engine was ready to blow up. 2017 Sonata.
My 2015 Hyundai is burning oil like crazy.
Great job Scotty, Thank you! 👏🏿 Finally an accurate review of a Hyundai Sonata good and the bad. I currently own a 15 Sonata turbo with 173K miles original engine that I've owned since new, had a few hiccups throughout the 7 years but overall it's never left me stranded, hoping to get at least 250K before I fully retire her lol
he's always given accurate reviews of Hyundai's. they've had motor problems for the last decade
Still I doubt that this car has never gotten any suspension work at 169.000miles that's 271.000km. Here in Germany some MOT tester would have said that struts or anything is worn and unsafe. At least that would be on German roads and working in a dealership usally any suspension work has to be done at 140.000km/86.000miles doesn't really matter which brand I guess. All the Opels, VWs, Mercedes and BMWs I've seen need it at that point in time.
Pretty much. Not spectacular quality but not terrible either
Yes! Had mines since 33,000 miles with the 2.4L and now has 200,000+. Starts up, runs, keep the regular maintenance up, it keeps on going
Same with me…. Mine is a16 with 150k
When I was a Hyundai mechanic there was a guy with a 14 Sonata that burned a quart of oil a week.
Do all sonatas have that problem? My 13 has been pretty good and I put almost 80k on it after 8 years.
@@johnarbuckle6583it's because of the GDI engine they use, it's an oil burner
The Dealer screwed the buyer over by selling them one
Not only does today's engines burn oil but get crappy fuel mileage. Oil companies wet dream. 😅
Holy heck this guy was ABSOLUTELY PISSED at this dealer and I would be PISSED OFF too.
Weird that the CAT is still okay when it burns oil.
There could be a leak somewhere too.
@@GixxerRider1991
Naaa... Scotty wouldn't miss a leak.
Do the tail lights work? I swear damn near every Hyundai I see has no brake lights except the 3rd light in the window😂😂
I had a short in one of my taillights (‘12 Sorento) because you have to take the whole taillight assembly out to change the bulb and this degrades the wires. A new harness will fix the short, but a new car is probably a better solution, lol.
Hey Scotty. Looking at getting a little pick-up truck as a daily driver. What is your opinion on either a 2014 Toyota Tacoma, 4-speed auto, 4 cyl 2.7L engine with 160,000 miles. Also looking at another Tacoma 2007 V6 5L, 5-speed auto with 111,191. Thank you in advance
I see the problem. It’s a Hyundai! 😆😆🤣🤣😂😂
170.000 miles hyundai that's the problem
@@jacksonndoll5055
That’s not a problem. It’s a miracle.
@@tatt4music i think miracle happened again. I had a 2006 sonata got 165000. I bought it fresh out of school used because that's the one i could afford. I don't regret it at all besides than miss since then since i had 2013 sonata, 17 santa fe for my wife and now 22 n line tucson all i have with them is good experience. Bring us to work, school anytime never let us down. I have friend with 40 000 miles other brand with transmission issue. Then again it's their choice.
170k! People like bashing on this brand for no reason
156,000 on my Genesis coupe still going strong I'm pissed that both my windows are broken but other than that it's ok power windows suck wish they still made the manual windows
I got my sister 14. Hatchback. .and I love it.
I have it for 2 years now. And nothing major happens yet..
My fiance has a '11 Kia with the same engine, basically the same car, it just turned over 100k miles, couple of things that drives me nuts is the oil burning and the a/c doesn't get cold when it's idling, other than that it's not too bad of a car, has plenty of room, easy on fuel, and runs good but I prefer my "American" rides lol
I am in a similar situation. I bought a 2015 Chrysler 200 ($15,000) 6 years ago 40,000 miles and now it has 185,000 miles everything runs well no problem.
I dont know about the USA, but here in Europe the Hyundays have very loyal drivers, due to their reliability. I have lots of friends who owned them and keep buying new, just because of their high reliability and sensible price.
I have 2013 hyundai sonata too.. Only thing i do is top the oil every now and then between il change.. Except for that...preety good and stable car
I drove a v6 Kia Sorento, not the GDi, to deliver food for 3 years. It didn’t burn oil, but it couldn’t handle me turning the car on and shutting the engine off so many times. The flywheel was too worn at 192,000 miles for my car to keep going. I got 117,000 working miles out of it because the flywheel broke before the starter did. After the 120,000 mile mark, it absolutely was not worth keeping. It got very expensive after that.
Got my limited for $7900 with 100k. I've put 130k on it and still going. Still getting 35 highway.
I had an oil burning Kia engine. Dealer tried to snow me with some new parts. I fought and they ended up putting a whole new engine in. They are nice at first but turn to trash after that!
Ahh GDi engine’s, the modern Rotary but everyone knows Rotary’s are badass sounding and powerful when tuned properly, well any engine can get that result but Rotary engine’s just sound so awesome
RIP brother.
RIP Scotty. Rev up them engines in the afterlife
I know bro it's so sad.
I am sorry,
If ya do a Google search, it says he is still alive.
I did the same thing when i drove my 94 Celica thru a NEW KIA Dealership....lol
Just came back from a 3,400 mile round trip. No drops burned. 07 Accord
Utah! He should take it on the salt flats for an Italian tune up!
Um, I just saw an article saying scotty died... I'm so confused now.
Link??
Some Pennzoil ultra platinum 5w20 might help with that oil burning. We have a 2014 Optima with same engine and with the Pennzoil its like the oil level is painted on that dipstick. Be sure and use the Ultra- Platinum tho
Rest in peace scotty. Cleaners toyota celica on TH-cam.
hes not dead
!!
I got one of these 2015 Hybrid and it is rocking solid and I did nothing so far but regular maintenance.
How many miles do you have? I am about to purchase a 2014 Hyundai Hybrid with 15,000 miles on it. Trying to gather information on the vehicle
RIP SCOTTY!! REV UP YOUR ENGINES IN HEAVEN !! GOBBLESS.
What was that sound again? Lol...luv it!
I have your favorite car 2011 Dodge caravan. I've been asking a question on every one of your platforms I haven't gotten an answer. My cruise control on my steering wheel sometimes works when I turn it to the right or if I bang on the steering wheel is there a way that I can test it? Cuz I can't get it to work only every once in awhile
I have a Kia Sorento with the same engine, and it too burns some oil. With 5W20 full synthetic it burned ~1qt/1K miles. I switched to 5W30 synthetic blend and now it burns about about 3/4 quart every 2k miles.
RIP SCOTTY I’ll never forget the happiest day of my life, the day I followed your instructions and bought the best production car ever manufactured, my 1999 Toyota Celica GT, I’ve loved that car just like a car because it’s been just like a car to me
Its a good thing hea not dead and will continue to instruct you
He is not dead
Not gone, still with us
@@luckydubefan808 you're damn right. He will always be alive in our hearts.
AMEN
hes not dead!
I have a 2017 Honda Civic with a 2.0 L engine. I've never had any problems I am just creeping around 50,000 miles. And I noticed the car sounds different now when it starts. I believe the starter is just beginning to go out. It doesn't have the natural loud solid Crank that you would get from starting a vehicle. Is it normal for Honda Civic starters to go out around the first 50,000 miles? Should I buy a new starter or keep running it until this one goes out
Lol My first car was a 1964 Chevy Belair that had no trade in value when my Dad got a new car so he sold it to me for a buck. Had north of 100k miles. Used 1 quart oil every 500 miles but engine ran like a top. Eventually lost it to road salt. Had welded the frame a few times til welder said no more. Probably had another 100k miles on it. Had an engine even I could understand and fix.
Damn I wish I still had the old thing.
Get a guy like me, to make sure the car wasn't, flooded, wrecked or stolen... LOL 😂😂
As I shared an email to friends: "I like his no bull sh style, just the facts with some humour included". Best from Montreal.
Rest In Peace Scotty, LLS
My Kia Sportage 1.6d mild hybrid 2 years old 17000 miles drive belt tensioner problem running the engine took 6 months to fix handed it back to the garage.
That mpg sounds too good to be true.
My wife’s Toyota has the 25k free of charge maintenance which entailed two free oil changes with cabin air filter change too. It was free. I would watch them like a hawk when changing the oil and nearly every time try and upsell me crap.
I made an appointment for my daughters 2022 Rav first oil change @ 5,200 miles and they told her that it was not due, to wait 10K miles. First oil change @10k, no way. I went to the dealer bought the Toyota original oil and filter and made the Oil change myself. I was doing this since the car was new but I will change it every 5k and document it on the oil receipt from Toyota. Date, miles etc. Can't rely on no one and there are some things that are better off being done by yourself.
@@mcc7762 a-yup. At 5k, I came in and said “I’d like my oil changed now rather than at 10k.” Service rep said “Ok, this one will count as your 10k.”
No problem, again, me watching them like a hawk doing it the entire time.
@@midiaz1319 huh, odd. My local toyota dealer did it at 5k and 10k and counted it as the 10k and 20k oil change with no issue. Car now has 35k and have been doing my own oil changes AFTER the 10k mark. That was the only time a dealer has ever touched my vehicle outside of warranty work or recalls.
@@midiaz1319 Also, no need to buy the OEM ones from the dealer. Walmart (if you’re in NA) has them for wayyyyy cheaper. I buy the oem filter from walmart and then usually wait for good deals on the oil so it’s both with a discount from the store and manufacturer discount. My last oil change on our 2019 Highlander cost me $28 dollars to do. Full synthetic 0-20w Oil and oem toyo filter.
@@JoeBidenIsAClown I bought in the Toyota dealer since this is still under warranty so the complete oil change I paid at the dealer was $42 doing it myself. For my other Toyotas not in warranty I will buy Mobile One syntetic extended around $40.
So the price at the dealer was not so bad.
For the Honda Civic guy check the grounding wire. It is oddly exposed on the 2015 civics
I can't believe that is in spec. Say someone isnt auto savvy and not adding oil between changes, theyd be bringing in a car that is close to or is bone dry and ready to blow between their scheduled maintenance oil change.
My GF has a 2020 palisade that is burning oil. It has about 50,000 miles. She is on top of her oil changes. She was experiencing a shake at idle/stop. She was driving to the dealership because of it and it stalled on the way there. Incredible that this is found acceptable.
I rented one of those Hyundai Snotrags back in 08 for a long road trip. The worst thing about it was the handling. When I cornered, it felt like the suspension had basketball-sized marshmallows by each tire. Too mushy. Other than that, a rather non-descript car.
The line about the long metal rod didnt require a picture.
Thank you for the video.
RIP SCOTTY 🙏

I just recently became a fan of your page and then today I hear you have passed on ..RIP Scotty , say hello to my dad
Had a 2014 Sonata SE for 9 years, replaced, maintenance items only. Paid $28,000 Canadian $$ tax in in 2014 sold it for $13,800. Tax in. Never had a major issue with it, still ran great at 140,000 kilometers i am in Canada (85,000 miles) purchased a 2023 Genesis G70 , hope i get the same results.
GDI, Gradually Dies Intentionally 😅
In 2021 I purchased a 2012 Sonata Limited with 42,000 miles. Just started watching this channel and was thinking I should dump it for a Camry or Corolla. This video changed my view about that. It’s 2024 and the car has 66,000 miles. Thinking I’ll just care for the car and ride it till it falls apart. Makes for a good commuter car to and from work.
What scanner are you using? Xtool D7?
Pretty sure that your finger turns black if you stick it in any tailpipe. Not an indication for excessive oil burning unless it becomes slimy as he said or when smoke is coming from the exhaust.
So sad to hear about this. TH-cam lost a legend today RIP SCOTTY!
RIP
Rip scotty :'(
where did these rumors come from? he ain't dead
RIP Scotty, Rev your engine in heaven! Your wife will keep you alive.
@@exceededexpectations1953 it's not a rumor bro
Scotty, I have a 2016 Hyundai Accent which I've put 3 alternators, 2 batteries, 2 battery ground link cable......Battery light goes on for a second when accelerating. Checked all fuses. Is there some kind of parasitic drain? Belt is tight, what else can it be? BTW, great channel.
howdy...i know this aint a car question but is engine related,so im planning on getting a motorized bicycle for delivery work (2 stroke) u got any tips about them?
Rev In peace Scotty
Ignore that commercial with that short hoist get you a tall hoist you don't need that.
in 2020 i got a 2011 corolla with 68k miles for either $8k to $10k, ironically i dont remember even though im still making payments. I just hit 77k miles today and the vehicle has not had a single problem. At 75k i did the transmission drain and fill along with the coolant myself. I've also changed the oil myself every 3k miles. It shifts great, gets pretty good gas mileage, ac blows cold, has 0 leaks, and burns 0 oil. I know right now prices are up but even if i was in the market for a car today i would go for a toyota. I dont understand why people will buy a pos just to save a few thousand... it's beyond me.
At 5000 mile intervals at 1 qt per 1000 miles is 5 quarts or about $30, so why change the oil, just keep adding it !
People need to be educated about the difference between "not starting" and "not cranking"
Get rid of it! Mine had spun bearings at 67,000 miles.I changed the oil every 3,000 miles! I'm past the 10 year term with a 2012!
“Yawn-Die” never gets old.
Hey Scotty great content I’ve been watching for years, I was looking into buying a 2013 Hyundai Santa Fe with about 79,000 miles it’s a Sport 2.0T with a 4 cylinder turbo engine. Is the car overall reliable? And, is the engine reliable?
My 2017 Hyundai Elantra is at 178,898 miles
Rest in peace, Scotty. It was great having you on this Earth, telling us all about how to work on cars.

He’s alive. Not sure what you’re talking about
I had a starter fail on my Civic after 10 years Scotty !
Mr. Scotty. I have the same car , and my keys get stuck in the ignition. Do you think it’s a key switch or the shift stick
Great video, I'm gonna be test driving a 2012 Elantra, 79,000 miles, soon. Even though it's a different model will look out for similar issues.
Very great car imo I have 2013 version with 170,000 miles on it runs like I just got it from the dealership very inexpensive to maintain
Ride it until the wheels fall off
I have a 2011 Sonata with the 2.4L. Bought it for $3,000 with 122,000 miles. It has 250,000 miles now. The original engine finally went at 218,000. I put a used engine in for $3,000. Still has the original transmission that operates perfectly. There were times I had to put two or more quarts of oil in the original engine, and it STILL wouldn’t stop running. The only reason I had to put an engine in it was the tip of spark plug #2 had broken off somehow and put a hole in the piston. These are great cars. I’ll get another one when I drive the wheels off of this one.
I have a 2.5 altima coupe 165k miles, what are your thoughts on it. I want to keep it but I'm worried that it won't last a long time. I worried that it'll break down on me.
