How to change engine oil on a Hyundai Santa Fe? This is a simple operation if you follow the correct steps. Lift the car on a column lift or jack, after removing the cover panel, unscrew the oil sump bolt using a socket wrench, allow the fluid to drain into a disposal container, and re-tighten the oil sump bolt and the oil filter.

Lower the vehicle and lift the bonnet, securing it. Finally, top up with the new fluid. Measure the oil level several times with the dipstick until the ideal measurement is reached.
