Hyundai · Canada · Maintenance schedule

What does your Hyundai need at every service?

Hyundai models sold in Canada follow their own fixed schedule: gas and hybrid models have a visit every 8,000 km or 6 months, and electric models every 12,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first. Pick your model to see, service by service and year by year, what is replaced, inspected, serviced, lubricated and added, plus the owner checks between visits and the fluids each model uses.

    How Hyundai maintenance works in Canada

    Hyundai Canada uses its own maintenance schedule, which is not the same as the US one. Gas and hybrid models have a scheduled visit every 8,000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first, with an engine oil and filter change each time. Electric Ioniq and Kona Electric models have a visit every 12,000 km or 12 months.

    The Canadian tables also use more job types than the US ones: Replace, Inspect, Service, Lubricate and Add. This page lays out every visit for each current Canadian Hyundai model.

    Replace, inspect, service, lubricate and add

    • Replace: the part or fluid is renewed at that visit.
    • Inspect: the item is checked and adjusted, cleaned or replaced only if needed.
    • Service: the item is serviced, for example brakes cleaned and adjusted.
    • Lubricate: latches, hinges and locks are lubricated.
    • Add: a bottle of fuel injector cleaner is added if TOP TIER detergent gasoline is not available.

    Why visits are every 6 months

    The Canadian schedule is built around Canadian driving conditions and sets an oil change every 8,000 km or 6 months on gas and hybrid models, so the year-by-year table has two visits per year.
