Quoted: Lol, no. View Quote I don't know what to tell you. I'm one of the lead electrical people here anyway. The lead mechanical guru could explain it better than I ever could anyway. All I know is that Hyundai does some stuff strangly, and aftermarket filters have a history of fucking our shit up and I sometimes I don't have the time to look up every single detail why. I do the occasionals short black or engine replacement but most the time I am doing things like rebuilding a steering album, Diagnosing a sensor or can line communication failure, Other weird customer concerns or sun roof issues, I get all the weird issues so all the Flats are not burdened with it, only one of them can do all the stuff I can as well any way and that is said lead guru who is not quite twice my age. |

The factory recommended filters are not expensive or difficult to find/buy.
I've used nothing buy Hyundai recommended filters (I stop by the Hyundai place every couple of years and buy a couple) and Mobil 1 oil in my Coupe. Ten years, 73,000 miles, no issues. Most people just don't care about their cars. Gonna buy/lease them for a few years and then get rid of them and get another little car to drive. Don't care about curb rash on the wheels, don't care about parking lot door dings, don't care about cigarette ash burn holes in the seats, etc., etc., etc. If they get the oil/filter changed they probably take the car to a local oil/filter change shop and who know what they buy? The cheapest filters/oil they can get - to raise profit margins?? |

Quoted: I agree with that. OP is saying the filters are less restrictive, increasing flow and decreasing pressure. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: It makes no difference. The oil has to flow through it all. A restriction at any point will slow it down. Besides, the filter can't be at the end, because oil just drains back to the pan after it's run it's course. Pressure is the result of LESS flow. It doesn't cause more flow. OP is saying the filters are less restrictive, increasing flow and decreasing pressure. Correct, and that is GOOD for the motor, not bad. The filter is between the motor and the pump. Higher pressure between the filter and the pump would mean that less oil is getting to the motor, which would be bad. OP is saying that there is not enough pressure between the filter and pump, which makes no sense. |

I believe it's an issue of the burst pressure on Kia filters being higher than the aftermarket filters, the aftermarket filters balloon out and fail because of pressure spikes in the oil system, also has to do with changing viscosity of oil used in these engines to a "wrong" viscosity

Quoted: If it's only an issue with one company's filters and everyone else's work alright, then I'd say you're wrong. It's an engineering issue with whoever designed the offending filters.

I'm guessing there is a problem with leak down and subsequent oil starvation, probably worse on cold start. It's an age old problem related to oil filter construction and the internal check valve. We had the same thing at GM many years ago. My Nissan VG30E will clatter on cold start if I don't use Nissan filters.

Quoted: Oil filter not cuasing enough restriction We use the filter itself to raise pressure, very old school. View Quote The only way that happens is with the use of a bypass filter... which is not something any passenger car OEM I'm aware of, uses. This sounds like your typical full-flow filter that either has an absolute rating too low for a given application, or their bypass valve is not opening at certain conditions, resulting in a large pressure drop. Pressure always drops after a restriction. |

I'm just trying to understand how a oil filter raises oil pressure is a good thing
When you oil an engine it leaks out everywhere. It leaks out of the main and rod bearings it leaks out of the cam bearings.. i mean have you ever seen an oil return hole inside an engine (not drain holes) that pressurized oil is fed to then returned to the oil pan after its used? Lol Where do you put the filter at the end of a system that bleeds out everywhere to raise the system pressure? |

My Nissan VG30E will clatter on cold start if I don't use Nissan filters. View Quote The guy who mentioned oil pump pressures exceeding the cheap filter rating & breaking shit internally (such as a check valve, depending on its design) seems more likely than this "squeezing oil through the engine between the pump and filter" thing. That or the oil passages are designed so poorly that increased oil velocity due to wimp-ass filter flowing past a port causes its static pressure to drop & stop flowing (Bernoulli principle or Pitot tube effect), starving that area of the engine of oil. That's definitely a Kia problem, though. |

Eventually this is only going to matter so much anyway, Dealer management is inquiring on when the training centres gonna be open again because of all the Coming electric vehicle models and I would be one of the 1st people going to get training on it |

Good heads up; if the OEM filters are easy to find and of good quality; it is good to use those.
The oil flow picture don't look quite right; but that could easily be an error on my side. What looks odd is the far right side diagram - return line location/connection |

Quoted: A more restrictive oil filter will do that, I understand that. But manufacturers need to accommodate the use of any off the shelf product that is available. Knucklehead counter jockey at O'Reilly's won't care if he even knows enough to care. The engineering needs to be done on the front end with consumer products like that Forte to prevent issues.. Having been in manufacturing for most of my life, you have to anticipate idiots being idiots. I am not shitting on you or Kia. A less restrictive oil filter shouldn't be an issue, but it it is. View Quote You're saying that OEMs should make their engines to work with aftermarket filters? That's some backwards ass logic. Aftermarket manufacturers should make their filters to meet OEM specs before they list them as compatible |

Kia can't accept certain oil filters without destroying it's engine. Meanwhile, not only does Toyota have no issues with oil filters many of their midsize trucks have the filter mounted conveniently on the top of the engine. That's quality.
