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??

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.
Yea it will slow the flow creating more pressure. Which is what LP is going on about.

Pressure is the result of LESS flow.  It doesn't cause more flow.
I agree with that.

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

Tight clearances = more surface area = more shear friction = more heat

Oil is mostly there to transport heat, so tight engines require 7 quarts of 0 weight.

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.

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?

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.

I don't know why, I'm not an engineer, i can only guess that it somehow affects oil return or something.

All I know is that oil filters can cause a low pressure event for the system which can starve the entire thing of oil, I do not know completely why, just is.

More importantly, "everywhere" is all at the same pressure behind the pump...unless you have static/dynamic pressure effects going on where the ports split off the main inlet.

Maybe Kias use some crazy M C Escher type lubrication system?

That's not how pressure and flow work.  The pump doesn't provide pressure.  It provides dlow.  Pressure is the resistance to that flow, caused by the tight passages and restrictions in the engine.  The pump has to be able to provide flow, despite the back pressure.

Good heads up; if the OEM filters are easy to find and of good quality; it is good to use those.

Raising system pressure like that could only result from reducing flow throughout the entire engine, providing less oil everywhere.  That's not how it works.

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.

The engineering needs to be done on the front end with consumer products like that Forte to prevent issues..
