Your 2010
Hyundai Elantra
needs a little over 4.2 quarts of oil. That being said, you may not save too much money by changing your oil yourself.
Plenty of companies offer oil changes for economy-class cars for $25 (sometimes less!), so by the time you purchase the oil and air filter, you’ll end up paying extra—at least in the short run.
If you’re debating whether to take your car to a shop or change the oil yourself, consider these strategies to save money:
  • Don’t get your oil changed every 3,000 miles. Check your owner’s manual for how long your vehicle can actually go between changes.
  • Look for oil change coupons online on in your local newspaper
  • Don’t get your oil changed at a dealership—they usually charge more for smaller services.
