Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0T & 3.8L Engine Oil Viscosity Chart (SAE 5W-30/5W-40)
Owner's manual oil viscosity chart mapping SAE grades to ambient temperature ranges
This document is an engine oil viscosity chart (owner's-manual style) titled "Temperature Range for SAE Viscosity Numbers." It presents a temperature scale in both Celsius (-30 to 50°C) and Fahrenheit (-10 to 120°F) and shows recommended SAE oil viscosity grades for two gasoline engines. For the 2.0 TCI (turbocharged) gasoline engine, SAE 5W-30 and 5W-40 oils are shown as suitable across the full displayed temperature range. For the 3.8L gasoline engine, two bars are shown: 10W-30 for moderate-to-hot temperatures (roughly -15°C and above) and 5W-30 across the entire temperature range. A footnote for the 3.8L engine states that SAE 5W-30 meeting API SM / ILSAC GF-4 / ACEA A5 specifications is recommended for better fuel economy, and that if this oil is unavailable in the buyer's country, the proper oil should be selected using the viscosity chart. An American Petroleum Institute "Certified for Gasoline Engines" starburst seal appears at the bottom right. The engine lineup (2.0 TCI and 3.8L) corresponds to the Hyundai Genesis Coupe. The chart itself contains no explicit year, make, or model text; the year attribution (2013-2014) comes from the upload filename.

Frequently asked questions
- What oil viscosity is recommended for the Genesis Coupe 2.0 TCI (turbo) engine?
- The chart shows SAE 5W-30 or 5W-40 gasoline engine oil for the 2.0 TCI engine across the full temperature range shown (-30°C to 50°C / -10°F to 120°F).
- What oil viscosity is recommended for the 3.8L engine?
- The chart shows SAE 5W-30 across the full temperature range, or 10W-30 for warmer temperatures (roughly -15°C and above). The footnote recommends SAE 5W-30 for better fuel economy.
- What oil specifications should the 5W-30 oil meet for the 3.8L engine?
- The footnote specifies SAE 5W-30 meeting API SM / ILSAC GF-4 / ACEA A5 specifications.
- What if the recommended 5W-30 oil is not available in my country?
- The footnote states that if the recommended oil is not available in your country, you should select the proper engine oil using the engine oil viscosity chart.
- What temperature range does the viscosity chart cover?
- The chart covers approximately -30°C to 50°C (about -10°F to 120°F).
