Most of you probably are not into changing your own oil and filter especially since the service is "free", but for the few that may have an interest, Ecogard has the S11830 filter which is a replacement for the Hyundai model number. I've never seen a filter with the extra parts. O ring and crush washer yes, but this filter has two additional components - a plastic cotter pin and a plastic oil filter cap plug.

Clemson, assuming the Oil Filter Cap Plug (I think also called the "Pindle") is used for draining the oil from the Filter Cap before removal, do you know how the "Pindle" is positioned to allow the oil to drain? After removing the pin, do you just push up on it?Most of you probably are not into changing your own oil and filter especially since the service is "free", but for the few that may have an interest, Ecogard has the S11830 filter which is a replacement for the Hyundai model number.

I uploaded a video of an oil change for a 2021 Kia K5 which is awaiting moderator "approval" - not sure what that means! The k5 uses the same filter and it has the same turbo engine as the Tucson. The video shows clearly the positioning of the Cap Plug. It's parallel to the filter housing. Once the cotter pin is removed the cap plug is twisted counter-clockwise and it readily comes out.
Thanks for the info. Most of the Parts Dept at Kia dealerships in my area sell the OEM version (Part#: 26350-2m000) for around $10. The Ecogard version on Amazon sells for around $16. Have you noticed a quality difference between the two?
I can't make a judgment yet because my Tucson is not expected to arrive at the dealership until July 2nd. I just purchased 4 OEM filters on eBay for $30.00 and free shipping. I plan on sticking with OEM at least during the warranty period. The risk of there being a problem is very low but why take the chance?
Just bought an original one today, it's: HY263502M000-Service Kit-Oil Filter 26320A
Correct. That's the part number. Alternatives may not contain the large O-ring for the filter cartridge and the "pindle" you use to drain the cartridge before you unscrew it. FYI -- Looked it up in the manual and both the filter cartridge and the drain plug require 25 ft. lbs. torque to tighten. I wish Hyundai would have gone to a screw-on filter and, like Subaru, put the filter on top in the engine compartment. Not sure why they stick with the cartridges. Any ideas?
