I've performed the last 4 oil changes on my Venue for the same reason really, wanting the oil changed at 600 miles and then every 3k. 26350-2M000 should be available at oreilly it is near me. I pay less at the Hyundai dealership so. Can you send over a photo of what you're meaning the plastic thing. Only thing I can really think of is the piece that sticks through the housing to lock the filter into place it also has a plastic push/lock pin.
oil change on new venue
Hi guys, I have a question. The dealer told me they have free oil change for 3 years on my new venue. but when I change the oil for the first time on new cars, I like to change very early. the first 1K miles. I am sure the Dealer doesn't want to change it so soon but I always do it as there is always small metal shavings in every new motor. So I bought two oil filters for the venue. Had to go to the dealer parts because there is no oil filter available in any car parts store! I thought this is strange. When I examined the filter, I see there is a 1 inch small plastic thingy sticking out from the screw side of the filter.
It looks like it will protrude into the engine when screwed in to the motor?? Does anyone know anything about this? I really don't want to start the oil change with out knowing what this is and how it works?

Ryan9201, Thanks, that was the thing I was talking about. I went ahead and took the filter housing cover off and I saw how it fits together. I changed it without any trouble then completed the oil change. Never saw anything like this before. Best I can figure, it is a device to make sure you only use only Hyundai filters. I dont see any reason for that plastic tab. I will check Oreilly to see if they have them down here in florida. I tried Napa and one other and they didn't even a number for 2020 or 2021 Venue oil filter.
Same can’t find any oil filter in ct warlmart
you can u-tube an oil change for a Venue and you'll see the piece hinging down is for draining the oil from the filter before removing it and it'll make a less messy job...there's a pin you pull out with a pair of needle nose pliers and then turn the piece the pin was holding and it opens up where the oil will drain from...when you see it on u-tube it'll all come clear.Ryan9201, Thanks, that was the thing I was talking about.

oil filter, what torque should be when changing?
on the plastic glass of the oil filter is indicated 35 newton meters
If you knew the answer why did you ask?on the plastic glass of the oil filter is indicated 35
The Hyundai service manual says 34.3 newton meters, pretty near 35.
I was not sure, 35 seems to be too much for plastic
Must be safe for the plastic...that's the specification.I was not sure, 35 seems to be too much for plastic
In general, with every unscrewing, twisting, it feels like it will crack. Why did the manufacturer not initially make the good old iron filterMust be safe for the plastic...that's the specification.
I've never torqued filters or oil drain plugs for more than 50 years...I've always cautioned on the not too tight side and once I've got them fastened snugly I have a small 6 inch ratchet wrench that I use with the socket and filter tool and then tighten them using one hand and of just using wrist action to what I think is tight enough...neither have to really be over tightened and once I've done the change I fire up the engine and let it run for about a minute and check for any leaking and have never had a leak in all those years...the biggest thing with the filter is that the old seal has been removed so the new seal can be seated and you can almost get away with tightening the filter only by hand especially if you have enough room...I've had some engines where the filter area was such that you didn't have the room to get a good hand hold on the filter for tightening by hand.
Would be better it it was metal but I haven't heard of any reports of the plastic assembly breaking.In general, with every unscrewing, twisting, it feels like it will crack. Why did the manufacturer not initially make the good old iron filter
Unfortunately, this plastic cup does not spin freely, only with the help of a key you have to twist it with your hand until it stopsI've never torqued filters or oil drain plugs for more than 50 years...I've always cautioned on the not too tight side and once I've got them fastened snugly I have a small 6 inch ratchet wrench that I use with the socket and filter tool and then tighten them using one hand and of just using wrist action to what I think is tight enough...neither have to really be over tightened and once I've done the change I fire up the engine and let it run for about a minute and check for any leaking and have never had a leak in all those years...the biggest thing with the filter is that the old seal has been removed so the new seal can be seated and you can almost get away with tightening the filter only by hand especially if you have enough room...I've had some engines where the filter area was such that you didn't have the room to get a good hand hold on the filter for tightening by hand.
it's probably plastic because when they started putting the filters on top of the engines I suspect they figured it was better to be plastic for that application and I'm sure our under the engine filter location uses the same filter as those they have on top of the engineWould be better it it was metal but I haven't heard of any reports of the plastic assembly breaking.

Not sure if you are aware, the filter on the Venue is a different animal. it is the filter housing that is being tightened to the specified torque, the filter media is inserted into the housing.
Mercedes has been using a similar filter design for a while. For the Mercedes filters, they make a tool to unscrew the filter cap, but general consensus for installing the cap is to clean up the threads, install new o-rings, and tighten the cap by hand until you feel it fully seat.
