Your engine will simply NOT run correctly with cheap oil change center engine oil. Your engine was DESIGNED to use only synthetic engine oil meeting the Kia/Hyundai specifications. THe right engine oil will have the NAMES KIA and HYUNDAI on the label. Your problem right now is that your IAC valve and throttle body are covered in sludgy engine vapors made by the cheap oils you have been using. Clean your IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE and throttle body with SEAFOAM and Gumout spray. These things regulate fuel/air mixture at low engine speeds and affect idle and MPG's and even shift points. Once cleaned, things will return to normal for you. GOOD LUCK, and install a set of DENSO TIWN TIP or Iridium spark plugs in there. This will give BEST power and performance. GOOD LUCK!
