Engine Mechanical problem
2003 Hyundai Santa Fe 6 cyl All Wheel Drive Automatic 72000 miles

It does sound like a lifter. As far as the oil filter, any name brand filter is fine to use. They won't restrict oil flow. I looked up the recommend oil. If you have the 2.7 and it is from an 2003, mitchelle online lists 10W30.
