Sounds fine. Check compression on it.

it might be hard to hear since i had my phone far away from the car i can record while having my phone right next to the engine

Definitely burns oil; how is the oil in your sump looking?

#

Also, any lights on the dash? If so maybe hit up a reader

you can tell if a car burns oil just from the sound?

I don’t think a stock Santa Fe sounds like that so I am gonna assume something is wrong on the turbo side though. I did find this video that may be related.

if yall need i can put my phone closer to the exhaust so you can see the smoke more clearly

#

and abt the coolant thing

#

like 3 days ago i checked it was at level but the next day i checked the tank was empty

#

i filled it up again now its at level again but idk where does it dissapear

#

the head gasket was changed like 1k miles ago

#

i also drove the car on ramps but couldnt find anything leaking

#

oh and when i took off the engine cover plate i saw that the 4th fuel injector had oil on top of it

#

and there is some kind of connector that connects to the turbo but when its plugged in the car keeps choking and does not want to drive

and the turbo whistle was never there before
