I haven't read the 229.5 spec, so I don't know what it says. I suspect it specifies certain characteristics needed for long drain intervals. You might be fine running the Hyundai stuff and changing it more frequently, however this is in the realm of experimentation. If you're willing to take the chance of experimenting on your engine, I for one would be interested to see what happens.
