P2562 on Hyundai
Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor 'A' Circuit
P2562 on Hyundai vehicles indicates turbocharger boost control position sensor 'a' circuit. Au7o has documented this code across 1 Hyundai model — most commonly on Santa Fe. A generic circuit fault for the turbocharger boost control (wastegate/VGT vane) position sensor 'A'. The PCM uses this sensor to confirm the boost-control actuator position; this code sets when the sensor signal is faulty (open/short/no signal). Typical repair costs on Hyundai range from $250 to $2,400, depending on the specific model and root cause.
Common Causes of P2562
- •Faulty turbo boost control position sensor
- •Open or shorted sensor wiring
- •Corroded/damaged connector at the turbo
- •Sticking/binding VGT vanes or wastegate actuator
- •Loss of reference voltage or ground

- 2.0T Theta II Turbocharger Oil Feed Hose Leak and Turbo Bearing Failure2013-2020
The 2.0L Theta II turbo (G4KH) in the Santa Fe Sport uses a banjo-bolted oil feed hose to the turbocharger center section. The hose assembly and its sealing washers leak, and heat-soak after shutdown cokes the oil inside the small-diameter feed line, restricting flow to the turbo bearing. Owners report oil pooling on the turbo housing and burning smell first, then turbo shaft-bearing noise (whine/whistle), smoke, and loss of boost. Hyundai issued service campaign/TSB 16-01-071 in December 2016 covering 2013-2016 Santa Fe Sport 2.0T for a leaking turbo oil feed hose assembly. Because the same engine is a known oil consumer, a low crankcase level compounds the starvation.
