High mileage Genesis 2015 3.8

[tbently]

I have 77,000 miles on my car with no issues. I do maintain regularly. Wondering if others have high mileage. I would like to keep this car.

I just cracked 76k w/ my 5.0 Ultimate. It runs like the proverbial train... Most of my problems have been minor electrical hiccups, which were remedied by reinserting fuses (A/C) or by simply restarting the car (HVAC tried to roast me w/ heat once on the driver's side). I do have a leaking O ring @ the trans warmer which I need to address soon though - but it took 2000 mi worth of road trip to notice any sort of drop in coolant level.

Mine (2015 5.0) has 77K and has a number of small issues, none of which I would spend money on: creaky sunroof, deteriorating plastic trim pieces here and there, clearcoat at the top of the headlights disappearing, and flutter at 28-35 mph.

Other than that it runs really nicely. My left hand cylinder bank makes more noise at idle than the right hand cylinder bank. I suppose (?) it's a hydraulic lifter not working properly, but I haven't confirmed the noise is still present with a warmed up engine. I would not know if I had any fluids leaking but the dealership says nothing is leaking.

I’ve got 78,000 miles on my 5.0 and still love it like the day I bought it. Had some minor issues over the years but I to take it regularly for proscribed maintenance. I don’t see a car out there worth trading mine in for. I’m going to keep it until it dies.

Actually, I just confirmed that both banks sound the same when the engine is warmed. She purrs like a cat at idle. Lovely.

What type of gas do you burn? I strictly use super unleaded and only buy gas at Mobil’s or Exxon.

Pretty much the high octane stuff and every 2 thousand miles I chuck in a can of Techron.

Always premium... But make sure to use Top Tier every couple of tanks.

Mine have ~110k runs great, I only cleaned the valves from the carbon deposit which cost me $149 at the dealership
And yes that flutter noise I had that for a while I just ignore it. Doesn't seem to hurt

78K here. Only problems I have had were the sunroof and flutter noise. The flutter noise was fixed by replacing drive shaft and fixed sunroof myself. I only change the oil. Haven’t brought it in for maintenance in 20K miles.
