As with any insurance or warranty, you need to read the fine print rather than assume. At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is the actual wording in your coverage.I am purchasing from CarMax and I know their MaxCare warranty typically covers mods which came with the car so they would have to prove I did the mods I assume?
My 340i had a modified front end which wasn’t installed correctly and killed both headlights from moisture getting into the light casings and they covered it no questions asked.
Didn’t even charge me the deductible.
good point I'll definitely give them a call before I make any purchases.If you want to be safe, I'd call a dealer and speak to their service manager about Genesis/Hyundai's stated position on mod's. I don't know if it's written in any of the documentation we get. I would also ask about any specific mod's you had in mind and if the dealer has any discretion.
I come from an Audi background. Audi had clear guidance for dealers with wide ranging restrictions on mods. They were required to add a flag to the VIN if any restricted mods were found and this "TD1 flag" would stay with the car. Lot's of guy's had warranty work excluded. Some dealers however were mod friendly and would make certain exceptions.
The idea that an intake or exhaust mod might not be related to a particular engine issue would make no difference...warranty denied. Given the potential for expensive warranty work to be denied, I would not just rely on a few forum comments.
Hello GenesisOwners!
I came into my Genesis last August with 100K miles on her and she's a blast. As with all my vehicles I try and get a hold of the service manual so I can work on them with a semblance of knowing what I'm doing. Combing through these forums I found some dead links for the 2009/2010 service manual. I was wondering if anyone had been lucky enough to grab a copy of it while it was available and could send me/post the manual again? I looked through the 2009 manual that OneFunGenesis posted to his dropbox but I fear that the differences between the 2009 and 2010 are too much. I'm specifically trying to do some electrical work. Much appreciated fellers

Go back through this forum and you will see where all of them have been shared.i have been searching for the 2009 manual forever! have you got one more in your hat? [email protected]
Hello, hoping you can hook me up with a 2012 4.6 manual. Much appreciated. [email protected]If you send me a message or email with your email address I can arrange for a 2010 4.6 service manual to magically appear.
Yep, nobody actually reads this thread...Hello, hoping you can hook me up with a 2012 4.6 manual. Much appreciated. [email protected]
Just got a call and email with video showing issues. The video shows the voltage measured at the electrical connections to be as expected in the service manual. They are quoting him $8,000 to replace the "MOTOR DRIVEN POWER STEERING MODULE". The car is only worth $9000 sold to an individual in great condition, and much less if traded in. It doesn't make sense to replace the steering module at this price.My first stab at it would be to disconnect the electrical connections related to the unit and inspect for corrosion. Clean them up with some de-ox spray and maybe put a little dielectric grease on the seals on the connectors and then re-mate them. See if that makes any difference with the issue. Are the under-covers still installed? I've heard of problems developing with the steering when the undercover is left off.
Not enough informationHad the AC running yesterday and halfway home the temp gauge started climbing.
I turned the AC off and the gauge went down to just above normal.
Popped the hood at home and fan was running and no hissing leaking sounds
Any thoughts/advice?
