    Carplay Update & 1st Impressions

    As a frequent early adopter, I took the plunge and downloaded the upgrade for my 2015 5.0. I popped the existing SD card into my reader, hit up the MyHyundai site and began the download of the 9.7GB installation. Of my 100Mb connection, I was capped at about 24Mb for the download. The tool...

    What is the most reliable 1st generation Genesis?

    Hello, I'm currently looking into possibly purchasing a used certified pre-owned 1st generation Genesis and was wondering which year is considered the most reliable? I'm leaning towards the 2014 V6 Genesis for the two following reasons: 1. It's the last 1st generation Genesis (which likely...

    1st oil change on our 14' RSPEC

    So the car just turned 4k miles and I want to get the oil and filter changed this weekend. I plan to use just dinosaur oil (if the car did not originally come with synthetic oil.) I don't have the car here with me to look in the owners manual. Should I go get a factory oil filter to cover my...

    1st post - question about ACC sensor

    Just traded my Lexus IS350 yesterday for a 3.8 Genesis sedan with ultimate package. I noticed that the adaptive cruise control sensor has something that resembles adhesive on it. Upon closer inspection I noticed that it didn't appear to rub off. I asked the dealer and they said they were all...

    No idea what it will bring, but it has the advertisement for it right on the front page. Expect to pay some cash for it I suspect. http://www.mapnsoft.com/hyundai/

    Trunk light replacement (1st generation)

    Gang - (2011 Genesis Sedan) I want to update my trunk lights to LEDs. I removed one of the lamp assemblies but I cannot disassemble it to get at the bulb. I've worked on it a lot and pried & squeezed as hard as I dare. It appears there is an holder assembly (black) that drops into a plastic...

    1st 2015's on Carmax

    1st generation to 2nd generation

    I read a lot over in the "Price Paid" thread, I see a lot of member switch from the 2012 model to 2015 model, just wonder why some folks would take a big hit of depreciation on 2012 model to trade in on a 2015 model.

    Bluetooth Streaming Solution for 1st Gen Genesis

    I have a '09 Genesis 4.6 Tech and of course, it doesn't stream audio via Bluetooth A2DP. I purchased the iPod cable from Hyundai and then recently connected a CoolStream Duo converter to that. The Coolstream Duo takes the audio and its power through the 30 pin iPod connector and unlike my...

    Will the 2015 revised seat fit into the 2013 1st Generation Genesis?

    This is just a general question which will take someone who knows the bolt pattern, and the floor pan layout on the 1st Gen vs the 2nd Gen. Genesis. The controls for the 2013 Rspec are exactly like the 2015 with the exception of the power bolster control. Thus the harnness to power the seat...

    Retrofit motorized trunk in a 1st gen

    Once parts start becoming available for the 2015 (or I find a totaled '15) it will be my next project. The wiring harness appears to be there on my 2013 (pull back the trunk liner and look for orange capped plug). Switch looks the same as the Korea. 2013 motorized trunk. I realize I probably...

    1st long distance trip

The Genny hasn't seen any long trips since we bought it back in March, We loaded her up, filled her up @ $65.00, cruised at an average of 67.4 MPH and in return, she gave us 525 miles on 1...

    Thoughts on moving from 1st to 2nd gen. sedan

    I'll preface this post by saying that I usually keep my cars at least eight years. I was planning to do the same with my '11 Genesis 4.6, which has only around 40k miles on it and is in great condition. However, the recent weather here in the South and the advent of several significant new...

    2015 Genesis: When will 1st availaibilty be?

    I have had various sources say that the 1st 2015 Genesis will be at the dealers by April 2014. My question to the forum is -- Does anyone have a reliable date when the 2015 Genesis will be at the dealer available for purchase? I assumed that this date would be approximately April +/- based on...
