driving

Hi all, I had a little fun this weekend and thought I'd pass along my experience as well as get others to chime in on theirs. Here's the situation. 2012 R Spec. Conti Extreme Contact DW tires w/ 1500 miles on them. About 10 miles of twistey mountain road with no one in front of me. :D I was...

as you all know, you cant turn on the driving lights unless the headlights are on. Has anyone bypassed this so you can have driving lights on with just the parking lights? I always liked the look.

Drove the Genesis R-Spec in the snow this morning. It actually handled better than I thought it would. I actually passed some other cars on the way in to work. Ended up being at work by myself while I waited for others to show up. Everyone asked me if the Genesis had AWD, I told them that it...

Has any one have any idea about the mile I got driving to Las Vegas from L.A. I have the 2012 Genesis 4.6 and recently got 22.2 mpg on a recent trip from L.A. to Las Vegas. There where 3 people and a fully loaded trunk. The speed was averaging 80 Mph for haft the trip or so. Had some stop...

I just learned that new drivers are now being taught to hold their hands on their steering wheel at the 8 and 4 positions. That's why many steering wheels have hand holds at those positions. How do you drive?

Hi,I have a 2011 Gen 4.6...Am I missing it? Why dont I have daytime driving lights? I thought it was the law? thanks

Hi all, I am REALLY close to purchasing a 2009 Genesis 3.8, after driving the car I have been really impressed. I drove the G37, IS 250, TL, CTS and a couple other but this car impressed me the most. My problem is this; I live in a really hilly area (plus a steep driveway) and was going to...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aNM9nmtDkkE Although we wish never to use any SRS device, its nice to know that the Genesis is chock full of safety features, which puts my family and me at ease driving it. ....which I was unable to say about my 2004 BMW 745i, which at a offset frontal impact at...

Hey everytime I try to drive up my drive way (which is steep), my back tires seem to get stuck and just roll in place when i tap on the gas. Of course I do this all cautiously and I try to drive up from an angle cause I don't want to scrape my car which always hurts. Does anyone else get this...

Hello, This morning I only had two hours sleep so i drove with my emergency brake on for a little past my mail box down the street until my car beeped alerting me I left it on. Does the genesis have a thing where it will turn off when driving or was the actual brake still being used? I...

Long story short, I'm buying a new Genesis 3.8 and giving my car to my mom in LA. I have to drive the brand new car from LA to the bay area after picking it up from the lot. Any advice on avoiding small rock dings or such on the 5 while driving up. Is it ok to drive the new car off the bat...

I happened to be leading my dad (driving my '08 Azera Ultimate) in his new Equus Ultimate this past week and noticed that when he used his turn signal, the corresponding head-light (DRL, I suppose actually) would go out. Is that the intended/expected behavior? :confused:

while window crap is being addressed all and all, not a bad car but defiantly not a Genesis can't wait to get my car back

After being caught in the snow today, I spent more time analyzing the ESC. I drove the car both with and without the ESC off. Although the ESC light flashes even when it is turned off, it is NOT the computer synchronized ESC which controls ABS, Traction control and power to the drive wheels. The...

Hey all, I've had this happen twice now on my 09 3.8 Sedan. After driving in heavy snow I will get a burning/melting rubber smell. First time it was the day after driving for about an hour in a snowy/icy storm on the highway (last monday night in chicago for you chi-town folks). The next day I...

Drove about 20 miles from dealer and car is durty already. Got simonize protection thrown in, does anyone know if this helps keep the car clean on black and sapphire blue cars? What other products are you using?

Bought a 3,8 2009 sedan, tech pce, platinum/saddle and it's on its way from the Usa to the Netherlands where I live. Am driving an Azera, called "Grandeur" in Europe. Only +/- 70 sold in Holland (17 milj. inhabitans) so it is not for sale any longer. By the end of the year it is said that 999...

I was watching this video about the 2010 Genesis and I noticed a couple of features they removed before it hit the production line that the guy was talking about...or at least they are not on mine that I'm aware of. Is this stuff available in the 4.6L but not the 3.8L?.... It definitely...

its been hot , oh about 85-90 the Genesis was out side. We just ran to the store and I open the compartment on the console for where the lighter is ( I keep stuff in there ) and it was hot to the touch. the entire console felt hot. I have never noticed this before . Have just under three...

I haven't driven a manual in 10 years and want to get a nice RWD sporty car. I drove the Genesis Coupe, the 6 cylinder one with stick and shifting felt like an old truck getting into gears. I also test drove Miata and a used S2000 where the manuals in those are butter smooth. I started...
