    Fuel warning from manual:

    Fueling warning from manual. Make sure you "Do not top off after nozzle automatically shuts off when refueling." Just read this in the manual and thought I should post this. I am a bit anal regarding rounding off to the nearest dollar. :D

    Fuel Grade

    What fuel are you all using in your 2015 Genesis V6 and V8? I have a 2015 V8 and using regular gas 89 octane. Also is anyone using fuel additives such as Seafoam?

    Uneven gaps in fuel door, complain or accept?

    I recently bought a new 2013 Genesis 3.8. I noticed that the gaps in the fuel door are uneven as shown. "Par for the course" and accept, or complain to dealer? Doesn't really seem like an easy adjustment and its not a big deal to me. Just checking what others think. All in all, I'm...

    Fuel pump doesnt prime

    I have a 3.8 2012 and I have noticed recently that it is hard to start after if has been sitting for a few hours. With the key on engine off and the clutch in I dont hear the fuel pump priming. But it will start once I crank it over. I think the fuel pressure bleeds down after sitting and takes...

    Engine Oil and Fuel Additive?

    I just bought a used 2012 3.8 sedan base with 30k miles. The salesman told me to change the oil every 3k miles but no one really does that anymore. I believe the manual says 7500. Anyhow, what kind of engine oil should I use - synth or conventional? Is it 10w30 or 5w20? Also, the manual...

    Annoying fuel cap flap

    Well, anybody else having this issue? SO far everytime we get snow or freezing rain, and I need gas, the cheap plastic flap covering the fuel cap will NOT OPEN. You push the release, you hear the thunk (an the door won't open). BAD design flaw I'm going to have to complain to the Genesis...

    Squealing fuel injectors?

    Has anyone experienced a squeal just after start-up for 10 seconds or so that sounds remarkably like a belt? Dealership service department told me it was perfectly normal fuel injector noise. I'm dubious.

    Fuel pump needed replaced at 55k miles

    Had to have the car (2009 4.6 w/ tech) towed to the dealer last night after it stalled on the highway and wouldn't move much at all. I was thinking maybe a alternator / battery issue beings i haven't replaced the battery yet, but the dealer called this morning and said it was a bad fuel pump and...

    Asymmetric fuel pump noise

    I drive a 2013 R-spec and have noticed that the right (passenger side) high pressure fuel pump is somewhat louder than the one on the left. You can actually feel the vibration in the high pressure fuel line, but, I don't notice the same vibration at idle on the left one. I viewed the video...

    What is the general consensus on fuel injection service?

    I took my 09 Gennie 4.6 for an oil change at the dealer. The service manager recommended fuel injector service. The Gennie has 72K miles. I was told that this type of service is not necessary because modern fuels have detergents that keep things clean. The car is responsive and I notice no lag...

    CR dings fuel system: Why???

    I was looking at Consumer Reports to see what the perspective of reliability is on my Genesis and saw a low rating about the fuel system. Does anyone here have thoughts on why consumers think this is a problem? I think I can understand with my V6 that the performance may be viewed as "lacking"...

    High pressure fuel pump noise

    I have a new 2012 genesis sedan. My fuel pump us making a loud clicking sound. My dealer says that this normal due to the pump being under 12000psi of pressure does any one else have this issue with their car?

    Fuel Injector Failure

    The check engine light on my 2012 3.6 base genesis kept coming on and flashing. Each time I would bring the car in, the dealer said that there was cylinder misfires, but could not figure out the reason for these. First visit they reset the codes and said bring it back in if it happens again...

    Fuel Filter Change: step by step

    I finally got around to changing the fuel filter today on my 2009 Genny 4.6L sedan. I gotta wonder what the engineers at Hyundai were thinking of when they designed this. It would have been so much easier to put a standard fuel filter somewhere along the fuel feed line OUTSIDE of the fuel...
