mode

On the 2015 Genesis 3.8 HTRAC AWD, I found what they call the 'snow mode'. I was familiar with the ECO mode, sport mode and normal mode, dealer highlighted them to me. But I found out, through reading the owner's manual, that if you hold the mode button down for just a second longer, you are...

So, from my understanding, there is not a designated sport mode. I mean switching to manual is sport mode but nothing lights up (like in ECO) to tell you. But when the sun shone on my dash the other day I did notice a 'sport' right next to 'ECO' on the dash. How do I get this to light up or what...

Now that many parts of the country have had significant snow, does using the "snow"mode help?

Has anyone experienced the problem. The car has less than 2000 miles on it. When I turn on the car the audio system it would tell you that Sirius XM is starting up, then connect to you phone and then start playing the sirius station I was listening to last. Now it sometimes automatically tunes...

One aspect of considering AWD versus RWD on the 3.8L V6 is the reduction in MPG. What impact does changing the driving mode (Normal, Sport, Snow, etc.) have on MPG for the AWD 2015 Genesis? From what I have read, Sport is a 90/10 split. Other than the extra weight and friction of the AWD...

Beside Normal, Sport, and Eco, there is supposed to be a Snow model. How do I get to it? When I toggle the button by the gear shifter, I only see the first three modes and no Snow mode. So far, AWD has greatly helped on my icy and hilly driveway.

I got a set of used wheels and winter tire setup from my brother in-law last week. I ordered some black lug nut and I'm re-plasti dipping. Well before I was able to installed them we got a pretty good snow storm (8" of snow) the other day in NE Ohio. With the OEM tires and Snow mode on I was...

On my 2015 Genesis 3.8 Tech AWD, I usually drive in normal mode - thoughts to ponder Does eco mode really save you mpg Is sport mode a better handling experience (and at what sacrifice in mpg). I know there are really 4 choices, but snow mode is another story. Just trying to see if the...

Don't like having to switch to it every time I drive. Is it possible?

I'm on my fourth day of driving my new vehicle and aside from the voice navigation not doing well for picking up correct addresses there is another item (separate thread on this issue already in progress by another member) I wish the drive mode stayed with the last setting. After you shut down...

Driving home today and car loses power, going uphill. max RPM around 3k and speed limited to 35mph. 1) how is this activated while driving? Bluelink said they don't even know what it means. 2) how do you shut if off? my key was in my pocket. was this actually a valet mode???? no...

I can't imagine ALL Equus drivers here live in the South or West, so for those experiencing this brutal winter how is Snow Mode treating you? I'm finding it to be fantastic, better than my previous Passats with 4Motion. I haven't once found myself afraid to drive in snow, unlike my original Gen...

Does anyone know if you can have the 2012 Equus sport mode upgraded to the 2014 software/firmware? Big difference in shift points and ride between my 2012 and the 2014. Any thoughts on this. Thanks

I searched for any previous thread on this topic and didn't find one, so my apologies if this is covered territory! Obviously one of the major points of contention with the Genesis 8-speed tranny is the laziness of it, primarily when downshifting under WOT. Unlike many similar cars, there is...

2011 4.6 tech pkg ~24k i've had the car for circa 9 mos. as others have observed in other threads, the air is not as cold as it could be, but seems okay. but that's not what this is about. seems like the AC light used come on when in Auto mode when the compressor engaged - but a few days ago...

I have recently been enamored with the Full Eng Mode menus on my 2009 4.6 Genesis. In particular, I have been experimenting with turning XM traffic to the "off" position to resolve a problem I've had where the DIS knob becomes non-functioning after voice commands are issued. Seems to work if...

Had some initial problems getting recognition of my IPod, which I resolved by re-downloading ITunes and "restoring" IPod. Now car recognizes IPod, but does not keep/retain/hold the "shuffle" setting (in songs). Any minor change such as going to FM or even back to playlist deletes the shuffle...

I just purchased a 2013 Genesis 5.0 R-Spec. I'm still learning about all the bells & whistles in this great car. There is one feature I can't find explained in the manuals - ECO Driving Mode. Page 4-58 of the Owner's Manual explains how to turn ECO mode ON/OFF but not much more than that...

I just tried using the manual shift for the first time yesterday after having my G for 4 weeks now. Even after reading the manual, I still wasn't clear on what to do, and all I could think of was that I might throw it into the wrong gear by pushing the gear shift into the manual slot. I grew...

Recently, my bluetooth has started to act up. While on a call via Bluetooth, suddenly the screed reads "call ended" and then a check appears in the "Privacy Mode" box. While driving, I have to uncheck it via the control knob only to have it happen again in a short while. I have tried...
