    2017 G80 or 2017 Buick Lacrosse for the quietest and most comfortable ride?

    I'm in the market for a new car and wanted the most comfortable and quiet ride out there. I test drove the Buick and plan to test drive the G80 as well. Has anyone compared these two cars? How comfortable and quiet is the G80? Thanks.

    First Generation HD Radio Quiet After Some Duration

    Hi All, Looking to see if anyone has run across this issue. The car is a 2010 Genesis Sedan 4.6 with Tech package. With HD radio enabled I'll notice after a few days that the volume has gotten significantly quieter at the same numerical volume setting. If I disable HD radio in the radio options...

    GPS and Bluetooth Sound Very Quiet

    Hey everyone, Purchased a 2010 Genesis Sedan 3.8 with Tech Package. Everything was working fine. Now all of a sudden the driver side (big speaker) pops everytime I start the car. (Not to loud but you can hear) What else happens is when my gps tries to tell me my route it almost sounds as if...

    Most quiet tire

    I have a '10 4.6 Genesis and it's time for new tires. I would like anyones thoughts on more quiet tire sets than the stock, and I am willing to give up some mileage in return. Quiet is the thing. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

    Is the V8 too quiet?

    Now that I have finally reached the break in period for my 4.6, I've been driving a bit more aggressively. I'm very happy with the 4.6 as it is very quiet and smooth, which is what I want most of the time. However, there are times I wish the motor made more noise, like an aggressive V8 growl...

    the most quiet cars

    As I get older, I get pickier about noise inside the cabin, and I get annoyed by the loud road noise in my Honda Accord. That is a big reason I am interested in the Genesis. While looking at Consumer Reports car ratings, I could only find 10 cars that had the highest rating for quietness. The...

    Resolving creaks (non-dashboard related)

    Six months and about 6,000 miles in, and I'm noticing a few distinct creaks in the cabin. Nothing horribly loud, but I'm dead sure they weren't there only a few hundred miles ago. I'm kinda OCD about this stuff, and am determined to stay on top of any new creaks/rattles as they occur so as to...

    Quiet whistle around 65mph?

    Got a 2010 4.6 and there is a very slight whistle when accelerating through 65 MPH. It's coming from the front of the car under the hood. In a lot of cars you wouldn't even be able to hear it, but the Genesis is so quiet that it's fairly audible. Anybody else got this problem? Was thinking...

    Quiet Engine Cooling Fan

    Anyone else ever notice how quiet the engine cooling fan is? Because I'm retired, every morning, I go for my morning Cafe Mocha, either in Downtown Mount Dora, or Wegmans in Penfield, or a little coffee shop on Main and Second in Roswell. I see a lot of cars parking while I'm walking around...

    Silence, Equus, I said be quiet!

    Greetings comrades. I have been reading this forum for a lil bit now and would like to compliment you on your dedication to the cause. It's refreshing to read from people who have a clue. For a variety of reasons, one of the main characteristics we are looking for in our next car is silence...
