    2013 R Spec Issues: alignment, front springs and other Unobtainium Parts

    Bought this car based on reviews, but boy I should have read this forum first. Got a good deal from a little old lady who owned it from new, really good shape and never abused. Took it to get aligned and discovered that the front springs were collapsed, too much negative camber, and my tires...

    Help me decide which Genesis to purchase!

    So I have been trying to find a V8 Genesis sedan for awhile and I've finally narrowed it down to 2 choices, and I would like to know which is the smarter choice. They are both about 2 hours away from me so going and looking and both and deciding is just not realistic for me. So we have the...

    Troubleshooting bank 2 misfires on all cylinders

    Hi folks, I'm here to ask for advice dealing with Bank 2 (driverside) misfires which began about two weeks ago, and the car hasn't been driven much since. It idles very badly and I'm afraid to do any damage to the engine. I've instead spent several days reading up on threads here and...

    Question about iPod/USB functionality with iPhones

    2014 Genesis R-Spec here. I've had the car since 2015 and have always used an Android phone connected via Bluetooth. I recently started using an iPhone 7 (old, I know) and notice quite a bit of sound quality improvement when plugging in through USB vs playing through Bluetooth. The only issue...

    FOR SALE: 2012 Genesis 5.0 R-spec: ready for retirement...

    It pains me to say that I think the time has come for my 2012 Genesis 5.0 R spec to be set out to pasture. I owe a huge thank you to all of y’all on this site because with yawls posts, I was able to do tons of maintenance and repairs on this car and keep it on the road in the fire breathing...

    Ideas for New Car

    Hey I just got a 2012 Genesis Sedan R-Spec. This is my first Korean car that I’ve owned and was wondering what were some recommended modifications for the Tau 5.0 platform. Currently sitting at just over 100k miles on it. I’ve been told a lot to just focus on cosmetics but I can seem to pull...

    Potential future owner, looking for advice

    Hi everyone, I'm looking at buying a 2009-2013 or so after graduating. Looking in the <$15k range, depending on budget I may have to stick closer to 10, which is why the 09 is included. Most of the cars I would be interested in have about 80-100k, some are 4.6, some r-spec. Anyway, my question...

    First Generation FS - 2012 Genesis Sedan R-Spec $17,800

    I have owned this car since December of 2015, but it is time to move on. I am in no particular hurry to sell, but I am getting bored of it and want something a bit "sportier". You guys know the details on these cars, so I won't go into them. It isn't without it's chips and knicks here and...

    5.0 R-Spec Misfire or Something Else

    So my R-spec has been doing something strange. In gears 3, 4, and sometimes 6, when I get on it, I get a random "stumble" and "shudder" feeling reminiscent of what my Firebird would do when the ignition wires were arcing against the exhaust manifolds. Does anybody else have this problem? Is it...

    First gen R-spec sedan - will 18" first-gen Genesis wheels fit?

    Hey there folks, I'm new here, but I've been on car forums for about 15 years thanks to my love of my old 95 Impala SS. So, it's good to meet a new community. I've been searching and searching, and I've read many threads in the Wheels etc forum, but I'm unable to come up with a clear...

    First Generation Rigid Collar Questions

    I apologize in advance for beating what may be a dead horse, but I still have some questions about rigid collars. 1. Will these (or the installation thereof) void either of my warranties (60,000 mile bumper-to-bumper CPO and 10/100k powertrain warranty)? 2. Can I expect any improvement in...

    First Generation 2013 Genesis Software Updates?

    I notice there is an option in the menus to update the software in the entertainment system using a flash drive. How does one do this, or is it something the dealership has to do?

    First Generation Correct tire pressure for P245/45ZR19 on R-Spec Sedan

    What is the correct tire pressure for these? Should I just set them to the same pressure the 235s were at?

    First Generation 2013 R-Spec Tire Options

    Does the 2013 Genesis R-Spec support the same P245/45R19 tires that the 2012 R-Spec does? I am looking for a set of new all-season tires for my 2013. Somebody put Michelin Premier LTXs on my car which are totally wrong for a sport sedan. They are an SUV/Pickup/Crossover tire with the wrong...

    Installed Dynomax Super Turbo 17731 mufflers on my 12 R-Spec

    [Video] Installed Dynomax Super Turbo 17731 mufflers on my 12 R-Spec As the title says... Here's a vid. I don't think the iPhone 6s does it justice. I think it sounds great. Subtle, yet it does the trick. Drone at 65mph and 1800-ish RPM is pretty minimal. Definitely tolerable...
