    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Hi!

It's my first post here, so I would like to say "Hi" to everyone.
Just to be clear - I'm from Poland, and my english is ... it is what it is. But I would do my best to be clear ;)

I'm a happy owner of Genesis DH 2015 with 5,0L engine G8BE since september of 2020. I do love this car - honestly!
Unfortunatelly - in march this Year, worst thing could happen - had happen!
I broke heart of my darling ;(
To be clear - one of pans finish its lifetime, which of course - bend crankshaft ;(
As I wrote before - I'm from Europe - Poland to be specific. 5.0L engine wasn't even sold in whole Europe in his years - only 3,8L.
It's pain in the @ss for me at the moment, to find parts or even engine for last 3 months.
I found one G8BE 5.0L motor, wich looks almost like new one! Only 35k miles driven!
Onfortunatelly, when he came to my mechaninc - he discover it's not G8BE which I need.
This one which I bought, was taken out from Equus 2014 (probably 2014), which was RWD. Mine Genesis is AWD which makes difference, and engine block doesn't fit to my car.
I know I should turn back that engine to previous owner, but it's incredibly hard to find proper parts, or engnine in our market. It's almost impossible!
So I wonder - if You guys could help me?
My mechanic selled my that Idea:
"Maybe we will swap crankshaft, from "new" engine to old one?"
But it's 50:50 - it would work or not. If not - we can't turn new engine to seller, it cost some mone, so I don't want to lose them.
He told me, it would be good to have blueprints of those engines before we would start to "undress", which could tell us if proper parameters would fit.

So - it's possible to get blueprints of those 2 version of one G8BE engine (AWD/RWD), or it is some kind of Huyndai secret?

If that would help - VIN of my car KMHGN4JF3FU017527
Don't have VIN of Equus ;(

Sincerely

Cyjus
