Adding carbon filter to Genesis emission system.

[steveaustin]

I got a letter from Hyundai on an "important service campaign." It had to do with adding a carbon filter to my emission system. No charge, but they usually want to add several other services (at a high price) when they get their hands on your car. Anyone have an opinion on getting this service done?

Im assuming our cars don't have a carbon filter. Where are they mounting it? Does anyone have pictures?

They would not have been legal to sell in the US (or most other countries) if they did not.

It's in the left rear wheel well, up top, behind the liner. E in the picture below.

Thank you! I didn't know they were a legal requirement to be honest.
