New 2015 owner questions

[POG]

Just picked up my 2015 Genesis 5.0 yesterday (only 245 miles on it!!). A few questions:

1. No SD map card with vehicle. If I order from here:
http://www.mapnsoft.com/hyundai/map-updates/2015-hyundai-genesis-only-touch-map-update-105s51.html
WITH the SD card, am I good to go? Or will not having the original SD card from the manufacturer pose a problem?

2. Registering with MyHyundai. It won't let me. I get this message after entering my VIN/info:

Enrollment in Hyundai Assurance Connected Care powered by Blue Link must be completed at your Hyundai dealer.
Please visit your dealership for enrollment assistance

Do I really have to go to a dealership just for this? I'm trying to register so I can download the Android Auto update (my car is not the Ultimate package). I'm also wondering if the map update from 1 will include the Android Auto as well...

3. Any other new tips for a new owner appreciated. My previous car was 2002 WRX which I just rolled 160K on. I'm really hoping this one last me 15+ years as well.

I'm also a new 2015 owner.

1. Don't know.
2. I emailed a scan of my purchase agreement and registration to Hyundai. Waiting for it to process.
3. It's a great car! (so far)

POG:

1) Not having an SD card is not a problem (my car didn't have one either). You'll just need your VIN when you order.

2) Did you buy this as a new car or used? I believe registering w/ myHyundai is normally done at the dealer when you're signing papers.

I suggest calling the dealer that you bought the car from and they should take care of it.

I don't know about Android Auto being pre-loaded on the car, but my guess is no. They will probably send you the version of the SD card that came w/ the car so you can spend $ on the update.

3) Tips:
- Break the car in according to the owner's manual before letting that V8 roar.

- Always use full synthetic oil and change the filter each time (my opinion).

That's about it - enjoy your new ride!

Weird... sorry for the cross post. I tried posting here initially but seemed like my post didn't work. Figured it was more appropriate in the NAV section so I posted there later and it showed up immediately. Anyways, thanks everyone for the responses.

I bought the car used, not from a Hyundai dealer. I ordered from MapNsoft so hopefully it works as they said it should. I plan on asking at the Hyundai dealer about myHyundai when I pick up the spare key fob (car only came with one) and touch up paint I ordered.
