  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    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, everyone. I have a 2011 Genesis sedan with engine troubles. Posting here as some 2011 Equus owners may have experience.

Hyundai lists rebuilt and replacement engines as NLA in the catalog. I guess they exhausted their service replacement supply.

I'm getting a $17k quote to rebuild the engine. Can anyone tell me whether this seems in line? I generally trust my dealer, the number just surprised me.

Our car has very low miles for the year, currently at 26k approx., so finding a used engine with similar mileage will be a needle in a haystack. I'm not categorically opposed to a used engine but don't see a benefit to an engine with multiples of miles compared to the car itself.

Any info on ballpark rebuild prices, leads on replacement engines, or insights generally are welcome.

Tom
