  • 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.

It can be changed easily.

Stand outside the car with the key fob in hand. Press the lock and unlock buttons down at the same time. The lights (that blink when you lock or unlock your car) will blink four times.

Voila-changed. Now all 4 doors open with one press of door handle button. To change it back, do the same thing."

No more 2 button presses to let others into the car.
 
As an FYI, this doesn't work with a 2009. Works on my wife's 2012 Optima though...

Apparently it doesn't work with the 2010 either.
 
I have a creak in the headliner above the driver door. Does not happen to often but when the car gets torqued a little it makes the noise.

If it changed the functionality of the keyfob too it would be even nicer.
 
After 6 months of ownership and ~10,000 miles there a couple of things that I would list as a pet peeve on the Genesis. And I should state that I really very much like the car.

But lets be picky:
The display on the radio setting shows such a small amount of information. Could we show the name of the band? Album, Year....
The cooled seat. But I guess that is really my wife's peeve.
The parking assist alarm going off when it is snowing.
The navigation system is very expensive to update.
Map lights shine everywhere, not just down.
And the ride is very stiff. This is partly my ultra high performance tires, but still.

Yup that is about it. Not one thing that I would consider a deal breaker. Now where's that thread where I can list the good things, it will take a while.

Couldn't get it to work on my non-tech and got the dealer to do it for free. Think I remember reading something somewhere that it can't be changed this way unless you have the tech package.

Nice trick. Worked great for me. Love it.

Just curious, does it do the folding mirrors also? Or does that still take two button presses?
 
On my 4.6 both seats should be cooled. I have a 2012. OEM tires could be better. I now have Bridgestone Serenity plus. Pricy but very good.
 
Needing a new engine and transmission at 35,000 miles is pretty high on my list
 
My 09 will not pass smog test 102K miles first smog. Dealer cannot fix it. Recommends getting BAR to waive the test?? My car is severly devalued at this point and not able to be sold to be driven in CA. I am waiting on Factory Support which has been less than acceptable in my opinion. No call back on time etc. I will try tomorrow.

What all have they replaced in an attempt to pass smog?
 
Nothing to date, car checked out fine. Tomorrow 2/10 Hyundai No. America is sending an "Engineer" to repair the car. I will post the fix as I am told by my West coast Executive Rep. they have done two for her with positive results. Pete.
 
The 5th or 6th to 3rd shifting. It ls something that I have got used to, but is still not Genesis worthy.
I wish reverse had a Volkswagen like detent for reverse. Reverse should not be easy to get into like it is in the Genesis.
