  • 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.

What surprises have you "found" in your car...

I discovered WAY better handling and tightness with Uniq Performance rigid collars! It drives like a dream and it can corner with the best of them! Highly recommended!
 
the 4th drive mode i.e. ECO, Norm, Sport, SNOW - achieved by holding down the drive mode button.
 
This forum is under "General 2009-2014 Hyundai Genesis Sedan Discussion". 2gen, 2015 and up should publish in a different group. People with 1gen, 2009-2014, do not have any of these features or even buttons.

I tried summarizing what people found, and what works for my 2011, 4.6 with "everything":

• Trunk "lock" button in the glove compartment - DIDN'T find it
• Reducing the air pressure in my tires have made the ride mucho bettero !!!! True for any car, but shortens the tire life
• If you hold down the forward/reverse buttons on the steering wheel, it changes to the next frequency - Works!
• When backing up, the right setting will force the right mirror down. If set to the left it will force both mirrors down - DIDN'T work. In the middle no tilt; if on any side, both sides tilt
• Mute - push down for a couple of seconds on the "MODE" button on the left side of the steering wheel - True
• Scan Presets - Works
• Tiny red tail-lights illuminate in the small illustration of a car's rear end in the center display area - Works on 2012 and up
• To mute the audio, just push down on the controller - You have to be on any of the audio modes. Pushing the volume button does the same
• Front full display off" (black) or "Display off" (partial off) - DIDN'T find it
• Waypoint entry in the nav - Works! Press down > select "show rout" > Options > Waypoint
• If you hit the "Disp" button on the steering wheel you have a new nav option that isn't there when navigation isn't running. It displays the "next step" information including street name, direction and distance - DIDN'T work
• Approached my car at night in a dark parking lot, light under the rearview mirrors lit up - No such light on 2011
• The nav system learned/memorized our route for the trip back - Works
• When you first put it in reverse and the backup camera comes on, a little icon appears. Push that icon and the camera will point almost straight down - Not on my 2011

Found 2 more on mine:
• While in "Map" screen, tap the map button shortly and it'll display the exact address where you are ("Where am I")
• I entered a DVD into the changer; as long as the car is in parking the DVD show the full video on screen.
Is there there a way to bypass that?
Does it mean there's a video-in the HU? Can we divert it to mirroring the phone?
 
MozartMan, I meant that if it's in the middle, the tilt doesn't work but, of the switch is moved left or right, both mirrors tilt...
 
Then please fix your post, because it's wrong.

It's actually in front of the overhead light cluster, close to the windshield
That is not for your sunglasses by the way. It is a taco holder.
