Spark plug change in this video: • Genesis V8 Winter Prep...
Coolant change in this video: • Genesis 5.0 R-Spec Ral...
I cover the ownership experience for my 2012 Hyundai Genesis 5.0 R-spec. I cover maintenance, modifications, common problems and what to look for if you're in the market for a Genesis. All of these points can be applied to 2009, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 Hyundai Genesis 3.8, 4.6 and 5.0. My specific car is a 2012 R-Spec so the issues are specific to that but all the cars are basically the same, so expect uniformity in all models from what I stated in this video. Please do not hesitate to ask me anything in the comments, or better yet add anything I may have missed! Hope this video answers most if not all of your guys' questions. You can find all of the links below! Cheers friends and good luck!

I have a 2011 4.6L Genesis. Has 107k miles on it and I bought it with about 40k miles on it. I have to say, I just detailed it for the first time ever yesterday. I am really amazed that the paint is still stellar after years outdoors. This car has been solid. I replaced the window switches myself for about 150 dollars and then replaced the front brake pads and plugs at about 100k miles. Of course the battery wears out as normal. The radio has hiccupped a few times and then resets itself and continues on. Still working. Still runs perfectly, looks good and has been a very solid car. Thought about buying something new as I am bored with it, but my wife loves the car because it handles and is fast, so I broke down and bought a new set of tires for it. Oh, the volume button on the radio broke once and just broke again. Cheap plastic, and just buy a new knob. Really has been a GREAT car.
It's just so many of us are late to the game. I wish I knew about the 5.0 before buying mine with the 3.8. But even with the smaller engine it is a sick ride and very underappreciated.
I WILL BUY A GENESIS SEDAN
Do it bro just bought mine a week ago!
i dont know what to say . im an an boxing trainer and own and gym. broke as hell since covid 19. so literally needless 2say i have 0 money to .I bought the Genesis 3.8 sedate is 8 Sedan in 2016 and I absolutely loved ithey loved it. All of a sudden I noticed electrical problems last Winter twinter and I would completely lose control of the car and the ESC light would start blinking now now it is happening even in the rain the rain my thread is definitely low on my rear tires but I didn't know if you had any other experience or heard of anything that has to do with electricals problems or the ESc issues. i also have a tire inflation issue where my rear tire every 12 hrs goes to 15 psi. help please almost crashed 4x this week going 70mph
Still waaay more reliable then a 5 series
@@damianthesimp2522 which trim and engine?
🚣♂️
Just picked up a 2017 G80 5.0 Ultimate. (27k miles)
Very new to the car scene, (2014 Raptor SVT; 6.5 years, 181k miles) lookin forward to making my G80 my everyday driver from now on.
I'm the proud owner of a 2018 G80 3.8 and she's been flawless except for a leaking water pump (replaced under warranty at 26k miles). Nice ride. Can't complain. Test drove one with more than 100k mikes b4 pulling the trigger on this one and was very impressed. No rattles, valve tapping, suspension issues, etc.
Thank you for this! I’m checking out a pearl white 2012 Genesis tomorrow so all this information is very great to know, hoping for the best.. for all of us lol
watched 1/2 of this vid before work this morning had my heart set on a 2016 Acura tlx but it was parked next to a 2013 Gen so I took it for a spin and was sold immediately! the hp is awesome haven't had that feeling since I owned a 79 trans am-403 motoor 4 on the floor- just watched 2nd 1/2 of vid- very good info. thanks for being so honest. can't wait till thursday to take it on the hwy.
Love your videos... I also have a 2012 R-Spec 5.0 with 179,000 miles. I replaced the trunk badge, upgraded the rims to 19 x 8.5 (245/45R/19) as the factory seem to get road rash really easy. I replaced the Resonator, mufflers, and drilled out the secondary CATs. Like you I had to replace the Alternator at 140K miles and replace the plugs and Denon coils from Amazon for like $200. It only took me 30-40 minutes super easy. I replaced the factory Shocks and Struts... Again with factory as I could not find any aftermarket that would not lower the car. New C1 Rotors and pads all the way around.
Like your 2012 mine burns oil. Started at 1 quart every 1200 miles, then at 80K 1 quart every 1000 miles, at 120k 1 quart every 800 miles. During the summer I jumped to 10/40 weight oil and it helped, back to 1 quart every 1000 miles. At 178,000 miles it dropped to 1 quart every 500 miles. Bad timing... I just bought a new house in January and we replaced my wife's old SUV with a 2019 twin turbo Flex Limited. There went me going 200K miles and in 2022 getting a 2019 Genesis G80 Sport, those are the best rims. I went to CarMax... Yes CarMax to test drive sport sedans... I hated just about all of them. Either to small for my 6'3 wide as a door body type, no power, the suspensions were like ridding on a cloud... How is that a sport sedan, or the price tag was just to much for me... $30,000 for a 2018 G80 Sport... Yes I cried... I came home pissed off and I told the wife nothing was as good as my R-Spec.... She is so smart, so she, said then get a newer R-Spec with less miles!!! I will not repeat what else she said... :o
So guess what I did Friday and yesterday... I called about a half dozen dealers in Georgia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Illinois. The closest dealer with a respectable 2013 or 2014 R-spec that wasn't trashed, have high miles 100k+, or smoking crack asking $19k+ for a car that looks like crap and has duck-tap on the interior driver side door handle was 620 miles away. Yes there were some that were nice that were closer, Loveland, OH 2013 with 81K miles in black and its immaculate for $14,500... very well taken care of. My only concern was the manufacture date of 10/13/2012. Would it have the fixed piston rings... I settled on or should I say haggled the crap out of a dealer in Albany, Georgia. 2013 R-Spec in Parisian Grey with 47K miles for $14,800 + shipping + fees + taxes... Going from Georgia to Indiana hurts!!! Hope to have it delivered sometime next week.... I will finally have Android Auto...
to the point wildly helpful at the exact time I'm looking at a '12 5.0 r-spec, thank you!
& the links are 👌🥰
No thank YOU! And good luck with your search Shelly!
Bought my 12 R spec about a year and a half ago at 91k and now I'm at 115k. I've experienced most of the problems you cover in the video except for the seats, locks and alt. Fortunately for me, I'm a mechanic so I can handle the issues myself. I did want to comment on the oil consumption. I was at slightly over a quart per 1k from the time I purchased the car. After lots of research, I decided to flush the engine with "motor medic" 4 oil changes ago and replace 1 quart with Lucas additive. My consumption was cut in half over the course of the oil life (4000 miles). I did the same thing the next oil change and the consumption dropped again to less than a quart over the oil life. The next oil change, with no additives or flush it used almost no oil. I just changed the oil again and I'll be watching it closely. Fingers crossed. I have nothing to do with any of the products I mentioned, I'm just saying what I did and it seems to have worked.
what month was yours manufactured
Great video! I've also got a 2012 R-Spec that just passed 100,000 miles. Just starting to have some of the issues you mentioned, so I'm glad its not just mine!
Thanks!
I own a 2010 Hyundai Genesis V6 114,000 miles and I love it! Cabernet Red paint, light tan interior, navigation, and of course a simple, reliable 6 cylinder engine. No parking sensors, no cooled seats, every thing works!
Thanks for the info. I have a black 2012 with 3.8. Very happy with the car. The only issue I had was the sunroof. (covered by warranty). Keep making videos.
Glad to hear your sunroof was under warranty!
I have a 2011 3.8L with 140,000kms (90,000 miles). Only things I have had to replace since getting the car 4 years ago is a battery and the rear back up camera as you reported, and bought the replacement on line, and luckily it arrived within a few days from Korea. I have the 6 speed automatic and I agree with everything you say about the vehicle and its ride. Like your car my sensors beep once in a while, but to me, no big deal. Thanks for the tip about looking for problems after 100,000 miles is reached. I am considering trading it in on a '19 Hyundai Sonata, low mileage, with similar bells and whistles, with a difference before taxes of $13,000 CDN. I hope I have as good a service with the Sonata as I have had with the Genisus. Enjoyed your report.
2013 Genesis R-Spec ( blk/blk ) 12,700 mi as of today. This channel assisted in my research and decision to buy it a couple of years ago. All good so far! Love it...Thanks man! Keep up the great work and congrats on your sponsorship.
Glad I could Joesph! And thanks!! 👍👍
This is really a good video. Straight talk with no bull.
gonna be hard to leave my audi but I wanna travel the whole country by car this year and want something fun + luxurious, nothing beats this at its current price. Almost certainly gonna end up with one soon, thanks for the video. Very helpful
Very informative. You're a great Genesis resource. Thanks a million.
Appreciate it!!
I bought my 12 Rspec almost 3 years ago, after discovering this channel. I've been so happy with the car and I'm glad I bought it when I did! I've since seen others go for double what I paid for mine. Thanks for all the great content my man!
I paid 8000 for my 12 r spec with 90k miles
@@ivanbustos2097great deal
Very helpful!! Looking into a 2015 5.0 with very low miles and I'd imagine some of these things have been fixed from one generation to the next but still good to know what to look for when buying one
channel is fire 🔥 definitely need more love
Going to get a 2013 5.0 soon. 70k miles. Thanks for the review
Great video sir. Very helpful advice
Love all the info about the genesis on your channel! My Genny just recently started giving me a TPMS light and I noticed yours was on in this video too, have you resolved this or is it not worth fixing? I have had no problem manually checking my tire pressures lately in the mean time.
I found a 2013 about a two years ago with a little over 25,000 miles on it. Now it has about 44,000 miles. I had to replace a front wheel speed sensor. Great car in my opinion so far.
Just bought a 2015 5.0 all I have to say is wow!!!
Just got a 2013 Genesis 3.8 Sedan and I LOVE it!
Just bought a 2012 5.0 r spec thank you very much for your videos !
You’re welcome!
I have a 2010 4.6 genesis . I bought it around 65k now has 140k. Mostly all freeway ! Had it for 3 years now. Changed battery, changed spark plugs, changed breaks, resurfaced rotors when I first got it. Regular oil changes every 3k miles, had to replace evap purge valve (check engine light came on at 100k after valve change check engine went away!). Wear and tear suspension issues (I drive very fast tbh) recently replaced lower control arms next I will replace shocks and struts. Other than that the car has been very reliable! No issues at all ( knock on wood ) back up camera went black before (read in a genesis forum to slam the trunk ) got out slammed the trunk hasn’t happened again and this was about at 110k so it’s been a while ! I would highly recommend this car if someone asked !
I have a black on black 3.8L 2013 sedan with only 75,000 miles on it. I bought the car new. To date I have only had to change a headlight control module at an independent garage (not cheap). I changed the front brake pads myself at 72,000 miles. There was still about 10,000 miles left on the old pads though. I did not change out the rotors. Next time I’ll upgrade to drilled and slotted rotors. I changed the tires at 73,000 miles. I put 255/50 VR 18’s on the front and 255/55 VR 18’s on the rear. I needed the car raised a little to avoid bent wheels (had 2) on Atlanta’s crappy streets/roads. Great upgrade. I changed the exhaust from CATS back. Replaced the middle resonator with an “X” pipe and replaced the mufflers with Magnaflow mufflers. Great sound and horsepower improvement! i added a “Sprint Booster” to improve throttle response - best add on for $300 investment! I put a leather steering wheel cover on and it made the steering wheel “fatter” which I like for driving comfort. I put on a cheap “oil catch can” to help stop any oil vapors from being sucked in through the intake valves. I think all GDI engines would benefit from that addition. I added a K&N engine air cleaner at about 25,000 miles. I just cleaned and recharged it a couple days ago - they only need attention about every 50,000 miles. I have only used full synthetic oil in the car. I only change the oil and filter about every 10,000 miles or so. Am I happy with the car? Now that I have made all the changes I wanted, YOU BET I’M HAPPY WITH IT! It’s finally just what I intended for the car to make it MINE! Oh, and it LOVES to be driven at fast highway speeds! What a great road car!
I have a 2009 4.6 Hyundai Genesis love it, reliability is awesome.
You're in chicago too? that's awesome 😂💯 im going to look at Genesis tomorrow 2013 R Spec
Just bought a 2014 R-Spec, can’t wait to get it registered and on the road
Congrats Mason!
Nice
We have one and it's the best car we have ever owned
Perfect review. To the point and no BS.
Just pick up a rspec 2014 54k. Best purchase I've made. Absolutely loving it!!!
How much ?
18k out the door.
What wheels do you have on your genesis? How long do you personally expect these cars to last? I’m looking at some 3.8’s with 150k and under
Thanks for the info, very informative. I own a 2009 Genesis and it has 106,000 miles and runs great. The only thing is that the sunroof doesn’t work, not too worried because the AC gets super cold.
thank you for all the vids, it helped a lot, I am buying one tomorrow, 2013 RSpec, wish me luck.
You’re welcome and good luck friend!!
very informative. Thank you sir!
Awesome video. Im extremely happy with my 2011 3.8 sedan (168,000 miles) no problems. Im in the process of replacing the master window switch due to the rear passenger window not coming up. At the same time hoping it can fix the door lock issue. will keep you posted. Thanks for sharing!!
Cheers.
Thanks for commenting! And def keep us ALL updated. The more experiences the better!
Just bought a 2011 4.6 with 170k miles, everything works perfectly! Not a single thing has malfunctioned, what great cars

Found a stupid deal and may be getting into a 2011 4.6 sedan. This video is exactly what I was looking for!
Just bought my 2013 last week! Thanks for all of your videos. You gotta see if a catch can will help your your oil consumption.
Nice congrats! And possibly in the future. Car has been reliable thus far idk if I need one.
A catch can will not do a thing about bad piston rings or otherwise related to high oil consumption. The catch can is there to help limit the amount of gunk (oil and carbon) from forming on the backside of the intake valves when the PVC system recycles the oil vapors back into the intake runners and over the valves. GDI does not wash the backside of the intake valves with fuel like old school injection systems so valves get to be gunked up, in some engines more than others. To remove it all you have to pull the intake manifold and physically remove it. Looks like an easy job.
Hey man i never seen your videos but thsi was a good one! And funny as hell at times lol
I brought my 2012 gen 3.8 sedan new im at 111,660 miles now no issues with the engine or transmission so far just the traction and cruise control modules having issues and when its hot the driver door lock actuator doesn't operate properly but it still drives smoothly and runs great oh the sun roof repair for me at the dealership was a little over $1k
My check engine light blew out. 2010 Genesis 4.6 sedan. How do I change it???
found your videos looking up stuff on the R-specs. just picked up a 2012 R-spec from the auction for $4K with 160K. At least when we looked at it at the auction everything was working. picking it up this monday and ill see how it does for it being my daily.
Big whoops bud
Have a 2013 3.8 that I bought last year at 100,000 km. Only issues I had was the parking sensor you mentioned (just turned the feature off to avoid the beeping) and my passenger side mirror motor was faulty (bought a used one and replaced it myself). Other than that I love it. Will keep an eye out for the sunroof though, I use it everyday.
Glad to hear you haven’t had many issues! And I believe my sunroof broke because I never used it tbh.
Just purchased my 2011 4.6 with 120k miles on it 3 weeks ago and I absolutely love it so far. I watched your channel leading up to the purchase which helped me decide to pull the trigger on the car. Awesome channel bro! This channel and these cars both deserve more love!
For how much?
Damn thanks Andrew!!!
josephseason about 8k
120k Highway miles is like 40k city miles with all the stop and go and stress on a car.
One of the reasons never buy a car from the NYC area.
How has it held up? I’m looking to get one tmr
Great video, I may be looking into one. Is the warranty transferable? If its under 100k ? Thank you !
Just bought one off my father, so I KNOW its been cared for. A bit high mileage for my liking (75,000), but he kept it clean & gave me a "family discount" on the price lol.
This video is awesome. My 2013 5.0 Genesis is having the same parking sensor issue. Are you planning to fix that? I'd be very interested if you make a video fixing that in the future haha
Possibly haha for my sanity I probably should.
Love my 2012 R-Spec. 96000 mile and only have replaced battery and alternator those far.
Me too but at 125,000 and didn’t replace the battery yet
Nice! Just be mindful of the alternators!
Just bought a genesis 3.8 sedan ! Runs really smooth and looking what kind of mods I could do ! Past owner took very will of the car has 95,000miles
I got a 2012 CPO R Spec with 25K miles 5 years ago and got the Hyundai extended warranty. I had 3 transmissions replacements, an engine top overhaul due to oil consumption then finally Hyundai replaced my motor at 100K miles after oil consumption tests. Now, with 110K miles I noticed that the soot build up in my bumper due to oil burning is gone. The transmission is holding strong but I try to drive it old man conservative. If you get one, just make sure to get the warranty. My sunroof went south as well after I got it but was replaced with warranty. Also the driver seat rails were replaced as well as the I drive controller.
Sheeeeeshhh I honestly wouldn’t have kept the car after all those problems. Sounds like a nightmare!
I love the videos and appreciate the informative content. Have you ever compared the performance from a 4.6 and a 5.0 in near similar years? I have the 4.6 and am just curious how much the 30 hp really feel in the seat of the pants and in the time slips.
Still waiting on a local guy with a 4.6 I can make a video with...
Xtalgic _ put out the word. With your resume and skills it shouldn’t be hard around the Chicago area. I think it would be a great way to further the following of the brand awareness. If you get down to the Nashville area I am happy to help and have a good friend who has a ‘12 5.0...
Thanks for the info. Was looking at a used 2012 Genesis 3.8 today at the dealership. Has 133,000 k miles on it, and price was 9k. What do you think of it, and anything I should check before using it??
When you do the rear camera, see if can upgrade to a better one, more clear/ less grainy.thanks.
I have my eyes on a 2010 and a 2012 right now. Both look like new in the photographs. No chips, no flaws visible in photo's. The tan interior front seats are the only thing that look a bit dirty and a little worn. The 2010 has 87,000 miles on it and the 2012 has 117,000.
I'm thinking of aiming for the 2010 because it's cheaper than the 2012 by five thousand dollar's and it has less miles. I love the ritzy style and l hear the ride is quiet, stable and comfortable on the highway. The 4.6 V8 is a plus for me because l'm a fan of V8's . Keep up on maintenance, keeping the engine clean and in top form is an old school Hot Rodder thing for me . But ' at the same time,
l want some cushioning comfort at my age.
I can't wait to test drive one and see it front of me. I hope it's not a small car !
I have a 2009 4.6 Genesis and I use full synthetic oil. (Mobil 1 or Pennzoil platinum). I change the oil every 10,000 miles (ten thousand) and it does not use a drop in between changes. The car currently has 125,000 miles on it. This is very much in contrast to your experience with oil consumption.
Love my 09 4.6 these cars are so underrated! Found a 2012 5.0 r-spec hopefully will be adding that soon
Hell ya! Good luck!
How has your 09 4.6 held up? I want to get a 09 4.6 with 122k miles but I’m not sure if they’re very reliable in the long run since it would be my daily.
@@obungapyramid5525 love it
No issues
2012 8 spd transmission lots of issues
Hi! Does 4.6 have the oil consumtion issue ?
Elia, great video man!! Thanks so much for the thoroughness of the video and I already have the door lock issue but mine is the right rear passenger door that doesn’t unlock. Here’s one for you. My trunk suddenly not unlock and open blocs the key fob or the button on the door. Could not figure it out but thanks to google I found the valet button in the glove box had been pressed which disables the trunk and once I pressed it, boom all worked again😀😀
Haha that’s happened to me once before. And thanks for the support dude!
Great name
I just got a 2013 genesis 3.8, so far a couple small issues. 1) Driver side heater seat doesn’t work, 2) starting to get trans slip when changing gears (I have extended warranty that should cover it, 3) I do notice the issue with the paint (Small chips on front and back bumper). Other than that, I’m enjoying the drive so far. I will continue to come back and check out the channel for other tips and tricks on the vehicle.
The 2010 3.8 Genesis is nice asf I love mine
Another great video!! Have you looked into putting a catch can on?
Thanks! And I have not.
Thanks a lot for inform and teaching about Genesis, like to know what Oil you recommended to my next change.
No cap i love my 14 genesis sedan
I just got one 2009 3.8 with 66k only on it.
Love it !
It's honestly such a damn shame they never offered the v8 in the genesis coupe. Around the time when that car was new so many people were comparing it to g37's, mustangs, and camaros. And the main #1 gripe I saw people bring up in favor of the american cars was that there's no v8 option to really compete with a 5.0 mustang or anything. It's especially sad, knowing how good the tau v8's are, Fairly bulletproof and make great power. It would have been so cool to have a korean muscle car with a 430hp v8, and really would have boosted their street cred at the time. I think hyundai's reasoning was that it wouldnt fit, but I've seen several tuners that successfully swapped it in. I've got a 2.0t r spec, and love it to death, but man that v8 would have been cool. We desperately need hyundai to bring back the coupe under the new genesis platform. The sedans are awesome, but I can only imagine how cool a coupe would be with the kia stinger v6tt. Would make a good fairlady Z and supra competitor.
Great video, thank You ! I feel very fortunate ! I have a 2011 Genesis sedan with 4.6 in Titanium silver. I've got only 30,555 miles on mine, not a daily driver. The car is absolute Mint condition. I have had zero problems with anything. I installed Magnaflow cat back & she just rumbles so very sweet. Stainless pillar posts really set it off. It's the fastest / finest car I ever owned. Lexacon sound system is fabulous. My wife won't ride with me. I've done 145 mph twice. A high performance luxury car no doubt. And I'm a 64 year old kid ! Dave, Pittsburgh, Pa. area...
She gonna be for sale one day?

Hello ! No problems what so ever. Finest machine I ever owned...@@user-hg6my3pl7j
I can hear that your front parking sensor is also out like mine is lol. My reverse camera just started going out too. I’m at 104k so I’m taking some pointers from this video!
Love the videos. Great content. I am very close to buying a 13 r spec 92k KM’s on it. I appreciate you saying you love
The car and it’s reliable, but I kinda feel like these electronic issues are being downplayed. It just seems like there are a lot of them, is this common? To be honest I would rather mechanical problems than electronics. Way easier to fix and often cheaper too. Anyhow, love the videos, love the car. Perhaps someone can let me know if these issues are in fact common.?
Is the consensus that everyone loves their Genny?

I had the 2009 first edition of the Genesis v8. Never had a problem. Sadly it is totaled. I loved it
Canada says waw, I absolutely enjoy your videos, a little cussing is perfect, anyone who works on his car knows why, and you are realistic, I am buying a used one.
Love the vids
Thanks again Kristian!
Currently drive a Veloster N as a daily/track/autocross car and was thinking about picking up one of these as a daily driver. Thanks for the review!
Hell ya! Always wanted to test drive one of those, heard they’re incredible, especially for the value.
@@Xtalgic they are an absolute blast! I have some autocross and track footage on my channel. It's a riot. Not that bad of a daily driver, but you can tell the focus was on performance and not comfort.
I watched your video all the way through and I recall hearing about the piston ring issue last time I was researching this car. Is that only on the V8 models or do the V6 models have the issue as well? I was kind of leaning towards the V6
@@autocrosseverything def will check out those video. And the only motor affected was the 5.0 and early production years in 2012.
@@Xtalgic great, thanks for the reply! I'm in the Chicagoland area so the Autobahn Country Club track might sound familiar to you. I also recall you saying you do some rallies in your Genesis - I'm guessing you mean traditional road rallies where you try to maintain a certain speed over a set route? I was looking into trying one of those next year, sounds fun. Curious which ones you do!
Thanks for posting this. By far the best long term review on this car. There are tons of videos on the car when it was new, but I really care about how it is in the long term after it's got some miles on it. Thanks for the quick replies, and I wish you and yours a happy new year!
Thanks man! All the raillies and cruises I’ve done are on the channel. And if you’re ever down, I’d love to film your N. Lemme know!
great indepth review lookin at a 2015 5.0
Thank you! And good luck, keep on mind I’ve read about A LOT of issues with the 15’s might want to search for 2016+
@@Xtalgic whats bad wit the 15s?

Your video is very informative, Great Job, I’m looking at buying a 2009 Genesis 3.8 with only 39,000 miles for $11,500 I believe it’s a good deal, I will be looking for some the problems you covered though, what do you think?
Hey man I’ve been lookin into the 2015 5.0 models and I’m really close to buying it, I know you have the 2012 but do you know anything about how reliable the 2015s are with around 100k miles ?
I've heard the 15's have a bunch of electrical problems. I would look at 2016+
I'm at 148k and have only had to change my EVAP Purge valve. Coolant flush at 130k. Other than that not one issue. And I beat the hell out of it lol
Update: 165k miles and still no issues
Update: 186k miles. Fully tuned on e85 428whp and 395rwtq with harsh abuse and still 0 issues
Hell ya 🤘
I have a 2011 Genesis 4.6L currently having issues where I pump gas and the car doesn't want to start up at first but after 1-2 min it starts up fine what do you suggest?
@@BangBang-qm4mg EVAP purge valve is most likely causing it. I had the same issue. Get the bosch brand
@@Kimjongun5.0 Big Bets preciate it frfr
@@Kimjongun5.0 do u recommend any particular store that carries this product?
Hello from Libya again 😂
Awesome video
Helllooo again Ahmed! Thank you my friend!
Damn son that was a great review!
I bought an '11 4.6 a little over a month ago with higher miles. So far it has been running as if it had a fraction of the miles. I have experienced the intermittent rear camera blackout as well as the front sensors beeping at me on occasion. Also, the cruise control doesn't work. Other than that it is a solid, well-built car.
Quick question, as it relates to the oil you'd mentioned: Do the 4.6 engines have the same oil burning issues you mention the 5.0 as having?
Glad to hear you picked up a good one! And I believe the oil consumption only affected the 2012 5.0’s.
just got a 14 rspec , its awesome .. Just trying to figure out where all the buttons are and what they do
Well glad mine doesn’t have the parking sensors an sun roof but yeah the paint is for sure fragile !! White specs all over a black definitely stands out
Currently on the market for a 5.0 rspec, i have a 2011 BK1 Genesis Coupe and decided i want to upgrade XD
Any advice on purchasing a 2010 V6 Sedan with 133k miles? Wise choice or look for another with lower mileage? Thank you.
I have a 2012 3.8 genesis sedan with 80,000 miles on it. I really want to modify it and invest a lot of money into it but I just don’t know where to start, do you have any suggestions for me? Do you even think it’s worth tuning it all and that good stuff?
I had a 2012 a few years back and I loved it. Bought it at 82K miles and was the second owner. Piston ring on cylinder 2 did go and it actually ended up causing the motor to blow. I would 100% buy another one, but it would definitely Not be a 2012.
Thanks for the info friend! And I agree I’d stick with the 13-14 year models.
What years are best?
Is the warranty, if it hasn't expired yet, transferable to subsequent owners?
Thank you great info on the car
You’re welcome William!
@@Xtalgic On a side note have you ever thought of doing the 2009-2014 Genesis SEDAN MODEL 10 Piece Rigid Collar kit for your car
I’m looking to buy the 5.0 r spec sedan!! What are your opinions on that? Everybody is saying it’s great exhale for the handling
Obviously I’m biased soooo... Get one!
OWNED MY 2012 4.6 FOR 6 YEARS WITH 84K ON IT NOW. WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTOR WENT OUT RIGHT AFTER I BOUGHT IT AT 35k . WARRANTY COVERED IT. OTHER THAN THAT JUST A NEW BATTERY. GREAT VIDEO VERY INFORMATIVE.
Hi! Does 4.6 have the oil consumtion issue ?
@user-hg6my3pl7j I never had any. I had 85k on it. Until someone hit the rear and it was totally in 2022.
Getting a 2014 genesis 5.0L! 60k miles can’t wait
Damn! That’s what I’m looking for!! What color ?
I just bought one yesterday in black
I have a 2011 3.8 but don't have oil issues. I've had it for almost 5 years, bought used.
I believe only the 5.0 was affected. 👍
I really might get one I never really thought about it till I seen one earlier and thought about modding it
I've got a 2010 4.6 and I've had to do the whole front strut assembly at 145k. And legit nobody had any parts not even the dealers. So had go the cheap way, Junk yard parts. And it took me 3 days to do the God Damn alternator.
Hi! Does 4.6 have the oil consumtion issue ?
I'm looking to buy one of these or a Honda Legend KB2 or a Lexus LS460 1st facelift some time this year or next year. Information is very hard to come by and there aren't a lot of these cars around where I live, so any video is helpful. Thanks a lot! Sadly I can't buy the 2016 generation of this car, because they are so young that I would have to pay €10.000ish on extra emissions taxes in my country. These have more of an age discount though, and should run me only around 1.5-3.5k extra depending on the year.
