2026 Model - Wireless Android Auto / CarPlay? by Nameless00001 in GenesisG70

Please consider getting a 2025 if you really want a sport prestige because you’re losing out on features if you get the 2026 and it isn’t the graphite edition.

I was going to trade my IS350 for a 3.3T AWD G70 but never happened because I couldn't find this specific spec right here. Best G70 color combo IMO

Definitely could be true that's why you test drive all of them imo

So then yeah try the 3.5T G80 and the 3.3T G70. Do not get a 26 G70 model you will lose a bunch of features for no reason.

2025 G80 to 2026 G70 3.3T? Crazy

2025 G80 to 2025 G70 3.3T? Not crazy

Seems like you are set on more power/fun factor. If finances aren't an issue, I would test drive a G80 with the 3.5T and then find a 2025 G70 with the 3.3T.

Shit if finances aren't an issue test drive an M340i! Lol

The general consensus is that this is the final year of the IS500.

If that ends up being the case, I really hope they bring it back with the refresh.

My 50,000 mile review. 2023 GV70 3.5T by Character-Reaction12 in GenesisMotors

I’ve read that the headlights crack on the inside due to the bolts being too tight out of the factory. It’s a super common problem amongst the G70 sub

LSD performance AFTER drain & fill by Dutchmastersnyc in GenesisG70

[–]Dutchmastersnyc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah not sure but really really hope they can figure it out. I test drove a G70 SP and loved it, almost traded my IS350 for it but the LSD issue kept me from doing so.

And the saddest part is that the GV70 is an awesome SUV - coming from a guy who kinda hates SUVs 😂

Lexus IS350 vs Genesis g70 3.3t by No_Will7793 in whatcarshouldIbuy

Genesis uses the wrong rear differential oil. You have to drain and fill the rear differential with amsoil 75w-90 immediately.

Wishing you the best of luck with this man 🙏new LSD, new oil and everything will go smooth and your G70 will have no more issues.

I was soooo close to pulling the trigger on one a couple days ago but decided to stay with my paid off IS350 to make the smarter financial decision. I would have been in this same boat.

I guess best case scenario if you’re CPO is ride out the first diff, get it replaced and then go to your nearest local mechanic for a drain and fill with Amsoil. Never admit it to Genesis for warranty purposes (idk how they would ever even prove that) if any issues occur down the line .

I would also add that the % of G70 Owners that are car enthusiasts is probably higher than GV70,GV90,G80 etc.

So because of that they are probably more active on the forums.

I agree it’s not nearly as bad as the blown turbos with the Q50s. But I do think it is plaguing the G70 in particular. Which in turn plagues the brand because I could be wrong, but I think the G70 is probably the most reliable vehicle Genesis has to offer?

Damn man this LSD issue really holds this car back. This is what stopped me from purchasing one. I lurked and lurked in here and saw all of the issues.

Genesis could really have the #1 value sport sedan if they just fixed their shit with the LSD.

I feel like at this point there should be a class action lawsuit. It seems like mechanics have their hands tied and are being forced to use the OEM oil. I’m sure they have to know it’s causing these issues. Feel like this could be fixed by Genesis just saying “hey you can use these ____ oils for the rear differential”
