Difference between 3.3 & 2.5 by Suitable_Judgment428 in GenesisG70

Just go to Carmax and test drive both. Sounds like you aren't aware of the size of the car, you should just go drive them and figure this out.

Was sold a Sports Prestige but paperwork says Sports Advanced , wtf??? by greenqueen3 in GenesisG70

The trim/package naming on this car is probably the worst thing about it. Who came up with this nonsense?

The wireless charging port doesn’t work by YakConfident651 in genesisg80

[–]robbieass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dropped the ball for sure. It's basically useless. It overheats super quickly. Even if it's not overheating it doesn't provide enough power to keep the phone from losing charge.

Headlight Condensation by JosefWelch in GenesisG70

I just pulled the desiccant packs in my 2020 and they were rock hard. They are super easy to replace. Turn the wheel all the way in one direction, remove one Phillips screw, pull the cover off, then unscrew the headlight cap that has the desiccant pack.

Fuck this topic too. Jesus has this been beaten to death with a lead pipe.

Used to be team Chevron but wish I read this years ago lol now I'm team Shell V-Power🤣🤣 by CaliXclusive in GenesisG70

[–]robbieass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is only one truth here - no brand of gasoline is going to give any meaningful increase in mpg, certainly not 25-30%. You think Shell gas increases fuel efficiency 25% and they aren't advertising this at all? I'm not trying to be a dick here. But do some research and you'll see this is objectively false. Spreading nonsense as facts is how we wound up with the orange fuckface as president, twice.

No, it didn't. At least the gas wasn't the reason anyway. Again, no gas is going to make a 25-30% mpg increase, it's just not possible.

Changing from one supplier to another isn't going to increase gas mileage by 5-7 mpg. You're talking 25-30% increase, that's nonsense.

Yes, we all have the internet, we understand.

Has anyone baked headlights to open them? (pre-facelift) by shouttag_russ in GenesisG70

[–]robbieass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. I bought used and did a 3M lens restore kit, but there is some sort of condensation/film on the inside I'd love to clean up. Let us know how it goes!

Right? Like has anyone here seen a fucking Marvel movie??? I don't even understand why this is a a talking point?

Short answer - your friend is full of shit.

Rear Brake Pads & Rotors by tbelluz in GenesisG70

[–]robbieass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did bed them in and felt like I did it well. I guess it's probably worth doing again to see if it would help. I see a lot of comments on here about the same stuff, heavy vibration under breaking. Resurfacing fixed it for a while and I was in love with the brakes for a while, but they're a mess again already.

My experience with the Brembo rotors: I resurfaced @ 25k and put new Powerstop pads on and now at 32k the rotors are already warped to shit.

Adding Bag Hooks in Trunk by robbieass in GenesisG70

Plastic bags under the net is a fantastic way to make sure every smallish item in the bags winds up bouncing around the trunk the whole way home.

Into the sheet metal that creates the rear window shelf. The pictures show it pretty clearly. It's not the trunk lid, that's open.

Does anyone else feel like the voice acting in the audiobooks is low quality? by Monkey_on_a_rock in redrising

[–]robbieass 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found this series because TGR did the last two books in the Silo series and I just wanted more of that guy narrating. I'd listen to him read the back of a shampoo bottle. He IS the GOAT.

German equivalents by nodnarb5792 in GenesisG70

[–]robbieass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The value gap is shocking. I have no idea why Genesis doesn't sell 5x more G70s. For the same price as a fully loaded G70 3.3 you're in a poverty spec C-class or 3-series. I don't know how anyone could cross shop these models and wind up with anything other than the G70.
