Service bulletins
What Genesis told its dealers about the 2022 Genesis G70: known faults, fixes and updates.
| Bulletin | Summary |
|---|---|
| 11006825 | This bulletin provides information to inspect and replace the front or rear wheel bearing hub assemblies for all Genesis vehicles. This procedure is applicable when noise (whirring, roaring, grinding, rumbling, etc.) is present which gets louder when driving with more speed. |
| 10253052 | Certain vehicles may experience 504 Time Out errors when using the Genesis Connected Services Mobile App. When asked to provide Modem Information (IMEI/USIM), the Head Unit (HU) displays all zeros. This bulletin describes the procedure to update the Head Unit Software to correct this condition. |
| 10253049 | Genesis applies a Paint Protection Film (PPF) on new vehicles before delivery to dealerships. It provides a barrier between the paint and contaminants, such as rail dust, acid rain, and industrial fallout. In rare cases, the paint can become clouded under the PPF. These spots are the result of moisture trapped between the PPF and the paint. |
| 10253048 | This TSB provides a procedure to diagnose and repair a transmission for the following Incorrect Ratio DTC (transmission clutch slipping more than 200 rpm in gear). |
| 10253047 | This bulletin describes the procedure to inspect and repair a G70 with the Wide Sunroof exhibiting creaking or rattling. |
| 10253043 | This bulletin provides a procedure to diagnose an 8-speed automatic transaxle with a harsh and/or delayed shift. |
| 10253042 | This bulletin provides a procedure to transfer oil pressure data to the TCU using GDS Mobile. This procedure is necessary to reduce the TCU learning time and improve the shift quality. Before replacing an automatic transmission: Input the data into the TCU using the GDS. Before replacing a TCU: Back up the oil pressure data from the old TCU into the GDS and then transfer the data to the new TCM. |
| 10253038 | This bulletin provides a procedure to transfer oil pressure data to the TCU using GDS Mobile. This procedure is necessary to reduce the TCU learning time and improve the shift quality. Before replacing an automatic transmission (Pages 2~3): Input the data from the new transmission into the TCU using the GDS. Before replacing a TCU (Pages 4~6): Back up the oil pressure data from the old TCU into the GDS and then transfer the data to the new TCM. |
| 10253031 | Certain vehicles (listed below) equipped with the HomeLink5 (Two Way Communication) mirror may experience programming and operating difficulties with the home garage system. This bulletin provides information related to some of the possible symptoms. |
| 10253026 | If you are servicing a vehicle with a transmission slipping concern, follow the Service Procedure shown below and perform a stall test. This TSB provides a procedure to test each clutch in the transmission. If the vehicle fails the stall test, replace the transmission. PASS: Stall speed is between 1700~2900 rpm (See shop manual for stall speed). FAIL: Engine revs to redline limit (6,000~6,500 rpm). If so, replace the transmission. |
