The Equipment and Expertise Your Genesis Requires
Not every shop has the diagnostic equipment needed for your Genesis. Advanced systems require specialized tools and software. At Lake Arbor Automotive & Truck, we've made that investment because we're committed to serving the Westminster community's growing population of Genesis owners.
We invest in the same diagnostic technology as dealerships, combined with decades of luxury vehicle experience. We understand common Genesis issues, from timing chain concerns to brake system nuances. Our diagnostic equipment can communicate directly with your Genesis's multiple computer modules, reading real-time data streams, performing bi-directional controls, and accessing manufacturer-specific trouble codes.
Whether you drive a sporty G70 sedan, a refined G80, the flagship G90 luxury sedan, or one of the newer GV70 or GV80 SUV models, our technicians have the knowledge and tools to service your specific vehicle properly.
What sets our Genesis repair expertise apart:
- Factory-level diagnostic equipment
- Ongoing technical training
- Access to technical service bulletins
- Relationships with quality parts suppliers
- Experience with high-mileage Genesis vehicles
The twin-turbocharged 3.3-liter V6 engine found in many Genesis models requires specific diagnostic procedures that differ significantly from naturally aspirated engines. Our technicians understand the nuances of these powerplants, including proper turbocharger inspection techniques, intercooler system evaluation, and the critical importance of using the correct synthetic oil specifications.
The all-wheel-drive systems in Genesis vehicles also demand specialized knowledge. These electronically controlled, adaptive systems require understanding both the mechanical components and the electronic controls that manage them. Our investment in training and equipment ensures we can properly service these sophisticated drivetrains.
Comprehensive Genesis Model Coverage
Genesis G70 Repair and Service
The G70 represents Genesis's entry into the compact luxury sports sedan segment, offering impressive performance credentials. Available with either a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder or the more powerful twin-turbo 3.3-liter V6, the G70 delivers driving dynamics that enthusiasts appreciate. Our technicians understand the specific maintenance requirements these engines demand, including regular oil changes with the correct synthetic oil specification and periodic inspection of the turbocharger system components.
The G70's sport-tuned suspension requires careful attention during service. We inspect control arm bushings, ball joints, and tie rod ends for wear patterns common in performance-oriented vehicles. The available adaptive suspension system adds another layer of complexity, with electronically controlled dampers that require specialized diagnostic equipment to evaluate properly.
Genesis G80 Repair and Service
The G80 serves as Genesis's midsize luxury sedan, offering a compelling blend of comfort, technology, and performance. Common service items for the G80 include attention to the air suspension system available on certain trim levels, which requires periodic inspection of air springs, compressor operation, and system pressure. The G80's advanced safety systems, including adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist, rely on cameras and radar sensors that must be properly calibrated after certain repairs or windshield replacement.
Genesis GV80 Repair and Service
The GV80 serves as Genesis's flagship SUV, offering three-row seating and a commanding presence on Westminster roads. The GV80's available 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6 delivers impressive performance but demands precise maintenance intervals and the correct synthetic oil specification. The GV80's size and weight place significant demands on brake and suspension components. We conduct thorough inspections of these systems, looking for wear patterns that might indicate alignment issues or component degradation.
Common Genesis Issues Across All Models
Timing Chain and Engine Concerns
The 3.3-liter and 3.5-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engines, while powerful and refined, can develop timing chain stretch over time, particularly in vehicles that haven't received regular oil changes with the correct specification. We monitor timing chain condition during routine service and can detect early warning signs before they become major problems.
Engine oil consumption is another area we monitor carefully, particularly in turbocharged models. While some oil consumption is normal in turbocharged engines, excessive consumption can indicate issues with piston rings or turbocharger seals.
Electrical System Challenges
Modern Genesis vehicles incorporate extensive electronic systems, from advanced infotainment to sophisticated driver assistance features. While these systems generally prove reliable, they can occasionally develop issues that require specialized diagnostic equipment to resolve. Battery health is particularly critical in Genesis vehicles due to the extensive electronic systems that draw power even when the vehicle is off.
Brake System Maintenance
Genesis vehicles feature sophisticated brake systems designed to provide strong, fade-free stopping power. The larger brake rotors and more aggressive pad compounds used in these luxury vehicles require attention to proper break-in procedures and regular inspection. The electronic parking brake system used in Genesis vehicles adds complexity compared to traditional mechanical parking brakes.
Suspension and Steering Systems
Genesis vehicles offer refined ride quality through sophisticated suspension designs, including available adaptive damping systems. These systems require periodic inspection of control arms, bushings, and other wear items. The electric power steering systems in Genesis vehicles provide excellent road feel while eliminating the maintenance requirements of hydraulic systems.

Preventive Maintenance That Protects Your Investment
You bought a Genesis to last, not to replace in a few years. Preventive maintenance is key to longevity. We've developed comprehensive maintenance programs specifically for Genesis vehicles that address both manufacturer-recommended services and the real-world issues we've observed in these vehicles.
Our Genesis preventive maintenance program focuses on:
- Oil changes with the correct synthetic oil
- Timing chain inspection based on model intervals
- Transmission fluid service
- Brake fluid exchange
- Coolant system maintenance
- Suspension inspection
- Battery and electrical system testing
We'll help you prioritize services based on safety, longevity, and convenience. For example, Colorado's climate places unique demands on vehicles. Temperature extremes affect battery life, road salt can accelerate corrosion, and altitude affects engine performance.
