2017 Genesis G80 Service and Repair Manual

This factory service and repair manual for the 2017 Genesis G80 describes a four-door sedan whose two trims are named for its two engines: the 3.8, built around a naturally aspirated 3.8L DOHC V6 of 231 cubic inches, and the 5.0, built around a naturally aspirated 5.0L DOHC V8. Both run on gasoline and neither is boosted, so the engine sections deal in valve timing, clearances, oil pressures and torque sequences rather than charge air routing, while the rest follows one body through its chassis, brake and body electrical work.

Known issues on the 2017 G80. Two recalls stand on the federal record here. In one, a short circuit inside the anti-lock brake control module can start a fire in the engine compartment whether the car is parked or driving. In the other, water works its way into the starter solenoid and shorts it, with the same result. Owner complaints run to 65, weighted heavily toward the electrical system at 19, then the power train at 9 and the engine at 8 — the circuits, driveline and engine management this manual diagrams, specifies and lays out test procedures for.
