Cooling system
Check cooling system components, such
as radiator, coolant reservoir, hoses and
connections for leakage and damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
Engine coolant/Liquid-cooled
intercooler coolant
The coolant should be changed at the
intervals specified in the maintenance
schedule.
Automatic transmission fluid
The automatic transmission fluid level
does not need to be checked under
normal usage conditions.
Have the automatic transmission fluid
changed by an authorized retailer of
Genesis Branded products according to
the maintenance schedule.
The color of a new automatic
transmission fluid is red. As the vehicle is
driven, the automatic transmission fluid
begins to look darker.
This is normal and the automatic
transmission fluid does not need to be
replaced based on the color change.
Only use the automatic transmission fluid
specified in the "Recommended
Lubricants And Capacities" section in
Chapter 2 to prevent transmission
damage.
Brake hoses and lines
Visually check for proper installation,
chafing, cracks, deterioration and any
leakage. Replace any deteriorated or
damaged parts immediately.
Brake fluid
Check the brake fluid level in the brake
fluid reservoir. The level should be
between the MIN and the MAX marks on
the side of the reservoir. Use only
hydraulic brake fluid conforming to DOT 4
specification.
Parking brake
Inspect the parking brake system
including the parking brake pedal and
cables.
Brake discs, pads, calipers and
rotors
Check the pads, the disc, and the rotor for
any excessive wear-out. Inspect calipers
for any fluid leakage.
Exhaust pipe and muffler
Visually inspect the exhaust pipes,
muffler and hangers for cracks,
deterioration, or damage. Start the
engine and listen carefully for any exhaust
gas leakage. Tighten connections or
replace parts as necessary.
Suspension mounting bolts
Check the suspension connections for
looseness or damage. Retighten to the
specified torque.
Steering gear box, linkage &
boots/lower arm ball joint
With the vehicle stopped and the engine
off, check for excessive free-play in the
steering wheel. Check the linkage for
bends or damage. Check the dust boots
and ball joints for deterioration, cracks, or
damage.
Replace any damaged parts.
