Oil Maintenance and Service Tips
Oil Check Procedures
Check engine oil level when the vehicle is parked on level ground with the engine at operating temperature. Allow the engine to sit for 5 minutes after shutting off before checking the dipstick for an accurate reading. Maintain oil level between the minimum and maximum marks to ensure proper lubrication and engine protection.
Oil Change Best Practices
Use only manufacturer-approved full synthetic oil that meets the specified viscosity requirements for your model year. Replace the oil filter during every oil change to maintain proper filtration and prevent contaminant buildup. Torque the drain plug to specification using a calibrated torque wrench to prevent leaks or damage.
Service Intervals
Genesis recommends oil changes every 7,500 miles or 12 months under normal driving conditions. Severe driving conditions including frequent short trips, extensive idling, dusty environments, or extreme temperatures may require more frequent service intervals at 3,000 to 5,000 miles. Follow the maintenance reminder system and consult your owner’s manual for specific recommendations.
FAQs
What kind of oil does a Genesis G90 use?
The Genesis G90 requires full synthetic motor oil with viscosity ranging from SAE 5W-30 for 2017 models to SAE 5W-20 for 2018-2021 models, and SAE 0W-20 for 2022 and newer second-generation models. Using manufacturer-specified synthetic oil ensures optimal engine protection and performance.
How much oil does a Genesis G90 take?
Genesis G90 oil capacity varies by engine and drivetrain, ranging from 7.3 quarts for the 3.8L V6 to 9.7 quarts for the 5.0L V8 AWD. The second-generation 3.5L twin-turbo engine uses 7.4 quarts of oil. Always verify the specific capacity for your model year and engine configuration.
What is the recommended oil type for a Genesis G90?
Genesis recommends full synthetic motor oil for all G90 models to provide superior protection under high temperatures and demanding conditions. Synthetic oil offers better flow characteristics at cold temperatures and maintains viscosity stability throughout the oil change interval.
What is the oil change interval for a Genesis G90?
The recommended oil change interval for Genesis G90 models is every 7,500 miles or 12 months, whichever comes first. Vehicles operated under severe conditions may require more frequent changes at 3,000 to 5,000 mile intervals.
Can I use 5W-30 instead of 5W-20 in my Genesis G90?
Using oil viscosity different from manufacturer specifications can affect fuel economy and engine protection. Genesis changed from 5W-30 to 5W-20 in 2018 for improved efficiency, so follow the viscosity recommendation listed in your owner’s manual for optimal performance.
What oil filter does a Genesis G90 use?
Genesis G90 models typically use OEM oil filter part numbers 26320-3LTA0 or 26320-3F500 depending on the engine. Compatible aftermarket filters include Mobil 1 M1-110A, K&N HP-1017, Bosch 3330, and Fram XG10060.
Conclusion
Understanding your Genesis G90 engine oil specifications is critical for maintaining reliability and performance. The oil capacity ranges from 7.3 to 9.7 quarts depending on engine and drivetrain, with viscosity requirements varying from 5W-30 in early models to 0W-20 in the current generation. Always use manufacturer-approved full synthetic oil and follow the recommended 7,500 mile service interval to protect your investment and ensure optimal engine longevity.
