Encountering problems on your vehicle is particularly annoying, in addition to the economic burden that these complications signify, one must also add the time lost with a non-functional Genesis G80 and the time spent to establish and solve the malfunction. On the other hand, some problems are less severe than others, which is not to say that they do not get worried us. Today we are going to look into a trouble that can happen to everyone, perceiving vibrations at acceleration on Genesis G80. This trouble can often be tricky to perceive but it must be dealt with. We will so begin our content with the origins of these vibrations on Genesis G80, then, with the answers you have to reduce or stop these tremors.
Why does my Genesis G80 produce vibrations when accelerating?
So let’s begin our content with the origins of this sort of trouble on your car. You should already know that an engine, specifically if it is ancient or if it has been driven quite a bit, can naturally vibrate without being a trouble behind it. Large diesel engines, specifically those with a lot of torque, can cause this form of impression, both at idle and when accelerating.
I feel vibrations on my Genesis G80 only when accelerating
Let’s take the most interesting circumstance for us in this content. The simple fact that you undergo trembling on your Genesis G80 during your acceleration phases, in this scenario you will have to check the condition of several components because several of elements can be at the origin of these vibrations and even if you are unfortunate a mix of several of them may also be possible, here is the list of components that can be involved.
- Turbo: If the turbo of your Genesis G80 is faulty, it may cause vibrations that you will feel when you accelerate at the moment it is turned on.
- The turbo pressure sensor: This sensor will manage the pressure exerted in the turbo of your car, if it fails it may disturb the performance of your turbo and deliver vibrations that you may feel during acceleration of your Genesis G80.
- If the turbo is punctured or harmed, the effect will be similar, the power supply of your turbo will be disrupted and its performance too. Make sure you visually examine their state.

I’m having vibrations on my Genesis G80 at acceleration and deceleration
We will now focus on the situation where you feel vibrations on your Genesis G80 when you are accelerating but also when you are idling. If you only feel vibrations when you are idling on your Genesis G80, please seek advice from our content focused on this trouble to remedy your problem. If, alternatively, you detect that your Genesis G80 vibrates when accelerating but also when it is stopped, here is the list of things to examine:
- EGR valve: In reality this valve which controls the return of exhaust gases for pollution standards can become dirty and bother the evacuation of exhaust gases which can cause Genesis G80 vibrates when accelerating but also when stopped.
- Injectors: Your injectors that regulating the fuel/air mixture flow may be dirty or damaged, which will discharge the wrong amount of mixture and thus prevent your engine block from working correctly, it is even possible that one or more of your cylinders are not running properly.
- Fuel Filter: Like the injectors, if the filter is blocked it will not let the fuel pass properly and therefore bother the operation of your Genesis G80, up to the point of leading to vibrations during acceleration.
Here are the main triggers of a Genesis G80 that vibrates at acceleration
What can I do to stop the vibration when I accelerate on my Genesis G80? What can I do?
Finally, in this last part, we will tell you the possibilities available to you to get over these tremors on your car when you accelerate. Here is the best attitude to adopt based on the component that is concerned:
- Turbo: If your turbo starts all these vibrations when you accelerate your Genesis G80, it will be good for you to control all the components connected to it because changing a complete turbo is a big budget and most of the time the trouble does not come specifically from the turbo. So make sure check out your turbo pressure sensor, your flowmeter, the EGR valve and the hoses of your turbo. Otherwise take your Genesis G80 to your workshop.
- EGR valve: The EGR valve has the advantage that it is more often than not easy to access and simple to disassemble/clean. You can always check out it and clean it, for this see our content on cleaning the EGR valve of an Genesis G80.
- Injectors: Injectors are very fragile components and a few harmful particles may be enough to bother their operation. Use a fuel additive to simply clean the injectors, if this is not enough you will have to go to a expert.
- Fuel Filter: If it is the fuel filter, simply change it. A fuel filter doesn’t clean itself, so if it is clogged you will only have to replace it with a new one.
Now you have all the info you need to discover the cause of the vibrations at acceleration on your Genesis G80. If you don’t feel able to do certain operations don’t hesitate to go to your mechanic.
