why does my Genesis G70 make a hissing noise under the hood

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the engine is cool.
• Disconnect the battery to avoid electrical issues during repair.

2. Inspect and Replace Vacuum Hoses

• Tools Required: Pliers, hose cutter
• Inspect all vacuum hoses for cracks or leaks.
• If damaged, remove the old hoses using pliers, and cut new hoses to the required length.
• Install the new hoses securely, ensuring they are properly connected at both ends.

3. Check the Intake Manifold

• Tools Required: Socket set, torque wrench
• Remove any components obstructing access to the intake manifold.
• Inspect the gasket and manifold for cracks or damage.
• If damaged, replace the gasket and reassemble, tightening bolts to manufacturer specifications (consult repair manual for torque values).

4. Examine the Coolant System

• Tools Required: Coolant pressure tester
• Pressurize the coolant system using a coolant pressure tester.
• Look for leaks around hoses, the radiator, and the water pump.
• Replace any defective components and refill the coolant to the proper level.
