Hyundai's 3.8L V6 engine (G6DA, G6DJ, and G6DK) is the biggest Lambda family engine, firstly introduced in 2005. This power unit is installed in Hyundai and KIA large sedans, full-size minivans, and heavy SUVs. The Lambda RS version is offered for sporty models such as Hyundai Genesis Coupe, and luxury cars - Hyundai Genesis, Kia Quoris, and Genesis G80.
Like the 3.3L MPI, the 3.8L version has an aluminum open-deck type cylinder block and aluminum alloy cylinder heads. There are four valves for each cylinder: two intake and two exhaust valves. The engine is DOHC type. Camshafts are chain-driven (engine has two timing chains). The valvetrain doesn't have hydraulic tappets. Solid buckets are used instead, which require valve clearance adjustment using shims every 60,000 miles (100,000 km). The early 3.8 Lambda MPI engines had variable valve timing on the intake side only - CVVT. In 2009, the manufacturer introduced the second generation of the Lambda engine series - Lambda II. The 3.8 Lambda II MPI features a CVVT on the exhaust side as well - Dual CVVT. Lambda II MPI engines also produce slightly more power and torque. MPI refers to a multipoint fuel injection system where fuel is injected into the intake ports through the fuel injectors in front of the intake valves. The intake manifold is aluminum. The throttle body is electronically controlled.
