Replying to: carolinabob (Jan 30, 2008 7:53 am) I also had my front struts replaced per the TSB. It made the ride a little bit smoother. I then paid to have the rear struts replaced with the 040s. It did not make the near the difference as having the front struts replaced. Only noticeable difference is less wallow only at slow speeds. Doing the TSB is worth it since its free and makes somewhat of an improvement. But paying to have the rear struts replaced is definitely not worth it in my opinion.

Replying to: richardcot (Jan 30, 2008 5:17 pm) Just returned from a 600 miles in three days road trip. Drove my wife's base model 2005 Toyota RAV4. Amazing how much more comfortable it is than my Azera. RAV has cloth seats, no heated seats, no lumbar adjustment and base model suspension and tires.    RAV is much noisier, but felt better at end of trip than taking same trip in my Azera.    Read an article that criticized GMC adjustable lumbar seats as being uncomfortable.     Figure in the Azera, it's the seats, the heating elements, the lumbar adjuster, the suspension, the Michelin VR tires or a combination of all.
#18 of 19 Azera Strut Question/CR by carolinabob Apr 10, 2008 (12:36 pm)
The dealer replaced the -041 struts with -040's a few months ago with some improvement. I took the covers off the tops and noticed the below. The center post has a nut with a green mark on it. The round top plate under the nut has two green lines. One of the three posts holding the strut has a green dot in the center>     Does anyone know what these marks mean?     Should they all be lined up together or in some fashion? They aren't now.     If the strut is new, why are the colors all the same lime green?   Thanks guys. I know some of you are tired of hearing me bring this up, but I really do believe it can be fixed and Hyundai (and we) will be the better for it.    BTW, got a reply from Consumer Reports re: their ratings in the April 2008 issue. Based on the fact there were few problems reported in 2006, but a lot reported on the 2007, they downgraded the 2007, but kept the high recommendations for the 2008 Hyundai. Weird! Sounds like a sampling problem to me.
#19 of 19 azeras crappy ride by jasonsazera Mar 08, 2009 (1:26 pm)
my azera rides like crap too. i'll take an old camry anyday. wife is making us sell it now. im gonna try yoko avid trz. i did my research on consumer reports and basicly started looking for most comfortable tires, then wet handling characteristics from there. just waiting on a tire sale now. the michelin energy mxv4's that are on it now were rated much poorer in ride quality. however, i've seen a lexus es300 that had these on it and i bet he wasn't complaining about the ride. oh well, im gonna try the tires cause the cars not selling.
