Ran fine when I got it but I switched to amsoil and it has changed the sound of cold starts. MUCH QUIETER!! and seems to have smoothed out the idle over time.
My daughters Sonata just did this exactly. Had to replace starter and now works great.
Went with KYB struts, they got several good reviews compared to OEM
Put these on my wife’s car (2011 Sonata 2.0T) and they’re great. Quiet, handle well, do good in all weather. Plus they’re relatively cheap in comparison.
I have an 07 with the 2.4 with 170,000km on it. I change my oil myself every 5000km, and use the Hyundai OEM blue filters. Still runs like a dream.
General Altimax Artic and Gislaved Nordfrost 100. Both are well rounded winter tires (dry cold, wet, ice, snow). They are from a reputable brand (Continental) and reasonably priced.
i have run winterforce tires (firestones budget snow tires) with great success on my 2004 Sonata car is useless without em
My original spark plugs lasted over 150k km. Replacing them corrected a weird accel issue (power drop on full accel).
In January 2021, with about 40k miles, the coils went bad. I replaced them with quality Duralast coils (made by Bosch) and new iridium spark plugs. Fast forward 6 months, and I had a misfire again in cylinder 2, so I am now on my 3rd set in less than a year. The Duralast coils have a lifetime warranty, so whenever they go bad, I can just swap them out at Autozone for no money, and it takes all of 10 minutes to swap them. But I dont want my car misfiring and breaking down at an inopportune time.
Bosch Icon works not as good on my Sonata for some reason. The driver side squeal right away if it's only raining lightly, and the wipers go when I'm waiting for the green light. When the car is moving it's better. If I do a few squirts of washer it will go smoothly for a few minutes then back to squealing.
