Settle the ride and manage tire contact on your Chevrolet Sonic with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 3330039, a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube damper that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2012-2020 Chevrolet Sonic (front right position). See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-level fitment. KYB classifies the Excel-G as OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket) — it's built on the same assembly lines and calibrated to restore the vehicle's originally designed damping rather than change it.
- Twin-tube, gas-charged design: a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut built with OE-quality components.
- Triple-lip fluid seal: uses a triple-lip fluid seal to reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Strong strut body: thick strut bodies and brackets help minimize flex to maintain correct alignment.
- Vehicle-specific valving: hand-assembled damping valves are calibrated to manage tire contact, steering response and body movement.
KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5882) and protecting the strut with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB101). Worn or leaking struts may show up as a bouncy ride, poor body control, or uneven tire wear — if the original strut is the cause, this replaces it.
