Help restore the designed control and handling of your 2011 Hyundai Sonata with the KYB Excel-G Suspension Strut 3340204. This nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut drops in at the front-left position and is built on the same KYB assembly lines as the company's original-equipment units, using OE-quality components calibrated to bring back the vehicle's original, designed performance rather than change it — the approach KYB classifies as OEA (Original Equipment for the Aftermarket).
- Triple-lip fluid seal: helps reduce the chance of oil and gas leaking out.
- Vehicle-specific damping valves: hand assembled in-house to manage tire contact, steering response, and body movement.
- Strong, thick strut body and brackets: among the thickest in the industry to minimize flex and help maintain correct alignment.
- Supports electronic safety systems: helps keep them performing as designed by keeping the suspension operating as the manufacturer intended.
A #1 recommended OE replacement choice for Asian cars, made in the USA. KYB recommends installing new strut mounts (part number SM5777) and protecting the strut with a KYB Strut Boot (part number SB116). Sold individually — replace struts in axle pairs for balanced ride and handling.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this strut fit my vehicle?
It is a direct-fit replacement for the front-left position on the 2011 Hyundai Sonata. See the Buyer's Guide tab to confirm the fit for your vehicle.
What position does this strut cover?
This is the front-left (driver-side front) strut. It is sold individually, so order the matching side separately if you need both.
What type of strut is the KYB Excel-G?
It is a nitrogen gas-charged, twin-tube strut built on KYB's OE assembly lines with OE-quality components, calibrated to restore the vehicle's original designed performance.
Should I replace both struts at the same time?
KYB struts are sold individually. Replacing both struts on an axle as a pair is recommended for balanced, even ride and handling.
Are strut mounts or a boot included?
