HT or anyone,

Have you been involved with any of the rear suspension "K-Thunking" problem
yet? If so, has it been resolved or at least diagnosed?

On some other forums I monitor, the natives are getting restless!

Many thanks,,,
 
I used to have a k-thunk in the rear of my '74 Delta 88...turned out to be
the clothes hanger holding up the tail pipe wasn't twisted tight enough.

Just kidding....bet you're talking about the '06 Sonata. My Sonata has NO
k-thunk, but I'm sure that Matt will post waxing poetic about the situation.
 
Had a 2000 Sonata with alot of rear suspension noise. In fact, that year
in Consumer Reports they even addressed it as a setback in quality. I
took the problem to the Regional Sales Manager for my area because it
was so annoying and he decided to give oil filled shocks a try on it. It
helped considerably . This may or may not be related to your 2006
Sonata . (only HyundaiTech knows for sure !)

This is very disappointing. The Sonata is a great car but it has
one rather serious flaw which is preventing me from buying it. The
front and rear suspensions are much too noisy. At low speeds, i.e
about 20-35 mph, the smallest bumps become quite noticeable and
potholes are really loud. I have noticed this on one Sonata 2006 V6
rental
and on several test drives of 2006, 4 cylinder models. The V6s appear
to
be a bit quieter than the 4 cylinder models.
