2012 Hyundai Azera Service and Repair Manual

Hyundai built the 2012 Azera around a single V6 powertrain, and this factory service and repair manual is matched to that exact year, engine and trim — every specification and tightening sequence in it is the figure Hyundai published for this sedan, not a number carried over from the 2011 or 2013 model year.

Engines covered

• 3.3L V6 — DOHC, naturally aspirated, gasoline

Body styles covered

• 4-door sedan

Trims covered

• Base

Known issues on the 2012 Azera. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. Campaign 13V264000 covers the frontal air bag sensor and control module: on model year 2012–2013 Azera vehicles manufactured May 22, 2012 through November 23, 2012, the occupant detection system may fail, and if the occupant is incorrectly classified that comes into play in a crash necessitating airbag deployment. Campaign 23V651000 covers the hydraulic service brakes — the antilock and traction control system — on a group of 2011–2015 Hyundai models that includes the 2012–2015 Azera; an engine compartment fire while parked or driving can increase the risk of injury. Owners have filed 82 complaints for the year and Hyundai has issued 62 technical service bulletins. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

Whether you are diagnosing the occupant detection system, working through the antilock brake system, or keeping the 3.3L V6 on its service schedule, it holds you to Hyundai's own procedure for your specific 2012 Azera.
