15 Suspension Replace/Upgrade

My ‘15 MDX SH-Tech has 130,000 miles and the suspension is getting progressively softer. No plans on replacing the car for at least 2 to 4 years and expect to average about 10 to 12k miles per year.

I know next to nothing about MDX suspensions and won’t be doing the work myself. I’m looking for suggestions on what my options are. Particularly interested in what suspension work you’ve done. Thanks!

I'm sure the strut assemblies are shot by now. I'm only at 60k miles and the dealer identified a leaking strut on the passenger side. Quoted $2K for both front struts...the vehicle still rides great so I'm putting it off for now.

The good news/bad news is that the OEM struts readily are available online, but they don't come as a complete assembly, and there are no KYB-level replacements, so it may not be something you want to tackle in your driveway unless you are comfortable with a spring compressor.
