Default ? On sway and springs on 06 accord

Hi Guys,

I have an 06 accord. Since I bought it (used) I have found that it sways a lot when I make a turn whether it's sharp or not. Anyone else have that problem?

I also hear some noises near the back tires. It's not my brakes because I recently had those changed And my boyfriend and I concluded that it was the springs. So if that's the case, I'm hoping to swap out the springs for some coilovers in hopes of solving both problems. Any recommendations? I realize that there are plenty threads on coilovers however, since I don't plan on slamming my car do you guys have any recommendations that are a decent price for both issues? Anything helps.


Thanks

You can pick up the front and rear TL Type S anti-roll bars and D bushings at your local Acura dealer for under $200, that will greatly increase roll stiffness while leaving your car at stock height. Be a whole lot cheaper than going with coilovers.

When I bought my used 2001 Accord I noticed rear end noise and an alarming wiggle or sway when I'd enter a turn; ended up being a rear hub with bearings so worn I could wobble the wheel back and forth.

Thanks for the recommendation! What year Acura TL type S anti-roll bars and D bushings do you recommend?

2007 TL-S 27 mm solid front bar is 51300-SEP-A21
TL-S 20 mm solid rear bar is 52300-SEP-A11

You can either get the OE D bushings from the dealer when you order, or get urethane D bushings (which compress less and make the bars respond to lean more quickly through Energy Suspension. Get the proper bushings for the diameter of the bars.
