Default Compliance Bushing PICS...Bad???

AV6-6 Sdn

I feel a bobble over bumps when braking and cruising.
Ball joints seem tight.
All other bushings look solid.
Can't feel any movement in CV joints.
Any input before visit to the shop?

RIGHT:



Small tears?

more PICS?

Bad. No, beyond bad. Those are terrible and will lead to strut failure.

Replace please... while you can continue to drive those, handling is severely compromised.

I don't know if you guys are looking at the same pictures that I am, but those are barely cracked... No need at all to replace them at all.

The connection point of the bushings is on the left and right of the pictures, not bottom.

LOL those are bad? no those are 20% torn we recommend replacement @ 50% torn or when someone comes in complaining about a knocking noise becuase they are broken. i have NOT seen a strut failure from cracked bushings

also this job is quite easy to do and the bushings are only about 25 bucks a piece you could do it yourself if you have access to a press or a friend who works for honda/acura and has the tool for on car service
