Strut Problem?? '08 TL-S

I had a rear knocking noise when driving slow (<35mph) that would sound like something rattling in the trunk, Rear Left.

Took into Acura, they replaced both rear struts under warranty.

About a week later I begin hearing the knocking/clunking in the FRONT LEFT of the car.

What the heck ?! Is this a known problem? Kinda worries me how all the struts can go bad on a 2008 already...

There was a TSB on a similar issue for, iirc, early 2007 TL-S's.

AFAIK it's not an ongoing problem with all TL-S's.

Look for the TSB here: https://acurazine.com/forums/3g-tl-2004-2008-93/3g-tl-technical-service-bulletins-tsbs-3g-garage-j-016-a-613659/


Read the instructions at the beginning of the post to access the TSB's.

I have a 08 Type S also. The dealership just replaced my rear driver side strut last week due to the same noise you had. Luckily it was covered under warranty. Haven't had any issue since then, but I'll keep an ear out for anything new.
