I have a question for all TLs with Comptech springs (preferable the grey ones).

I understand that there have been a lot of problems with the "older grey" comptech springs. I am curious to know if all grey ct springs are bad, or if it is just the possibility of them going bad(breaking). You may have read my other thread about having rubbing issues but I have not been able to get a good answer.

Just wondering if other guys have had the same problem with the grey springs?

 

Just got off the phone with Acura of Lynwood and Comptech and they told me their springs have always been silver even to this day and also that all 3rd Gen. TL springs have always been made by Eibach. Is true? Are they Fu*kin with me?

 

I think the new CT springs are black, and they are made by eibach.

i got the light grey ones

 

Hit up "excelerate" on the forums, he can give you a sick deal on the comptech springs. 135 shipped

 

that's where I got mine.(light grey) are the good ones black or grey?

 

If you find out let me know .. I have a set sitting in the box waiting to go on next month. I'm sure Excelerate wouldn't sell us junk being a sponsor here.

 

u got them from the ct spring sale?

 

yup

I only had the comptech's on for a couple weeks but they seem ok for now.(ride wise)

what should you watch out for?why are the light grey's "bad"?

fyi: I did 3 suspensions on my cl. I said I'm not slamming the tl, but for some strange reason I see my tl slammed on coilovers in the future.:shakehead

not a prob, I don't think so either.I've heard nothing but good about excell......

 

i think mine are grey color...i just installed it yesterday..got it from execelerate/

 

^^^Same here. Mine, do sag a little in the back, but that may be because my rear shocks are about to go...

 

There have never been any problems with the 3rd gen TL springs, only a few 2nd gen CL/TL springs from a long time ago. Comptech had Eibach make all their springs for the 3rd gen TL.
