Last Fall I have sold my 09 BMW 335i which had unbelievable handling . I like my gs350 better in most aspects; ribs not bruised from doing XX mph on ramps , more comfortable, not attracting cops (had a chance to max the speed on autobahn when I've picked her up in Munich, no comments on US), feels more luxuries, my wife is not , etc.

One thing I would like to improve on my GS is handling when cornering which is terrible.

I am looking at sway bars to correct this. I have almost bought the F-sport set until I have read threads here complaining about knocking noise that has not been corrected by Lexus yet. So looks like F-sport are not a solution.

I have an '08 GS350 RWD. What other sway bars have you used and had a good experience?

 

unfortunately, i don't think there is another solution at this point besides fsport

 

Not the news I was looking for. Looks like will have to wait until Lexus come up with an updated f-sport kit. Thanks!

 

if my understanding about the f-sport knocking problem is correct, it's the bushings that are the problem. if you can fabricate a fix (either by getting aftermarket bushings or find a creative way to get rid of the knocking), the sways will work fine.

 

Unfortunetely I am not that creative and probably not the easiest thing to fabrickate bushings as I am sure we would see DIY by someone.

 

i think some people put some kind of rubber band of so, basically to avoid the bar from swinging left and right. but of course, if i were you, i wouldn't get anything unless lexus fixes the problem (which they are so quiet about so far)

 

Lexus has NOT fixed a damn thing. Stay away from the F sport sway bars ( and intake for that matter). I have them and I am still dealing with the occasional knock. It still pisses me off.

 

I appreciate all feedbacks. Looks like for now I will wait and enjoy knock free ride.

Mr. Toyoda gave a nice speech to lawmakers today saying they will listen better and improve commnication so complains can get to right management. Maybe it is time for everyone to complain about the sway bar, noisy dashboard, etc.. Maybe it will get someone's attention there this time around.
