Default Finally is Here - TSIB for F-SPORT Sway Bars!!!
I just got an e-mail from service department's GM at Sewell, stated that:

"We have been sent a “pre-release” sway bar bushing set that we would like to install on your car. There will be an upcoming TSIB and these will be the bushings that will be used. The TSIB is still being written at this time."

I will be bring my toy in tomorrow, I will let you know if it does eliminate the knocking!!!

I will try to post the official TSIB number once I get my toy back !!!

hopefully after this, besides "moving forward", they can also do a "moving sideway" slogan

If it works, then yes, eventually. BUT I would imagine that all of the stock out there now would be sold with the old bushings and you would have to bring it in and complain after the fact in order to get the new ones installed.

It sounds like it's currently still in a beta test phase. The fix might not be available to everybody for some time yet.
