Honda HR-V Type One Sway Bar Upgrade — Less Body Roll, More Confidence
A sway bar upgrade reduces body roll in corners and improves handling confidence. 4M Car Care is an authorised Type One installer — we fit the correct bar for your model.
The HR-V is taller than a sedan, which means it leans more in corners. Worn sway bar bushings worsen this — and a Type One sway bar upgrade can significantly reduce body roll for owners who want a more planted feel on winding Malaysian roads.
Bushing replacement vs Type One upgrade for HR-V
OEM sway bar bushing clunk is common on RU models from 80,000 km. Replacement (OEM rubber bushes): RM80–RM150. Type One sway bar upgrade for HR-V reduces body roll by 20–35% — particularly noticeable on fast roundabout exits and sweeping highway bends. We are authorised Type One installers; upgrade cost RM600–RM900 fitted.
