Help please, buying rod online

Bettyboop

Failed on suspension today at NCT. Spent over €500 already and now need a Pahard Rod. Can somone explain what it is I need to buy? I have looked online but it talks about bushings bar's axles and small components. I want to buy online as cheaper.
I have a Honda Hrv 2003 4wd 1.6 petrol. Any help to point me in the right direction appreciate.

How do you know it’s cheaper to buy online when you don’t even know what part you need to buy?

Take the car and fail sheet to a good independent mechanic, maybe someone recommended by a friend.

micksgarage is out of stock, but you can see a picture of what you're looking for here, bottom row...

This one is from Japan, for E66, good pictures of it, but it looks completely different to previous part. You'll have to use a forwarding service...

As someone with ZERO interest in cars, I wouldn't be bothered with any of that. Just throw it into a garage and let them get it for you.

At the very least go to a garage and price the job. They should have an idea of what that component will cost, and whether or not it comes with any necessary replacement bushings etc.

Give you a better idea of whether potential savings are worth the time/hassle of shopping online etc

That part is not expensive from Honda, and genuine parts especially suspension parts are always better quality than aftermarket stuff.
I think its somewhere around 90 euro or thereabouts.

Don't buy online unless instructed by a mechanic to do so.
It won't say you money and a mechanic might not want to fit a part they didn't source themselves.
