2021 Honda CR-V — rear end still feels floaty after new shocks

I'd want a measurement, not a hunch. Move a coil or plug on the 2021 Honda CR-V if it's cylinder-specific and see whether the code follows. If the cheap test changes it, stop and reassess. This is from a 2021 Honda CR-V in Austin. Write the result down so the next test isn't a repeat of the last one. I'd sleep better after that step, even if it finds nothing. Parking it somewhere I can hear it better next time.

Log the conditions before you spend. Swap the cheap/easy piece first on the 2021 Honda CR-V and see if the fault moves. If the cheap test changes it, stop and reassess. On “v — rear end still feels floaty,” that was the fork that mattered for me. That's the sequence I'd use. This is the filter I use when the thread starts repeating itself. Doing the boring step first on purpose.

Start with the test that can prove you wrong. Swap the cheap/easy piece first on the 2021 Honda CR-V and see if the fault moves. You'll know quickly if you're on the wrong tree. I'd want that in writing, not as a promise. Next check is the cheap one I can do in a driveway.

Ask what changed right before it started. Swap the cheap/easy piece first on the 2021 Honda CR-V and see if the fault moves. Don't erase codes until someone who can help has seen them. No need to make it theatrical. I'm in no rush to be a hero on it.
