I'm hoping for a solution to trailer sway in the Acura MDX that I am
waiting for delivery next week. The MDX has a Trailer Stability Assist
program included in the Vehicle Stability Assist system. Of course,
TSA doesn't fix whatever is causing the sway in the first place but at
least it should eliminate the effects. I've tried various solutions on
my trailer and the one with the greatest positive effect was inflating
the tires to max rated pressure. I think the fundamental problem on my
trailer is the wimpy torsion bar suspension.

If you have an airfoil shaped fin box on the trailer try fitting a
'spoiler strip' to either side of the finbox!

I had a ventus B Turbo in a Komet II trailer that used to quietly
dance behind what was normally a perfect tow vehicle. The sway was
usually kicked off by a passing car or when overtaking a big rig or
bus on the motorway. Taping 2 25 mm aluminium right angles about 1m
long, vertically about 100mm behind the leading edge of the fin box
killed the horizontal lift on the box and transformed the handling.

I often got some very strange looks from other club members about it
but I swear it worked a treat.
