Well I installed my struts and coild last night, and I am having one issue.
When I turn the car, I hear a knocking noise, It sounds like it is the srping. It only happens if I turn it more then just a little bit, and sometimes it doesn't even happen. I am only getting this noise from the front, on the pasenger side? Any ideas?
Thank you.
if there brand new springs then they might need some time to set in, or get broken in. mine did the same thing for a couple days, now it doesnt make any noise what so ever....
They are new on my car, and they have been sitting in my garage for almost 6 months, They are used however, but I was told that they were on a show car, and it was rarely driven.
What brand coils are they?
they are the RKsport Coil Overs
Could the problem be in the Strur mounts? Or in some bearings?
The coilovers should have come with new bearings. Did you follow the directions closely? In particular the tophat had to be turned upside down so the new bearings have something to sit against.
I bought these used, they did not come with any directions, do you know of any online ones? I don't know if I was looking at the right thing, but if I think was a bearing, is truely one I think it is shot. Know where I can get one?
rksport has them on there web site ... i have rksport coils mine dont make noise
Ah crap. RK just redid their website today. It's terrible. Looks 100% worse than before. And I can't find the directions anymore.
If the bearings are shot or missing, then that's likely your problem.
You can get new ones from Motion Industries. Do a search. I've posted all the specs here on what you need.
thanks guys! I will order new bearings, and tell ya if it works.
