? for people with BC coils on the g35x.

Ever since i had my BC Coilover installed on my 05 g35x, Ive been getting a squeak/rattle from the rear passenger side. Only happens everytime i go over a bump, it gets worse when its humid or rainy. Ive tried tighten everything and lubing all bushings, still no help.

Anybody else has this problem? is there a fix for this?

thanks

^is it a rattle queak or a crack?
my front suspension cracks when the body flexes, i.e going into driveways or over bumps when the body of the vehicle is flexing in one directions (sideways)
the cracks come from the front and rear, infiniti tech told me my end links on the rear were bad. cant verify if this is true or not but i will replace them sometime.
i dont notice anything when in normal freeway/street driving

did you happen to take off the front endlinks from the control arm? When i did mine i loosened those and when i went to go tighten it, i didnt jack up the control arm so it "sat" good in the hole, so every bump sounded like something was look. Kind of like metal on metal.

Again thos is for the front, just a little FYI

did you ever put on stock suspension to see if noise is gone?

I'm back in winter mode with stock suspension and i have a thump on driver side rear that wasn't present when i had the coilovers on, only on stock stuff over bumps or tight turns at low speeds, i think its the toe bolt but thats me.

I have a creak when I turn right now since I put on my bc coils. Seems to only happen on certain days. Some days its not there. It doesnt happen when I turn left.

The hitting you are hearing is the a arm hitting the strut tower. Raise it up some. Even the rwd guys have this problem.
