I just got my coilovers installed but for some reason when i drive I hear this weird clunking noise !! It is annoying , I have no idea Wut it is , if there is anyone who might know or has insight to this I would greatly appreciate it .

 

I heard it had something to do with torque down the strut ??

 

Hey call me 562 805 4476

 

Have you made sure that everything is torqued down properly? cause this is a common issue when CO are not torqued down perfectly, if they are then check and make sure that the nut that sits on top of the coil over is tightened properly as well.

If all that is correct then it could be the sound of metal hitting metal in which case you can try to stuff some rubber insert that fits on top of the coils and where it meets the cars metal since i think you said its the rear where the coil is separate

 

If they were new, there's no reason the top nut should be loose at all.

Sounds like an install error.

 

i had a similar issue when I had just installed my tein flexes, what I did was tighten the top of the coil over, i believe it was the damper ****, and it fixed my problem.

 

Thx to all of u that help w some advice , they r new just had them put on yesterday and everything was cked 4times , so a spoke w a friend and he said its the nut on the top of the coilovers which we didn't even think of tightening since they were new -_-

 

Which coils?

^ Read that over. I havent really dont it yet but i get this rattle that sounds like something loose in my trunk but i keep getting told that its my coilover. If its like a hard clunk on turns and stuff it could be your sway bar. Mine had disconnected in the front and every hard turn it would hit something.

 

I had the same issue, just on the back rear right. I have BC racing Coils, i just re-torqued all the bolts down on the rear and it seems to have went away for the most part.

 

i have the same problem with my car fo rmonths i have bc coilovers..

 

should check if anything is loose or it maybe bottom out?
