Problem with Tein Coils and EDFC, please advise

Hey Guys,
Had my tein flex coilovers and EDFC installed for a week now. Looks damn good, drives beter, and the drop is amazing. Only thing is that there seems to be a clicking sound from the back of the car, mostly the right (passenger) side. Sounds like there is a nut or bolt loose or something. I got everything off and back on just to check if I missed or misplaced something. Everything looks fine to me. Anyone face this probelm before, if not, is there anyone I can call or talk to about this problem.
I read a thread that some guys are getting their axles fixed at the dealership due to a factory defect or something. I didnt really get it, but I doubt it has any connection. Can someone elaborate please.

Arigatou...

Let me know your thoughts guys....

When I first had mine installed almost a year ago, both the rears came loose. If they didn't use thread fastener, this may very well be the problem. If you can get in there to tighten them, do it, otherwise carefully drive it back to where you had them installed and have them tighten it all up.

This forum works best when people post solutions, if you know something please take a moment to tell everyone out in the open. Unless your not sure you acutally have the right answer, then I certainly do understand wanting to pm instead.

To help one, or many.

hi everyone again, i know he mentioned help from guys and im a girl, but here it goes... i just wanted to offer my help as well, to him regarding his problem with his teins by messaging because i am trying to follow the forum guidelines since I am not a vendor on this site... but give street image a try in baldwin park, you can call and maybe someone there can help you out. i know someone who had a similar sounding problem and it was diagnosed there and fixed there... just my two cents...

re check all the suspension points on that side. sounds like something is loose. it's not too common when modifying suspensions, but it does happen.
