Jamo_FG · 04-18-2009, 05:06 PM

the rear not sure what side though...it sounds like my sparet tire was loose but its not.

Could be blown struts, could be bad endlinks, could be an improper spring install, really can't say much else with your post.

Jamo_FG · 04-18-2009, 05:12 PM

yah the springs were installed by me and friends in the last 1000 kms. i really hope its not blown struts.

Dealer won't do anything about it since your suspension is modified

Did you align the spring coil on the seat of the shock properly? How many miles are on the car?

Jamo_FG · 04-18-2009, 05:16 PM

Apparently progress springs for this car have noise issues. Never heard it on any other cars but that's what I read a few minutes ago.
