Hey everyone,
The past weekend, i dropped my G off at a friend's shop to put the KW V3s in finally. Now after 4 days and 300+ kms of driving, my front shocks and springs are still clunking very badly when going over bumps. I know suspensions need time to settle, but this clunk is getting really annoying.
This is my first set of coilovers ever, so maybe i just need to give it more time, but being that my car is a DD, i'm not liking it so far.
If any of you have any advise or solutions to this issue, please let me know.
Thanks in advance

 

Not normal. Something's probably loose. Check torque on fasteners. Nut on sway bar end link, nut holding strut to lower arm, 3 nuts holding upper spring perch to chassis, nut holding spring perch to strut.

 

I will check all of the items above, thanks. Also would you think it might be caused by reusing the stock top hat?

 

No, that shouldn't be an issue.

 

ok, thanks. any advise on the torque specs?

 

I just had mine put on Tuesday. No issues so far.

 

Look in the stickies for the FSM for your year. All you need is in there.

 

Do the KWs use the factory bump stops? or is that replaced all together?

 

Hmm if they used air tools to tighten it up it could be the problem? Loosen them up, re torque and apply WD40 or synthetic motor oil. Same thing happen to me on my BC coilovers and that's how i fixed it.
