Knocking noised cured :D

awesome! thanks for letting us know mate

did you have the same issues with braking and setting off yeh?

Yeah m8 did so just so glad the noise has stopped!

Update: my arb is touching or rubbing on full lock now since the mondeo links have been put on.

Like I say with ap/weitec shorter links arent needed. with shorter links youll cause more issues. Go back to standard matey.

I'm am m8 and I'm going to raise it up quite a bit because I'm scunnard with it!

the knocking im getting has now turned into a sort of creaking noise now coming from the drivers side coilover (i think!)

only happens when slowing down to a stop or setting off as the weight shifts on or off the coilover

does this still sound like coil slap hux mate?

i hope so mate!!!

Coilover has to be removed dude :( as its basically a hose that you slide over the coil. Ill get a pic in a couple of mins.

Yeah its the coils mate, no doubt in my mind.

Here you go.

Make sure they aint sending your coilover socks (these protect from road grim) you want the hose pictured which stops the noise.

For Andy: raising the suspension wont get rid of the noise caused by the coils touching. You may have a different issue, who knows but if its the same as biggy then it wont help.

Nice thanks for the pics!

£20 bucks for that :0

I don't know what the prob is buddy :S

Yeah I thought 22 for the above would be dear, thats why i mentioned making sure they aint sending him coilover socks.

Thought that myself buddy seems really steep for tubing. I'm going to put my standard droplinks on and maybe change my top mounts :S

The sleeves are coming from weitec.

Will confirm with Damien what they are

I have no choice really!

Shame they don't include the stuff in the box as standard.

I heard if you contact weitec they send it foc

Would that be the same for AP?
