smudgedon Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 Since putting the BC Racing coilovers and the SPC front and rear camber arms, I'm getting a series of knocks and clunks over bumps Seems to be worse when it's cold, but this could just be me imagining things The most noticeable over slight bumps on the road is the rear left. A sort of heavy plastic knocking noise Large holes in the road (which I obviously try to avoid) cause a loud crash and the car jolts out of the hole And the last one is over speedbumps, if I don't take them extremely slowly, there is a sort of clicking noise as the front/rear wheels go up and down over the bump Kaizer had a look over everything when the service was done a few weeks back and couldn't see anything untoward, any suggestions for me to check out? Handling is fine but it's just a slightly worrying. If anything though, the car feels to dip more to the left when turning right like round a roundabout, when compared to how it feels when turning left Any advice appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony.r123 Posted March 10, 2013 Share Posted March 10, 2013 I've got BC racing coilovers fitted to my wife's celica, they have alloy top mounts which are a lot noisier than standard not sure if the Zed ones are the same? They transfer much more noise and jolts through the chasis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smudgedon Posted March 11, 2013 Author Share Posted March 11, 2013 Bump Any ideas? I realise it's a difficult question without hearing it yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4RE Leather Posted March 11, 2013 Share Posted March 11, 2013 Ask the supplier of the coilovers to help you? Or as he will know. You may have to go through the proceedure with him:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smudgedon Posted March 12, 2013 Author Share Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) Alex doesn't talk to me after I asked him what he wanted for a part and he got offended for some reason.... Oh well Any other ideas people? Edited March 12, 2013 by smudgedon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4RE Leather Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) I cant believe for one moment that Alex is not talking to you because you asked the price of something? Unless it was the manor that you asked him, which at times is very abrupt! Anyway back to the task at hand. Yes Chris brooklands told me what he bet it was but I cant remember what they are. Aparantly you 4got to tighten them back up? I just waiting for him to come back with the answer.

Doubt it's anything like that as Darren is fairly thorough with his methods and Sly at Kaizer checked everything over too I'm yet to get under her and check everything myself though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
