rear clunking

Post by amandhanji »

It's been around 10 months since I fitted my car with jamex coil overs. Some people had good experience with them most haven't. I haven't still the rear coil adjusters haven't settled in and when I go over any bump it clunks. It's really embarrasing. Can someone tell me what to do because when I remove the adjuster the exhaust starts banging the rear beam.

if you twist the exhaust up then clamp it up tight it shouldnt clunk, its either this or the spring for your rear load sensor.

Should the rear coil adjuster be on top or bottom of the rear springs

It's not the standard exhaust its a sportex.

Anyone else had Coilovers fitted? I'd just want to know which side you placed the adjuster? Top or bottom of the rear spring.
