Issue with Bilstein PSS9s
Wondering if anyone has had a similar issue...
I recently got PSS9s installed. After pushing the car somewhat to see just how good it handles, a strange noise started coming from the suspension. It seems to be coming from ALL wheels.Whenever I go over a bump, there is a clunking noise and then this, like, moaning sound (not grinding). Reminds me of the sound they always play in movies when a boat is being twisted around.
I had the dealer look at it and they couldn't see anything loose or bent. Their theory is that the springs are just making noise when compressing and decompressing. It sure doesn't sound right to me, though. I'm sure I'll eventually take it back to the shop that put them in but it's a bit of a drive and I'm super busy, so I'm looking for some answers before I do that.
Anyone else had this issue?

You removed the rubber spring hats for metal ones, they will make noise.
It can be sway bar bind, if you don't have adjustable sway bar end links, you may want to put them on & set the droop.

Good call, guys. It was the swaybar. The Neuspeed comes with some pretty short bolts and one of them popped off. The shop put in longer bolts and some LockTight and the issue is resolved. Thanks for the feedback!
