knocking issue!
I have a knocking comeing from the top mount on my o/s/r shock.
im currently running ohlin fully adjustable coilovers. i have fixed the issue temporarily every time i try. it goes away for a day or 2 then comes back.
what i have tried.
tightening the 22mm bolt on top of shock.
moving the camber ever so slightly so the top plate sits more away from the car.
the 22mm bolt is tight so is all the 12mm bolts and the camber adjustment bolts.
i turned the 22mm nut the other day and the spring klunked. this also stopped it for a moment
i am now stuck for my options. the knocking sounds like metal on mental and happens on un even roads. its starting to do my head in. i cant find whats wrong with it. i have checked the spring is seated right and that everything is tight
does anyone have any possible answers or has anyone experienced this before?
