Passenger rear coilover is making a noise everytime I go over bumps or pot holes. My other coilovers aren't that loud. The coilovers are form and function type 1

Check your center top hat bolt. Usually this type of stuff requires you to check stuff for looseness.

I'm suggesting the center nut on the top hat. If you google "civic rear tophat", it should come up with images. The top hats have a center nut. Those can come loose. Torque spec should be like 22LB-FT
