Default Everyone riding on Tein HA

After having them installed for about a week I am getting a rattle sound in the front , sounds like it could be poss. in the mounts. Is this normal, brought it to the dealer , they said everything looked good visually. I have the front setting on 8 and the rears on 6.

If you have upper pillow ball mounts that is normal.

I have the stock mounts too, and after a week mine started making a knocking noise. I checked it out and the nut which is on the shock shaft, (not the 2 which face opposite eachother), was loose, after that, no probs. Maybe check that?

When I first had them on for the first month. They made the same sounds too and about after that the sounds Went away! I guess, you have to wear/break them in first.

hehe, that is ultra soft!!!! 16 is the softest!!! 1 is the stiffest!, remember when adjusting, always turn clockwise until it stops turning, then turn couterclockwise and listen/feel for each click.
