i just installed my friends eibach springs on his '02 honda accord v6...and it makes this wobbling noise when drivin over speed bumps and on sharp turns... what is wrong with this... i've checked the top strut bolt on it and it seemed to be loose...then i tightened it as hard as i could...and he still says that it makes that noise... it only makes the noise on the front passenger side strut... can u guys help on what to do to fix this problem... thanks in advance guys...

 

did you remove the springs and install the new ones on the struts or did someone else with a spring compressor?

is this still on stock strut?

EDIT:

also for the best diagnoses you might wanna walk us through the steps you took to remove/ disassemble and then reassemble/ install the springs struts?

 

i did them myself...first to take them out the first time...i just used a piece of wood and uncompressed the spring but then i couldnt put the eibach ones on so i had to get a manual compressor... yes...the eibach springs are still on the stock strut... i cant figure out whats making the noise? do i have to take it out again or what?

 

oh yeah...one more thing was that on this particular strut....the top strut bolt that u use with a hex key...seems to be really hard to take out and screw back in also...

 

everything marked before taking out? alighned? torqued down?

 

yes everything was marked...aligned...and torqued down...

 

that top bolt with the allen key cut in the top is a PITA!

you need to get it pretty tight though, should be threaded on about 1/2 inch or so... that could be the source of your problems.

 

what else can be done if it dont stop wobbling if i tighten that top bolt up?
