BC BR Coils installed, weird spindle like noise

Z-Girl 12 · 09-08-2012, 06:39 PM

So I had my coils installed along with the SPC front arm etc. It rides great, however there is this spindle like noise coming from the front driver side that is loud and annoying. It makes the noise while turning, braking and initial take off. Seems to make the noise with weight adjustment. What gives? My mechanic is going to take the coil and control arm off and reinstall next weekend. I was hoping someone may have some ideas of what could be wrong.

Thanks for any thoughts.

Probably some possible movement in your SPC bc it isn't tight enough or an adjustment nut is loose. I had the same with my rears and noticed movement in my rear toe rod.

Thanks! My guy fixed it whatever it was, it makes no noise now. However, I am taking it in tomorrow to have him raise the front just a tad, every now and then my front wheels rub the fenders. But I am loving the ride and look.
