Just installed BC br series today on my 2011 gsr and the front driver side coilover just started making noise. Its mostly when im turning the wheel. Does anyone know what that can be from?

A few of the basics to check would be:

Make sure the coil pre-load is correct. If the spring is just floating, loose in the collars, that would be a prob

Check the locking rings, ensuring they are tight. Should be tightened using a drift & hammer

Check the center nut on top of the strut tower to ensure its torqued

Ensure all mounting nuts are torqued
