It is possibly the pillowball in the camber plate. It may be too tight right now, and will loosen up a little over time. A touch of grease can help.


One thing you pay a premium for is support after the sale. Meaning....help from the manufacturer diagnosing issues. Can you reach Megan quickly and easily if you have an issue? Can you reach them at all? Are they helpful if they are there at all? If you need set-up tips or install help on a Saturday or Sunday are completely screwed?

I know we provide that kind of help with all the coilovers we offer (KW, Ohlins, Moton, Bilstein, Cusco, etc.) because we trust the product and have used them ourselves AND get great support back from the manufacturer. When we have an issue, they are very very helpful and always available to us, which makes it a lot easier to help you.

I honestly don't know if Megan offers this kind of thing, but it's definitely something to think about.

thks I will do that.

also when I turn the wheel to the right I hear a clicking sound, like something is rubbing against something. but I dont hear it all the time.

maybe its from the strut bolt.

I did tighten it but I don't think its still not tight enough (don't have the right tools right now)
here is the wierd part, after I start the car and start driving I would go over numerous bumps and there will be no squeaking, but after driving for about 10 minutes the sound slowely comes out.
