HELP~~~~Emergency !!!!

I installed Swift spring yesterday, and I tested drive my car today. At the beginning, when my car was moving in the slow speed (like 15mph-40mph), I could hear squeak noises coming from my left side rear wheel ( sound like somethings are in contact). However, after I drove it for a while (like 10 minutes), the noise disappear :wtfsign: . I continued to drive it for half hour, and didn't hear any squeak noises again. What is happening to my car???? did I do something wrong when I installed my springs?
Any help will be appreciated. ~~~~
Thanks

Did you install the rear dampers facing the same / correct direction. If yes, then the springs might be just wearing in and everything seating properly. I would recheck all the bolts and connections to be sure. You dont want something coming off at 80mph...

I think the rear dampers facing the same direction. The side that has the end of the bottom coil should face the rear of the car, is that correct?
Also, when I installed my front springs, the second top place has a arrow says "IN", does it mean point in the direction of engine bay?
