Eibach Pro Kit

I had my springs installed for about 5 months now and I still hear popping creaking noise comming from the front when going over little bumps. I was told this is normal until it settles. Is it possible the springs were installed incorrectly? Please help!

Yeah, it's normal. If it continues, you should check to make sure the spring is seated correctly. Also, some springs have noise dampers on them that help cut down noise. (teins come with them) They're rubber strips that go on the spring.
I'm not sure if you can buy them aftermarket or not though.

Noises are never "normal"! OP should jack the car up, take the wheel off, and make sure all bolts are tight. A loose bolt, especially the two bolting the shock to the knuckle can make noise while turning. That is a first, and simple check. Also check the shock tower mount, and make sure those 3 are tight. Again, noises are not normal!

noises can be normal...it could be somethin as simple as a dried out bushing that is squeaking from the sway bar. If there was a bolt loose you would not hear a squeaking sound, you would hear a clunck as the joint moves from one side to another.

I have the same problem, installed the Pro Kits last Thurs..everytime I do a full turn on either sides, I hear a "knockin" sound..brought it over yesterday to my mechanic to get it checked up since he installed it too, greased up some the bearing on the top of the assembly and it went away - until today...

also, is it just my car or the wheel gap on both sides (front and back) are really not even?!?
