newbie with noisy springs,,,I think

Hey everybody,

Just got a 95 gxe and installed eibach/kyb agx.
replaced all necessaries. strut bearings, isolation
sleeves on top and bottom coils, etc. Problem is
everytime I sit in the car initially or go over large
road imperfections I get a creaking noise... it sounds
like something is rubbing. Please help...

aftermarket parts first...did you install them yourself or pay someone else?...have them fix it if you did not do it...otherwise there are lots of factors that may be the cause...maily like a loose center strut nut on top of the hat inside the engine bay...

stock parts question...could be just worn parts that the other guy replaced already...

It's strange, I even hear the creaking noise when I first get out
of the car. I suppose I will have to take it back to the
mechanic that installed it and see if they can figure it out.
I have read that some guys on the org put a isolation sleeve
on the second coil to stop the rubbing... any thoughts...

have it too

I hear mine on the passenger rear. Slight metal popping sound. Here it when jacking up the car (front passenger side) and when going slow, very annoying.
