What up all? I am having some problems with my Ksports. Not sure if its them or something else. I am getting a grinding/rubbing vibration and noise coming from the front drivers side. It only happens during acceleration, and can still be heard when maintaining speed, but not coasting or braking. The noise/vibes are lessened when turning. I got suggestions on CV and wheel bearing. Im thinking CV, due to the fact its dampened when turning. Im not tucking or anything, no slammin here.

Any ideas? Its pretty loud, and Im almost afraid of something snapping...

Thanks!

 

Could be axles.
Could be dirty coilovers
Could be coilovers that need re-greasing (pillow mounts)

 

Ehh, the coilovers aren't dirty...I cleaned em up a lot before the install. I'm thinking CVs, just because of the fact that its not nearly as pronounced when turning, and it honestly feels like it is trying to impede/inhibit my acceleration.

 

I guess the install didnt go as smooth as you had originally thought?

 

I tell almost everyone this: Check the dust shields. Sometimes when working on the suspension, you can bend them and they make a terrible noise.

 

Oh, the install went lovely Haha. I am going to check a few things today.

 

yeah i have the same problem how ever i am dropped about an 1 1/2 or so down.. its weird i was noticing it on accel and decel..though...and its almost as if its only when the supspension is on the rebound up....
i had it on a lift today looken at it..and i have checked the collars and every other bolt on the thing... some help would be aprrieciated..
its a click/grind/thunk noise...am i just ephed?? lol
and i do have k sports..

 

i ahve the same problem, on left hand turns but only when u hit the throttle, so im pretty darn sure its my axle...

 

K-sports click...thats just what they do. I don't know if we've ever fixed them, but check the K-Sport thread in the Suspension forum.
