I've been hearing a lot of reviews regarding SoloWerks Coilovers have that "squeaking" noise when going over bumps or what not.

For the ones that have different brand coilovers do you guys have the same problem?

I'm really considering purchasing coilovers but dont want that stupid noise on my car.

[Eyce]

BAM


i need new pictures

st's (sorta anyways)

and frame is notched.

with front and side votex

This is amazing!

When you say ST's sorta... new springs?
Did you get rid of the seat at the rear and just have the spring sitting on the arm or is that not possible. I did this with my 07 mazda 3 for the extra 3/4 " of low

Do you have pictures of how much you notched? notching scares me

[itskohler]

Dont be scared.

[Eyce]

Dont be scared.

Ive had my car less then 2 weeks. 450km on it... 300miles. What would a notch do to warrenty... VOID? any one know?

yes this is what he did

[dubsmcb]

yes this is what he did

that...and i use the shadows of having a black car to my advantage

the votex lip and skirts helps too. despite the zipties, spray paint, tape and the fake wheels, the only heat i ever get from people is that my car is 'liplow'

Warranty will be OK, but by notching your frame you are essentially totaling your car.

[Eyce]

So Insurance may reject me if they find out i guess... hmmmm decisions

Liplow is the new "laying frame"

They'll only find out if you tell them.

Has anyone had issues with alignment after drop on coils or springs ? Mine does.

Thanks

did you get an alignment after install?

[Mk6-GLI]

did you get an alignment after install?

This If so make sure your perches arent "walking", make sure they are locked up, and if the are camber is adjustable make sure that is tightened up correctly and not moving either, this happened on my old car and it was throwing it off. Just check everything again if you did the alignment afterwards.

st's go stupid low. so low that i cant handle them... which is why im [shameless plug] selling mine [/shameless plug]

UH... Please define to Low? Because my understanding is the ST coils drop the front 34mm... 1 1/8" and the rear 58mm.. almost 2".

Thats piddly.
My BC Racing coils on my Mazda dropped its 5" then i got custom springs etc... Total drop = 6.5"

Yes My local shop did Align the car after the coils but pulls to the right....

They told me alignment was good as per computer.....

They called me up today that they did another mk6 gli and had the same probl so was wondering if any body else with coil had that similar problem

what suspension...

KW V1

Correct me if I'm wrong but those coils don't have caster/camber udjustments right? I think their bull ****ting bro, cause there really isn't a way to get a car with a non adjustable suspension to within factory peramiters. I think they just wanna save face!! IMO, I may be wrong, but pretty sure I'm not. I have a 2012 GLI Autobahn with fully adjustable coilovers and my car is allinged to almost exact factory specs. And it drives perfect and straight all the time, Sorry man I hope you get it worked out.

Not if you have State Farm. My 330i got a bend in the frame from my wreck and they refuse to total it.

Assholes.

That's because your car is designed to be repaired after a wreck, hence the sub frame. Repairing it cost them less then totaling it! But yeah they all suck!!

Bend was in the actual unibody frame, not the subframe.
