Since having my coilovers fitted i've noticed a banging noise which happens over certain bumps. Sounds like theres a tool box in front of the dashboard. My father reckons the wiper motor is loose but i think the sound is lower than that. Anybody heard strange clangings since fitting coilovers??
yeah check the anti roll bar hasnt moved, mine did it and when goin over certain bumps the drop link bolt threads were hitting the metal inner arch, turn your wheels so you can see the links and look for scraping marks.
I have just bought an Ibiza that has Eibeck 40mm lowered springs and also get a noise like that, I was looking around under the bonnet this afternoon and the airfilter box has a fair bit of play and can if moved enough hit something metal, I will take it off tomorrow and have a look and insulate with rubber to see if that was causing it. I sound like it is coming from about 18" infront of the middle of the glove box.
my problem was down to the anti roll bar moving a touch as i had coilovers fitted and had to get shorter anti roll bar links, not got the ibiza anymore, got an 06 passat, do miss it tho!
