Anyone in OC area who knows their suspension.. need help $
Hi everyone,
I just installed my rear coilovers for my e92 and the passenger side is making loud clunking sounds, no idea what it is, checked everything and everything is tight, did the exact same install on the left side and it's fine. Thought it could have been the shock so swapped sides, and the right side still makes sounds.. I really need someone to help come take a look for me and help me fix the problem, I will happily pay you if you want, looking to get this fixed asap. I can go anywhere in OC. post here or pm me please! Thanks! coilovers are st coilovers

If you are willing to pay, take it to an Indy shop. Had this on an e36 M3 and it turned out to be a tear in the tower, welded up and reinforced my whole rear end and was good to go. Bullet in Costa Mesa is close to you and they can tell you what's wrong pretty quick.

Damn, I hope you figure it out. I am sure it's just something loose. Keep us updated!

A buddy of mine had the same problem but found out that something was upside down. Maybe it was the perches but I forget. On e36 m's, as the guy mentioned above, the shock tower housing rips and also I heard the same problem of e46's as well. But for an e9x, it was something simple. Id just take it off again and double check everything is on and correctly. Good luck!

Also, maybe the things aren't completely torqued down or is off by a hairline? Have a shop double check and hopefully it was something small
