KW V1 - Slight knocking

[marshall]

Ben do you have the spacer between the two rubber bushes on the rear end? Mine knocked until I got my original drilled out to fit the shafts.

Managed to get a washer under te nut. Can see where the thread isn't long enough to torque down..

i give in. Mark fish can investigate.

Let us know mate how it goes.

Well got to the bottom of my knocking it was the KW struts play and the bearing under the top mount had had it,so new top mounts and struts is going back to KW to replace or fix which could take up to 3weeks as they go back to Germany:thumb1:

Anyway i have my old FF suspesion on the fronts and KW on the backs,It drives like a boat!!

SOME NICE BIT OF RAKE GOING ON NOW

The metal tube that goes over the threaded part? If so, yes I have that. Everything was fitted by KTEC so not sure exactly what was done when they fitted them but everything was perfect until recently (been on the car 18 months ish), not even sure if it's suspension related to be honest, could be body twist that's causing it because it's only over bumps at low speed

Well after 2months mine is all sorted no knocking and so glad to get them back on
