Knocking from Koni's?
i just started hearing knocking nosies when i go over small little bumps at speeds under 35 mph, i dont hear it when im on the freeway or on big bumps. seems like it comming from the front drivers side, i can hear it and feel it on my sterring wheel and/or brake pedal. i have progress springs on also, just got the koni's about a month ago. has anyone else had this problem, what could be causing it?
any help would be great

does it make a knocking/clicking noise when you turn the wheel too? i don't have konis so i don't know what might be wrong. maybe it's not tight enough? i'd get it checked out if i were you.
I have the same issue! I have stock struts and sprint springs! My car does it almost everytime when I shift hard or floor it! It makes like a pop noise that sounds like the transmission or motor or struts moved backwards! MY CAR IS FALLIN APART QUICK! But I think that it is the bushings that connect at the a arm and the under body front of the car! Or motor/transmission mounts! I will let you know when i get mine fixed! Im going to take it to honda and see what they say!

If it makes a noise when turning the wheel, the top-perch is not lined up correctly. That's is the reason you get the noise when turning the wheel. Our struts are a pain in the ****. I know, I changed mine 3 different times.
I am running koni's and H&R's and have this same problem, a kinda quiet ticking/knocking at slower speeds from the front drivers side. I took it to the dealer and they couldn't pinpoint it. I have checked all connections and bolts so at least I know it isn't toooo serious [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] Oh well, the price we pay for a quality suspension setup I guess....
