It will be interesting to see if any of the vendors or manufacturers submit replys to this thread. I suspect they will stay away from comments because I bet that a majority of us have noises eminating from the car after the installation of aftermarket coil overs or springs that were not there when it had stock springs and or shocks.

What? Neither of my Swifts made noise and for that matter, neither did my coil overs.
My H/R in the Focus make no noise. Installation, quality of product -- all go into noise. A properly installed item is a big difference than a hack job.

Robispec KW V3s and they've made a variety of noises since installation. It bugs me - a lot - but I've learned to live with it.

This is my setup and I get rear rattles and occasional front noises as well, especially in the cold.

My Robispec KW Clubsports were completely quiet with the stock tophats, til I put on some camber/caster plates. Now it clunks and clungs.
