Bit of a question, since the KWs have gone in, i keep hearing mysterious groaning noises coming from the underside of the car when driving along. Mostly on bumpy roads I think. Could this just be the coil overs settling in?
They skimped on it with the V2 last editions

For my car, the groaning noise comes from the doors and seals. Since the coilovers are so much stiffer than usual, I reckon it puts more strain on the chassis, and so the car would be twisting.
I've got KW V2's as well. Have you found that you're going around corners stupidly fast now?
hey matty, having fun around corners ? I had some mysterious sounds on bumpy roads too, but "taping". Rayray unbolted the top strut and realised that one of the bolts wasn't even finger tight..only matter of tightening the bolts.
As malteser pointed out could be from stiffness, I have some of that when the car is cold, backing out of driveway, bouncing on the guter gap.. the rear roof sounds like a sinking titanic, where metals are about the snap .
How are the coil over going mate... Wound her down any more
Hows the groaning sound ? found the culprit ?
Naw, hungover from a large nite on the town
I aint gunna adjust anything until i've broken em in with 1000kms, then i'll go nuts with the fiddlesing!
