    *You should always spray/wipe down your coilivers with a silicone lubricant from the FIRST install to prevent rust, seizing and squeaking. And add some coilover covers just for extra protection*

    I'm going to try this on my FC. I don't have clunking noise, but I do get noise when turning the wheel while stopped. I'll give this a shot next time I drive it to see if it helps. I know some parts, it's not good to use WD-40 as it gets in the way of the grease its supposed to have over time, but worst case it will just mean hitting it with a little more WD-40 every few months to keep it freshly lubed.

    Thanks bro. Imma try all your tips. I got a deal on some maxspeedracing coilovers worth 500+ for 300$ i thoufht they were defective or something but every adjuatment i make i get a different issue hahhahaha. Thr biggest mistake i made was my rear left coilover.... I BROKE THE LITTLE KNOB.... on honda civics you tighten in the shock with an allen wrench at the same spot... not with the coilovers i bought... you tighten them with abold under so naturally ... i snapped off the knob...

    Just got new strut+spring installed on left front, it was whisper quiet for few miles and now its making horrendous squeak, crunch and bang noises. It was installed on that side first because old spring was broken, right front being installed on monday. I wonder is the noise because mismatched front suspension or did my mechanic screw up? I imagine there's no adjustment in stock parts? Also car pulls to the right. Visual inspection was ok, I'm no expert but seems to be in place.

    I wonder of this is issue with all Max Racing Coilovers just installed mine yesterday and hear the noise when I give it gas. Like front end lift is causing a "clank" I thought mine was too loose so I tightened it, tightened damper bolts made sure nothing loose and still an issue. I'm gonna try adding wd40 to ball joints. Thanks for the info bro. Subbed since your the only one with this info.
