After 5 months of installing the kyb g2r shocks and struts. They are starting to make noise. What does that mean? Strut tower was used by the old one? Or otherwise? Makes noise especially when going over rough road and over little bumps like driveways when driving slow 5-10 mphs. Any suggestions would be mostly admired. Thanks!

 

Is it a distinct knocking sound that occurs if you go over speed bumbs and into drive ways? If so, I've experienced this as well

 

I don't think its a knocking sound. Just a noticeable enough sound when it's quiet. It sounds like when your on the rusted swings when you swing up and down you can hear a noticeable squeak. Something like that. I don't know if they installed the shocks correctly or not. I do hear sometimes front and sometimes back. Anyone?

 

is it cold overthere?? it might cause that squeaking sound

 

Is it not balljoints problem? You'll hear similar sound if balljoints are bad.

 

It's cold like 50 degrees F. Not freezing cold. Only makes noise sometimes. Like a creaking noise.

 

I noticed that my KYB Gr2s started squeaking lately in the right rear side of car. You can hear it when you sit on car, press down etc. I thought it would be the springs so I sprayed some lubricant spray on all joints and all over the spring but no luck. Any other suggestions?

 

Yes, it is cold over here. Maybe that's why?

 

Mines doesn't make sound when I press down. Only noticeable sometimes at quiet areas going slow over small bumps. Maybe it's because of the cold weather. I don't know.

 

I had a similar problem on my stock setup after having to drive through about a foot of water due to a flooded highway... it went away eventually and never came back... by eventually I mean after a couple of weeks.

 

Ball joints or something else not related to the kyb's?

 

maybe something else?
