I will not let this camera get the best of me, nor these springs!

 

Bumstops trim... I trust this is the image he was referring to.

 

Well Karen, if your going to show yours, then I'm going to show mine. SPRINGS, that is. I think our photos pretty well show what the problem is and why the noise. Mine is at ride height without anything in the vehicle.

Remember now, there is one more coil that is inside the two coils that are touching. In essence, when you hit a bump, you are most certainly going to have coil bind on the lower part of the spring. And springs don't like coil bind!

But I showed both, but that is the jest of the problem.
Thanks,

 

same as mine also..as i stated in my post.2 or 3 bottom coils touching each other..makes rubbing noise when driving and hit a small bump

 

So triming this will eliminated the problem?

 

i have my bump stops trimed as pic and i still have same thing with springs..noise

 

I got my springs today, I'll be getting them installed soon!

Any further updates on the 'noise'? How many people are experiencing this 'noise'?

 

i have the noise but after a time you get used to it and don't pay attention to it and besides that the hhr just looks to darn good lowered to change back to stock

 

Still have the noise at times even after spending the little extra for the fix that Gold line has on their web page, from a Honda Dealer.
Still have not decided as what to do next. Stops are cut, can't go back to stock with cut stops?!
