Creaking coilovers

[benmanc]

Searched everywhere but cant find an answer.

Got some fk ak coilovers put on the other day and they are creaking when turning the wheel.

I have it at the highest setting right now.

New bearings and top mounts.

Is it normal? Is it be because they are highest setting or need settling in or something?

Cheap coilovers did the same on my MK3, I greased them up and it stopped it for a bit but it always came back.

But surely not everybody with these fk ak coilovers have the same noise..?

Would have read about it by now

i had the same after fitting my jom coilovers its kinda stopped now after 4 weeks, still dont really know where it came from but only happened since the suspension fitted/top mounts

Could it be because they are wound all the way up?

And bottom spring on fronts is really compressed to the max?
