I fitted up some Spax RSX coilovers on my 1.6 sport a week ago, and set the front to as high as it would go.

Ever since they were fitted, the OSF groans when i turn right

Not sure what is up, had it looked over, lubed it all up, played around with it... I just dont know.

Most people would just get used to it, but it fucks me off, i need to sort if before i get angry

Anyone else had this trouble???

Ay help appriciated.

I can actually see the Top turret slightly move, then click back, thus causing the sound.

Tried lubing it, but fock.. it just wont stop.
