bloody spax.... shox been fittred.... knocking sound from adjustable rears and one side and front.... whilst driving... spax wanted them bacjk for testing.... but i had to order some replacmetns and spax would refund this cost if the old ones were deemed to be faulty ....

replacements doing same thing at rear.... swap shox over still the same...
IF the shock is held whist the car is on the ramp and the car moveed up and down the knocking can be felt and heard through the shock....

noise also now gone from front shock... garage luckily had kept old rear shox and put these back on and no noise.. all ok..
am waiting for spax to call garage..... im getting a bit ******* off with it all now and then added expense of the labour etc... i now just want a refund from spax for the cost fo the shox....

what are your opinions ? I will check with the garage later today to see if spax have called them yet...

well ordered some AVO rear adjustables ..... and theres a completely different issue with them...

when up on the ramp and the shock is then fully extended, its longer than the originals fully extended by about 2 inches and it does not hold the eibach spring in place..... the spax ones i had the bloody refund for were 2 inches shorter than the originals ........

I have had to send them back to AVO for them to rework on the Shox.....

Im getting so ******* off now .... lol why is it so hard to match suspension for christs sake.....

allways buy matched set of springs and shox.... never different makes together
