hi i bort some coilovers for my 182 and had them fitted and they seemed perfect at first but rescently the front left one makes a springing noise and clunks more when going over bumps, they have covered less than 600 miles. i checked them both and ther both set the same height, the only thing i noticed was when raising the car on the jack the left one came loose of the top seating and when i lowered it i had to make sure it went back nd sat correctly, the right didnt seem to do that. they are both sat happily but one makes odd noises. i havnt touched or fidled with the damping, could it be on a bad setting? any advice would be great, thanks

I had a similar problem on my old 172 after first fitting my old gaz golds, turned out one of the springs hadn't seated properly.

How old are theses? have you contacted Gaz?
