Word, glad it worked out. It was the top strut mount bolt in the rear… the bolt that goes through the strut housing and the strut was a little loose. I’ve been on stock struts with my H&Rs for about 10k now and haven’t had any issues. They aren’t a great match with the springs performance wise, but they will definitely work fine until you can upgrade. ---

Looks nice man! How many miles are on it atm? I give it 12,000 miles befor the stock dampers are blown. generally drop springs on stock dampers casue premi. valve failure in the struts/shocks. Not busting your balls, just giving you a heads up, incase you didnt already know. ---

Not busting your balls, just giving you a heads up, incase you didnt already know. his spring isnt very aggressive so they should hold up ok. it is about as low as a euro model S4, with the same red dampers. but given their age, they are probably well worn anyway. get some bilsteins and call it good :thumbup ---

I dunno, I just saw a sweet neon driving into work today, dumped out and the ass end looked like a fat kid on a po-go-stick every time it hit a bump. So I guess I thought of that when i replied. lol ---

Or if you are getting a chip you can have the rear o2’s coded out. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/dropped-the-esfour/253481.md?page=1)
