it does that on mine every now and again will it cause any damage mark?

[Gsi3.2]

nope, just annoy the heck out of you... have you got coilovers?.. if not have you got the spring mod fitted?

[vectragsi3.2]

dont think they are mate i bought it from a friend who already done them. he said they were bilstein shocks and eibach springs i think he had done! what are coilovers mate and whats the spring mod?

[Gsi3.2]

bilstein shocks and Eibachs are 'standard style' components..

coilovers are a type of damper with a smaller diameter coil wrapped round on an adjustable platform...allowing for lower ride heights than 'conventional' dampers..

the spring mod is a nylon sleeve fitted to the lower tail end of your Eibach front springs... Did you get one fitted when they were fitted to the car?

i dont know mate is it visable if i had a look?

[Gsi3.2]

you can feel if it's there on the bottom of the spring, if you take the wheel off... you're looking for a black or blue or green sleeve stuck on the bottom coil in the springpan..
