I installed my Eibach pro-kits about a month ago, now i notice a strange creaking/squeaking sound at low speed over rough ground or bumps

anyone have any insight to the problem?

I have the same problem with my H&R springs.
Its really annoying.

I have the same thing, except for it developed into a clunk, which is even more annoying.

Did you guys torque everything properly? I have Tein S-tech's and no creaks, although the left rear creaked a little until I re-torqued the upper perch nut...Also make sure all the springs are properly seated in the stock rubber perch mounts...

hmm, i think so, how much does it need torque does it need (i don't have a torque wench)

No creaks, squeaks or clunks w/ my H&R springs. And I've had it for around 4500km's already

I've re torqued a couple of times, still didn't help.

I don't remember off hand, but I will look it up when I get home...

Like some of you guys, I've noticed the same noises coming from my car with my Sprint springs.

Since my 2002 LX has drums in the back, I found out that my brake line was just rubbing up against stuff and creating a lot of noise. I simply moved it out of the way and there was no more noise from that side, but the right rear side still makes noise and it's not the brake line. I'm thinking it's the top strut mount not aligning correctly with the spring, or it just isn't torqued properly.

I regret installing them myself because I didn't know what could go wrong until after I was done with it. I'm probably just going to go to a mechanic I've gone to before (he installed my exhaust system) and tell him to redo my springs. The front left spring also makes a little noise when I have no music on (which is rare).

so i think i found the problem
on the front passager wheel/strut one of the 2 bolts that holds the strut to the brake assembly was completely loose and rattling around ANNNND the little bolt on the top that holds the spring compressed was about 2 turns loose

its scary i was driving it like that, so i went through the whole car and tightened all the bolts i messed with when i installed the springs (only those were significantly loose)

Good thing i found it too, cuz I am just about to leave for tahoe and having my suspention crap out half way there would not have been a fun thing

now i just gotta try to get 5 people and their luggage in my poor little pro5
