So I just installed some kyb-agx struts and Cobb springs on my 02 Wrx. But when the road gets bumpy there's like a tapping sound coming from the rear. It sounds like it's coming from the top hat area. I double checked and everything is tight on top. You guys have any ideas what the problem might be

 

i had the same problem, did everything to get rid of it but it just wouldn't go away. so i switched to coilovers

 

deffenite Tapping or possibly clicking? If its tapping then i would look for coil bind
(wear/dulling of the paint between coils is the easiest way to tell)

then look at your sway bar. It angle changed when you lowered the car so there could be a bind or interferece.

If its clicking then i would suspect a worn CV axle. and the change of ride height/CV angle could have triggered it to wear more rapidly.

 

It's more like tapping. It sounds like it's coming from where the top had bolts up to the car. Idk I think I'm gonna take them off and double check.

 

i have that same noise. it sounds like top hats too... have been too lazy to look. More like a thud type of tap... at low speeds over bumps.

 

It's really annoying haha. Someone help me

 

I had the same issue, there are spacers I bought and they fixed the problem. Here is the link: http://turninconcepts.com/product_in...roducts_id=234
