Re: Fitting coilovers

Yep im in the same postion except mines eams to onle come from front drivers side!!!
also its knowcked ma trackin out loads n right hand bends r veryu sketchy atm as my coilys have cahamber adjustment too so that means full wheel allignment.
back to the noise, mine is more of a squeaky sound pretty constant really. i cant see anythin touchin like anti roll bar drive haft steerin rods so i fink it must be the strut assemble too.

Re: Coilover advice plaese

I've got these fitted http://www.europerformance.co.uk/pa...&car=fiatstilo&manufacturer=kw&sub_category=1 mainly because they're stainless steel and won't rust. The rides not as smooth as it used to be but then the car doesn't roll around going round corners anymore either. They're dead easy to adjust the ride height as well but they are expensive but not as expensive as the ones I wanted with the button on the dash that adjusted the ride height for you (we can but dream).
