I lowered my car with the JIC coilovers & 19" volks, now my AFS OFF light is flashing
I was just wondering if any of you guys with coilovers or lowering springs have had this problem. I know its not a big deal but its annoying me.
Also after I lowered the car, with the drivers side window down go 60+ mph, I am getting a whistling noise coming from the driver side mirror. I know its coming from the drivers side mirror cause when I fold it in go ing 60+ mph the noise goes away. It sounds weird but any of you guys have this problem also?
TIA
btw I have pics coming later today

I think the whistling is always there. I know that mine does it at about 70mph and it is stock.
How do you like the JIC's? I was going to order them today but I am worried about how they will ride.
Let's see some pics!!!

I have had the hardest time adjusting the coilovers, not cause they are bad, but because I have zero knowledge when it comes to doing anything mechanical, lol.
I finally got my mechanic to adjust them for me and they are great. They can ride exactly as smooth as stock (maybe even better) or as hard as S2000 or an M3 if you want. The JIC's are great and If you are thinking of getting them go for it. Also paul at JIC has awesome customer service, I dont care what anyone has posted about the company, they are great to deal with.
And yes the pics are coming, let me wash the car first

the AFS light blinking is not unusual. it has to do w/ the sensor arm that measures your suspension movement etc. My lexus mechanic Ted over at dynamic auto fixed in a few minutes...
