I was fortunate enough to pick up a set of F-Sport Springs... used

I heard about them making "clicking" noises during cornering... and this got me a bit concerned. I know that they are progressive...and I assume that is why they are a bit different from everything else i used in the past.

I was wondering if anyone did anything to eliminate this noise, and if you did...I would like as much info as possible...


Thanks in advance,

Anton

If you are talking about the clicking noise from the steering column, I've had that since day the car rolled off the show room without the F sport springs.

If you meant the clunking noise, I forgot they exist till you brought it up lol. I wonder why people want to get rid of that noise, honestly even on my 18", when I hit a pothole hard enough to make the springs clunk, usually I am more worried about how my back hurts and if my wheels got bent.

I have the dealer trying to figure out the cause at the moment. It's really just a nuisance more than anything. I'm thinking it's caused by coil slap to be honest and can probably be remedied via silencers which give the springs a little more cushion when the coils touch. I haven't tried it yet though.

What are silencers and where do they go?

Silencers are like rubber, plastic sleeves that go on some of the coils which help with noise.

I can't seem to find them online... Can anyone suggest a source?

Am I the only one who remembers Lexus issued a TSIB to fix the problem by replacing the F-sport springs with an updated version?

I also remember the TSIB (not that it's some accomplishment). I know some CL posters used Tien siliencers prior to the TSIB.

^ thats correct. the TSIB fixed the issue. I had a set of the TSIB springs before. No Noise.

hey i have eibach springs, i don't have to hit a pothole to hear the clunking noise
mainly its uneven rounds, but sometimes its not even that bad and i still hear the clunking noise...any way to get rid of this?

when driving out today i heard something from my rear wheel driver side, it sounds like clicking sound, the dealer just changed my rear brake pads
i dont hear the sound when the stop isnt in motion
