Got the H & R Cup Kit for my C320 (?)

I havent been to the forum in awhile (comps been broken), but just got the HR Cup Kit 3.5 installed in my C320 and I hear a slight clicking/rattling coming from somewhere in the rear when I turn my music off and hit certain bumps. Is this something I should be worried about or are the new springs and shocks just not very quiet??

i installed my cup kit myself and i have no clicking/rattling, make sure all the nuts and bolts are tightened properly... from what you describe, it sounds like it can be the top mounting point on the rear struts, maybe they forgot to tighten them completely!

HAHA, I got the same thing happening to me in the front driver side. I thought it was a hood lock and took it to the dealer and they said it was my strut and I had to leave it all day, but I didnt want to do that, so I'm taking it back to where I installed it.

loud or somewhat quiet? if you have the rear sunshade it might be that, i feel as though mine is making noises from the shade.

like mach430 said, somethings loose... check your rear shock mounting points... i don't think it would be the bottom of the shocks, because of the way you described it.

go back to installer!

something is definately loose. Go back to the shop and inquire about the installation. after i got my suspension done, car was smooth as butter..shouldn't have any issues if done correctly..good luck bud!
