Problem With Tien Coilovers
I've brought it back to the shop 4 times and still they couldn't find what the problem is. Its making noises feels like it has free play and when i get out of the car it smell funny like metal striping or something, Its not the tires rubbing the coilover cause i put my stocks back on. If anybody know what the problem could be PLEASE HELP THANK YOU.

what do you mean by free play noise? Is it the front or the rear? Give us more details on the noise.
