W215 CL500 Yelow Speed Racing convertion

Hi All. I've just performed the conversion of my ABC to YSR coilovers. Conversion was done in renowned service dealing mainly with suspensions. In relation to traction, behaviour on the read everything is fine and I'm pleased with it. But the problem is that my rear coilovers work in a very loud way. They make a very loud and annoying knocks on unevennesses of the road. These sounds for sure come from the inside, upper part of the coilover. It sounds like one metal part hit the other part. Has anyone of you encountered with the same situation after the conversion? I would really appreciate your thoughts. Thanks!

Mine are quieter than the ABC struts were :-) First thing to check is that the three upper nuts on each rear strut were tightened AFTER the suspension was let down from the jack and preferably driven a little.

Yes, the nuts were tightened. In general struts fitting was checked couple of times and all is correct.
