Annoying sound from the suspension

Hey guys, so I have been annoyed by the metal knocking sound from my rear suspension when driving over speed bumps or bumpy roads. I have H&R springs on, and the shop told me there was nothing wrong with the installation.

It's a 2012 E350coupe with the appearance package, not sure if it has the agility control.

Did anyone have the same issue? Any inputs are appreciated !

Thanks for your inputs, but could you explain more? I am not that familiar to the Stabilizer end links? is it because I changed the lowering springs?

Changing out the suspension components (springs) shouldn't have had an effect on the vehicle as far as any odd noises. I refer to the Stabilizer bar end links because they are a typical wear item that would cause that metal knocking sound. They are relatively cheap and most likely your problem as long your springs were installed correctly.
