1 BC coilover

[Mitchell3]

Where could I get just one BC coilover? I'd rather go back to stock before buying another whole set.. Already have one last resort but it seems overpriced, waiting on nextmod to find out, other than that I dont know where to look.

[Hyperion]

Front right one eh?

[Mitchell3]

Yup, well its been moved to the drivers side now through efforts to find the issue but never could fix it.

I considered leaving it because it got so rare but apparently it doesn't like rain. Goes from 3% to 90% of bumps on the road making noise..

What's wrong with it?

[Mitchell3]

I bought them off Tozer who had just shy of 600km on them if I remember right with no issues prior to them coming off. Once they were put in my car it knocked on most bumps. I took it into a shop and they replaced end links, took the coilover apart, didn't find anything, broke my axel, switch coils to make sure it was just the coil making the noise. They can't find anything. Best they could do was tighten everything which appeared to help but as I said after a couple days of dry weather its almost gone. As soon as it rains a decent amount its back in full force. My guess is the rain is making something move more freely in order to knock? Hell if I know what that is though.

You can probably contact bc directly for a repair or replacement

[Mitchell3]

Perhaps I'll ask Jordan, but he made no mention of any warranty.

[The Wolf]

I don't mean for warranty necessarily. But I'm sure they'd sell you just one

[Mitchell3]

I suppose they'd have a disclaimer anyway about professional install I wouldnt meet.. I glanced earlier on their site and didnt see anything in terms of buying.

[Dave_The_BMXER]

What noise is it making?

I ask because I have top hat for a BC setup.

[Mitchell3]

The only way I can really describe it as a good loud knock as if a major component was knocking around. Now that its on the driver side you can feel it as well on the floor when it does it.
Edit: Can't think of another description for it other than the sound youd expect for a baseball to hit your hood.

I have this exact same issue after putting like 5000km on my new BC's

So its not just me lol. The sooner you can get it fixed the better, because the longer it goes on it gets worse. Last time by the time I got it replaced I don't think I could drive over a toothpick quietly.

Did you check your top hat if it's loose?

what did you replace though? I'm thinking it might just be the end links that blew

The entire shock. They replaced the end links and it had a very slight improvement.

I contacted BC a month or so ago about ordering half a set of coilovers for a ms3 (the rear half to pair with my H&R fronts for more lows). They told me it was no problem and to let them know asap since it's considered a "custom order" and theres a few weeks lead time to get the order together. Definitely give them a shout asap if it's urgent!

[Punkrockjohn]

It's very likely this is the problem considering they are still so new, im gonna get in there and take a look

[Punkrockjohn]

can someone weigh in if the problem got resolved?
