Definitely Top HatHey, did you figure what was the cause of the knocking sounds? I’m currently having tht issue with stock suspension
Im looking at these currently, what your opinion on the firmness the op mentions, how are they for you ?After reading this post
I saved up and bought my first coilovers, Tein Flex Z , so far best ever mod/decision Ive made.
I'm now having this exact same problem with the exact same noise however mine is constant only at lower speeds. Top hat changed but did not solve the issue. All taken apart and nothing obvious is the issue. Is going to have a look again this week. 2015 GT-S 82000kmYep definitely. We also had an issue with this weird popping/creaking sound after driving on the highway (- daughter was asleep in the back seat) when it still had factory suspension. I took it to the Subaru dealership as well as a local suspension shop and neither could replicate the issue after seeing the video or find any issues at all with the steering or suspension parts (the problem would only present itself after a long drive).
Maybe it was the top hat? I'm guessing no one else has experienced this sound? Was worried it might've been a cv joint or something. Steering wheel didn't have any shakes or play. In any case, that sound hasn't reappeared since getting the coilovers.
I have similar sound when I'm reaching traffic stopper, but it is one tap. Mechanics said there is nothing wrong with suspension. My case is annoying, I cannot imagine how your case is irritating..I'm now having this exact same problem with the exact same noise however mine is constant only at lower speeds.

Problem solved. Threada on the strut where the centre nuts fixes were goosed. Spacer washer installed between top mount and nut. Noise gone away. Was clearly a little loose.I have similar sound when I'm reaching traffic stopper, but it is one tap. Mechanics said there is nothing wrong with suspension.
