herisites 0 Posted December 12, 2006 Are they damping adjustable? If so they probably just need setting up properly. If not then they should be fine and most probably fitted badly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blue_Joe 0 Posted December 12, 2006 Konigsports are dampening adjustable! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted December 12, 2006 too soft and they bounce to easy , the hard and they will jump on bumps - sounds as though your on one of the extremes , just need setting from the sounds of it , should be top adjustable using the white plastic key Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
heyzy 0 Posted December 12, 2006 A have the dampers set soft do you suggest i stiffen them up? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted December 12, 2006 heyzy, i would they are probably bouncing , have a play til it suits your driving , they're easy to adjust (well at the front anyway lol) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slimg60 0 Posted December 12, 2006 When I had my konigsports fitted they were really stiff, even set to soft, but free'd up after driving with them for a while. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NickVR6 0 Posted December 12, 2006 mine were very harsh to start with. someone told me to set them hard and drive for 2 weeks then adjust them softer again. They are now as soft as poss on the back and half a turn front and i think they are great tbh. Not so good on 17s but on the 16s with a big drop they are no harsher than the OE setup imo you got new top mounts? if its clonking it may be those, or perhaps one is not seated correctly.

heyzy 0 Posted December 13, 2006 I am running on 17 alloys and although i have never adjusted the rear dampers they are set on softest whatever adjustment i make to the front the problem is still there though it does improve when its at its firmest. My top mounts are about 2 years old. Its not too good on the motorway either. Maybe they could be fitted wrong but i cant see how. Cheers for your replies.

Mike Edwards 0 Posted December 14, 2006 I was wondering if it was bouncing off the bump stops... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
