question for you pro-c owners

had my coils in for about two weeks now. Last Friday i heard a weird noise, like metal slipping into place. I can hear its coming from the front driver side. Its happening when i first take off occasionally. I got under the car today, can't see anything wrong at all. No ware-n-tare, nothing loose.

Anyone else had this problem?

No problem with mine since day one. All I can think is to check if the collars are tight, endlinks, and all nuts/bolts.

I think I have the same problem. I didn't hear it during the first week, but now after two weeks, I am starting to hear the sound you are describing. Also, whenever I come to a complete stop and start accelerating, there is a creaking sound coming from the same coil (front driver side). I had left the 2 adjustment knobs in the fronts and when I checked it a couple a days ago, the front left side was missing, while the right front stayed intact.
One more thing, my ride is constantly bumpy. Even if I am driving on a straight road, it feels bumpy. My head constantly hit the headrest like a bobblehead. My guess is something is loose on the front left side. I'm probably gonna take a look at it sometime this week. If you find a solution to yours, let me know.
