I am hearing noises coming from the suspension during conering. Is this just the springs settling and will it go away faster when I get the wheels aligned?

Any help would be appreciated.


Many Thanks!

It will take a few weeks for the springs to properly settle. I've found with both my cars once the springs were installed, they did creak for a few weeks.

I've also thought that when the springs are installed, the car is up in the air and there is no weight on the suspension. When the bolts are tighten and the car is lowered to the ground, it puts extra stress on everything and if the bolts aren't torqued enough, there might be a little movement which causes the noises.

On my '98, when I got an oil change at Honda a few weeks later, I had them check and torque all the bolts properly and the creaking stopped. I'll do the same with my '03 the next time it's at the dealer.
