Guys,
Just replaced both front strut assemblies in an 01' S60 T5. I Used IPD HD upper spring seats, and then the upper bearings & miele strut assemblies (from FCP groton). Original spring seats were cause of most noise. Reassembled and started getting noise when turning slow into a parking spot. Replaced both lower ball joints and sway bar links (IPD HD links). The turning noise is now gone, but now I have what sounds like the Spring is loose. Its a rattling sound. Checked for loose Sway bar link. I'm kind of out of idea's. Maybe its the brand new bearing? I'm going to pull the entire strut out this weekend to look, but I'm not sure anything will stand out.. any ideas on what to look for?
