Hello again ladies and gentlemen. I recently installed a air ride suspension on my accord and i am having some problems. I am REALLY picky when it comes to my car and suspension is one of my pet-pevs. I understand that i'm not suposed to ride all the way up or down, but i am hearing a lot of noise. It seems like the noise is coming from the back cylinders and them hitting the button of the strut tower...i don't know what to do. Also...it seems that the ride is a bit bounce and its starting to hurt my neck and back. Am i just a pussy or what??? haha...can anyone help me out? Thanks!

 

When you go cylinders you sacrifice ride quality. Its normal to have a bouncy ride in a car equipped with cylinders or bags, you should of known that before you got the system. :doh: The noise could be anything. Check the fitment and clearance of the system. Some parts of the system may have been installed real close to other parts of the vehicle cause them to rattle, rub, clunk, bang.. etc. Long time rubbing and banging of parts may lead to damage later on down the road. Also check the lines and see if they are swaying and if they are, zip tie em down and secure em as best you can.

 

:thumbup: thanks for the advice buddy, but i rode in another accord with the same system and it rode like a caddy.

Does anyone else have any logic behind this madness???

 

I'm just taking a wild guess as i know nothing about air rides but maybe it hasn't settled yet or something????

 

you may need to invest in a set of accumulators. they act like springs for your air cylinders. that should fix your chirpractic problem, but if you have a leak, i'd spray some soapy water on your connections and see if that truly is the case. best of luck.

 

Thanks guys for the help. I think i'm going to try the accumulators and see what happens out of that. I do know that i don't have any air leaks. Again, thanks!!!
