bump...

need all the advice i can get...gonna get them looked at sunday! so far what i heard:
1. dont pre tension the springs...when the coilover is not compressed...the spring should be slighty loose...adjust the height from the bottom...
2. re-check all the bolts of all bolts loosened for the install..make sure they are tight
4. Check to see if the coils are seated..

Anything else is helpful..please let me know.. the sound is like a rattling....like something is loose.....and its only from the rear..

i had tension on my springs all around and had no noise. the only noise i had was when i hit large bumps, dips, etc because of the noise transferred.

i suggest you check all the bolts.. that's the only thing i can think of that would cause your specific noise. how many clicks did you set the damper to?

if you dont have any tension on your springs.. try putting tension on it to see if that will fix the problem.. your springs might be loose.

Currently 2 finger gap height....

so i tried EVERYTHING that was mentioned...ryan and his friend were really helpful...but the problem could not be solved...we unloaded, preloaded, adjusted damper, retightened all the bolts, lowered, raised...emptied the hatch...nothing worked...the coilovers just keep rattling while going at street speeds (even 5 mph over gravel....) i think the conclusion is blown struts...gonna call B+G and see what i need to do..doesnt help i bought them used.......i hope they can send replacements or loaners due to their lifetime warrnty...we'll see..so far everyone has said their CS has been great...... Thanks for all the help guys
