Ok so got the washers that were missing causing the knock.. All sorted now and the car feels planted now and no Knocks at all... So happy days
Must say they're very road compliant and not harsh at all... Would highly recommend these to anyone thinking of going coilover route...

You sure it's the washers and not the foam/rubber looking bit which has worn?
If you contact bilstein in Leicester they should be able to help.

Sorry Simon these were the only pics I had... Take the coilover off push down on it if there's play movement you know something's missing

The setup went great, he's a nice guy and certainly seems to know his stuff. The car felt very different on the way home thats for sure. With all the other handling mods ive recently fitted and now set up correctly the car handles like something else
