colonelq: Any updates on the i-link for the H-sports issue?...
I think I might have a loose rear sway. I'm bringing it in on Friday to have it checked out. Regardless until H-sport figures this out I will be going to the softer setting.

Well I switched to softer setting 2 k ago...
but only this week again have the knocking sound from driver rear as before, had stealership order a couple of I-links from the Fatherland as none were available in the U.S.
Hotchkis claims they never heard of it now, talked to Stasis they state oh yes very common issue that is why you need to spend 4 k on our suspension setup. Hmmm what to do?
If you ride the car hard I believe it will be an recurring issue , I'm just glad for ppl who have'nt had this issue and hopefully they won't have it in the future either!!!

Well, I don't drive my car hard at all...
I contacted H-sport and they said it's probably just a bolt coming loose. They also said they have no issues with their test cars. My car is at the dealer today and I will report back with my findings.
I'm a little disappointed in STaSIS telling you the solution is to order their suspension. If they didn't have an answer for you they should just say that. They do make an amazing product, but not everyone wants or has $4000 to spend on a suspension.

Update...
Turns out the noise wasn't the sway bars or SSP, which I was very happy about.
I'm still hearing a noise though that the dealer couldn't locate or duplicate.
A friend is going to drive my car tonight while I sit in the back attempting to hear where the noise is coming from. Now that the sway's and SSP are not the issue I have a feeling it might just be a panel or something.
