Intrax coilover knocking

[billyboysm3]

The rear is knocking like a b*tch, they were serviced 2k miles ago.

When warmed up it gets better.

Is this f*cked and unsafe to drive or does it have to be sent to intrax asap.

Well p*ssed off!

There is nothing wrong with your intrax mate, you just have to buy a real suspension, aka Ohlins.
This will solve issues permanently.

Depends if it is knocking because a bolt is loose or because the damper is fucked LOL? If it's internal, then sounds like a seal has gone. However, it could be the rose jointed mounts? If not fitted with a rubber "sock", dirt gets into the ball and fucks it and then they rattle.

Sounds like damper is fucked, checked all bolts but will take off later tonight.

Cars been to Elms and had everything else checked.

Send it off, from memory €90 each for a full rebuild plus parts and postage, 1 week turn around normally, Claudette is your contact over there

My intrax started knocking recently as well, did a trackday in it anyway. when I changed the wheels over at the end of the day, so the car is jacked up, you could move the wheel vertically with ease, damper had failed...
Intrax sorted it v quickly, they asked me to send both the rears to make them identical.

now I have a creaking front, bizarrely it doesn't do it in the rain :(

Anyway, good luck, I am sure intrax will sort you out.

Cheers Shoggy. my wheel has no movement but will check later.

I drove the car knocking from Paris to silverstone and back....may reassure you a little if you are still on the continent.
