Hi,

 

I have Tein Coilovers and the ride feels very good. However, I am concerned whether they are too low. My exhaust scrapes when I go into my drive and sometimes if I go too fast over a speed hump. It never used to do this when I first got the car (2 months ago). The exhaust is not hanging down.

 

How does Coilovers work as I aint got a clue! Is it possible for them to lower themselves if the device used to lower/raise the suspension is not done up tight enough?

 

What could I check to see if all is correct and whats involved in adjusting them?

 

Thanks

There is a chance that if they are not tightened up properly they could lower the ride height. You need to take the wheels off to check that the coilovers are tightened.

 

When you have the wheels off you can adjust the ride height. you just need the TEIN spanner things which cost about a tenner delivered.

 

I hope that helps...
