So a bit of a mess really. I have just fitted bilstein b12 kit along side medlye HD control arms have, lollipops, drop links, powerflex anti roll bar bush and Sach top mounts.

Just lowered the car to test drive. Large knocking from the front and engine management light popped on the second I turned the ignition.

Pretty stressed and fecked off
Does anyone have any ideas
 
Just guessing, have knocked any of the sensors abs or such like, code reader is you best bet, if you say where abouts you are am sure the forum can find someone to read codes
 
Based in Inverness so I'm not sure how many members are around the area. Gutted about the knocking it's very loud just don't have a clue what it could be
 
The knocking may be something is either loose or to tight, did you use the correct torque for the various parts, also did you touch the diagonal cross brace in the engine bay, that goes between the strut towers and the center of the bulkhead
 
For doing the control arms and lollipops I couldn't get a torque wrench in so they were done tight within reason. I assume its not a noise that will disappear once settled etc
 
Just a little update a loose bolt on the top mount. Knocking disappeared and running amazing. Friend has code reader so we are all good y
