Troubleshooting

Noticeable clunking noise over bumps

Check that all mounting bolts are torqued to factory specifications and verify that the top mount hardware is secure.

A professional 4-wheel alignment is necessary to ensure suspension geometry is within specifications.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Improved handling stability and road-holding performance
  • Pre-tuned damping removes the guesswork from installation
  • Excellent compatibility with standard or lowered springs
  • Reduces body roll and improves braking response
  • Backed by a reliable 2-year warranty

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Koni STR.T shock absorber should ideally be performed by a qualified mechanic to ensure proper seating and suspension geometry. As a component that directly influences steering and stability, a full wheel alignment is required after installation. While these units are maintenance-free, it is recommended to inspect them during routine oil changes or tire rotations for signs of oil leaks or physical damage to the damper rod. When installing with lowering springs, ensure the spring seats and bump stops are verified for compatibility with your specific vehicle configuration.
