Nah, you're cool. Chris said to bring it to the shop Monday and he's gonna torque the $hit [his words] out of the entire suspension. I emailed HKS USA and they agreed that it needs to resettle but there's definitely something loose up front. Chris said it may have happened when it was lowered back down. But seeing as how you never touched any suspension parts I still don't know how it happened.
you'll find out soon enough!
Glad he's going to do it, I would have charged at least $120.00

Nah... just jack it up like you would if it was stock... depending on your ride height you may want to buy a low profile jack.. Youll be fine i dont think blown coilovers happens to often.

Alright, I have a little update. As I stated earlier in this thread: my coilovers (one of the rears) make the knocking sound but I don't believe they are blown like the OPs. I got in contact with Stance on Friday and the rep that I spoke with told me that it might be the pillowball mount and that their new design addresses the issue. He sent one out for me at no cost with the few additional parts I ordered. I'll be replacing it this weekend and will let everyone know if it solves the issue.

yeah i received the replacement dampener for my rear.. installed it last Sunday and all noises are gone and works like a charm.. it only took Stance like a month to send it out... each time i called the sales rep told me he forgot to send it out.. but its all fixed now..

I called them today because I'm hearing a "knocking" noise from the rear. He told me check the nut on top of the shock and to set the ride height with rear spring and coil. Followed by matching the damper height to what the spring/coil was set to. If that doesn't work to call back.

I have the same problem right now. Jacked my car up for a oil change and put it in the garage for a couple of weeks. As soon as i took it out of the driveway the next time i drove it i got this weird rattle popping noise coming from the rear.
This is on a set of tein monoflex's with less than 8k miles on them
