Is the shock seated properly into the spindle? Lastly, does the shock have a sleeve/adapter that fits into the spindle? I can't tell.
If that top perch is made of something other than metal, then it will just "squish" upwards into the camber plate when the car is on the ground. The F80 being a McPherson strut, it will have a hard time rotating if there is a rubber/urethane top spring perch.

Looks like that is what the kit comes with, that polyutherne piece based off the image. when I saw the spring floating and "clanking" I knew something was definitely not done right. Should the koni sign be pointed forward? I will be going in with a these questions on Friday. Worse experience with my car for something that was supposed to be simple.
