S SallySpeed3 Member : GT Mazdaspeed3, Cosmic Blue Jul 12, 2009 #3 How long have they been on your car? I hear it takes at least a week for them to fully settle.
R RichB Member : 2007 Cosmic Blue Mazdaspeed 3 GT Jul 12, 2009 #4 It shouldn't be making noise while they settle.
P PaPaSpeed Member : Mazdaspeed3 Jul 12, 2009 #5 Check the torque on the sway bar end links. That's what was causing my creak. Try to crawl under there under load with your 17mm and 14 mm, and tighten them down. Also check the top nuts on the bar and grease the fittings. Thats my guess.
