I’m looking to see what make Peugeot use for their suspension springs. I have replaced the spring & top mount but still getting a spring noise when turning.

A friend of mine thinks it’s KILN but don’t think that’s correct.

Unless explicitly mentioned with the part description, PSA do not specify the manufacturer and OEM parts will be Citroen-badged and packaged.

Yeah I thought that. I replaced the springs with a sumax one but even though the top mount is completely tight it’s making the lovely spring doink noise when turning.

Re: Peugeot suspension springs (Parts).
As you know staff only provide official numbers for official parts - it's like a mine field out there with aftermarket and copy parts - so there's no guarantee on the quality or fitment for these - and it is common for the incorrect parts to be supplied or their database being incorrect so you get the wrong one for your vehicle - or it just isn't up to standard.
Of course it could be down to the fitter!

If the top is fitted correctly and sitting well I would check that the bottom is sitting correctly.

Yes I ask the stupid questions, because normally it is that simple.
