P.s The installation is 100% correct, and everything was done according to the instructions.This is specific kit for bmw m2
I'm having the same issue also. It's only in the fronts and seems more so on the passenger side. The installer also noticed it during a test drive so double checked that everything was tight. He said give it a bit to see if it went away, while also letting things settle. I think the rears came with thrust bearing/sheets, which he also commented on being odd since the fronts didn't. May need to order a set for the if this is the solution. Very annoying being the price of the Ohlins and the additional shop cost to get these corrected.
