Hello i am having some serious problem with my Dc2 that i just got i cant figure what is going on with it, it seem like the front driver side suspension is alway dropping. First i thought it was the shocks so i got that replace and it look fine then the next day once i drove it and parked in the garage i notice is dropped again and i have no clue what is causing this please help me out.\

thank you very much.
 
suspension springs?

You should have checked these when you were changing the shocks, making sure all fronts are the same height and all backs are the same height.
 
Its not the shocks that determine the cars ride height, its the springs. Ive seen it happen on a few cars. My own sits slightly down on one side with nobody in it.
 
check your wishbone bushes could be worn and also remember the gear box on the driver side.

all the wheels were all sitting the same height.

so can my ground control coilovers be worn out because no matter how high i set it, it will still lower down after driving it.

Had you rear LCAs off recently?
i loosen it up to put in the gr2 shock about 2 months ago.

ok i will check the wish bone can this really cause my car to be lower on 1 side.

thank you all

please if you have other suggestion please do leave a comment.
 

yeah I thought this was funny too...as this is NOT the case in the USA.
Which brings up a good point, which is better balanced, right hand drive or left hand drive on these B-Civics.
