Much appreciated for your detailed issue with KW V3. From what you described, the workshop is on the right track for the fix as there was another thread that has the same issue with just ACS Springs and the solution was the use of a plastic hose (diy cut to fit the springs).

Then, i went back to the workshop. They told me that the mini spring and the big spring on kw v3 is making noise while turning. Both the small and the big spring will also turn slightly when you turn the steering wheel. They recommend to add some hose into the spring, and in fact the noise is gone.

Thus, i still feel uneasy with those solutions, and decided to place back the stock suspension with eibach spring kit.

Body rolls are definitely improved, but the handling on kw v3 is still better. The comfort level is still good as compared to kwv3.
