Um the spring is in an oil bath. The Judy xc has the "hydracoil" system. From the rockshox site"HydraCoil RockShox suspension system utilizing coil springs and open oil bath damper
" & "Open Oil Bath Free floating oil inside a forks lower leg. Used as a damping medium as well as to lubricate the fork's internals.

It is normal for those to have some springy sounds, like a coil/oil bomber. Or atleast all the ones I have seen or overhauled has made those sounds. Rockshox I believe said to wrap the springs in shrink wrap to lessen the sound. I dont think a little springy sound is to much to put with for the feeling of a coil/oil fork. Do you?
