Help! Creaky Front Suspension Doing Speed Bumps.


Recommended Posts

Posted

Rather a lot of these nasty wee humplets in the middle of the road these days.

Not sure if I've hit one (more?) a touch hard of late, but have noticed my fronts creak (I think more left than right) even when rolling over them at low speed, albeit with enough oomph to compress the shocks.

Not really sure what's up. No creak when I bounce on the front corner meself (but then the car don't bounce much anyway!) and she sits four squre with no leaning at rest and no funny business in the handling department. Can't see much wrong under the arches.

Anywhere else I should be looking? Top mounts perhaps? Would appreciate any techy input.

Cheers folks!

well been out playing ;) and on mine its coming from behind intercooler. I think its either a intercooler mount, engine mount if there's one behind there or a pipe etc rubbing.
