Suspension cracking noise Renault Laguna 2
Check Renault Laguna 2 suspension
If you encounter a suspension noise when you pass a speed bump on your Renault Laguna 2, and it is categorized by a “clack” or cracking, it is highly possible that your suspension block is the cause of it. In fact, it may be the suspension cups, which, when they are old, have the rubber (silentblock) that acts as a buffer and shock absorber for the upper part of the suspension that no longer fulfils its function during small bumps that compress the suspensions. To examine if this is the problem that worries you, take a dented road and focus on the noise coming from your front axle as you pass over holes. If it is indeed the cups, think of swapping them fairly quickly or you may affect other parts and have to make more important vehicle repairs.
Check the cardan shaft
If you are here because you have looked for for “Renault Laguna 2 suspension noise” and the suspension is not the cause of your problem, it may be that the cardan shaft is responsible. In fact, when the cardan bellows get old and the dirt/dust accumulates inside them their operation is deteriorated and it is possible to experience a noise when they are in torsion. To examine this, you can try both types of torsion, first vertical with suspension compressions on the speed bump passages, and horizontal when you are going to turn at low speed. If it cracks in these two cases you should consider swapping it or them. If you have the feeling that this noise is more like a a loud noise on Renault Laguna 2, don’t hesitate to read this document.
Check steering hinges/stabilizer bar
Finally, when you detect a suspension noise when your Renault Laguna 2 passes over a speed bumps, it is possible that the hinges or the stabilizer bar are responsible. Just like the gimbals, the steering part is mobilized when you adjust direction. If this is your situation, the parts that may have been broken by normal wear and tear or impacts (e. g. sidewalks). The steering hinges, the stabilizer bar hinges. can be the causes of your noises, to examine it, position it under the vehicle and apply twists on each of its elements to examine that there is no special play on one of them, they are supposed to endure you quite strongly over their entire travel. Please remember to take your vehicle to your technician or replace them if they are involved.

Check the stabilizer bar
If, however, you have a noise that is more like a squeak when you pass a speed bump with your Renault Laguna 2, it is possible that it is the stabilizer bar itself that is involved. In fact, abnormal/pronounced wear of the latter can cause irregular friction which can create this squeaking noise. Bear in mind to examine by passing under your vehicle the condition of the paint on your bar which will show if there is friction. Second possible point, it may be your stabilizer bar silentblocks that are dried out and create noise, in which case take them out from the cradle and grease them, this should fix the problem.
Check engine silentblocks
Finally, last point that we can examine together, it is the engine silentblocks, actually, these silentblocks function as pads/shock absorbers between the engine and the cradle of the automobile, a evident weakness of these will make a subsidence and therefore a space between the engine and the silentblocks, it may happen that a squeaking noise shows up when you pass a speed bumps or any holes with your Renault Laguna 2. To replace them go to your technician.
