Hearing noises from your automobile frequently is never comforting, so discovering noises on your skoda yeti suspensions when you pass a speed bump can be worrying. This warning sign may be a sign of a small trouble as well as a warning of a much larger repair to come. Whatever the case, it is essential to check the origin and take the necessary actions to solve the trouble, it is with this intention in mind that we wanted to write this document to help you see more clearly. We will first see the possible reasons for a crack when the speed bump passes, then, what can be the reason of a squeaking noise when a speed bump is being passed and finally what to do if you have another noise when a speed bump is passed.
Suspension cracking noise skoda yeti
Check skoda yeti suspension
If you notice a suspension noise when you pass a speed bump on your skoda yeti, and it is characterized by a “clack” or cracking, it is highly plausible that your suspension block is the origin of it. Indeed, it may be the suspension cups, which, when they are dead, have the rubber (silentblock) that acts as a buffer and shock absorber for the upper part of the suspension that no longer fulfils its job during small bumps that compress the suspensions. To examine if this is the trouble that worries you, take a dented road and listen to the noise coming from your front axle as you drive over holes. If it is indeed the cups, think of changing them as soon as possible or you may damage other parts and have to make more important fixes.
Check the cardan shaft
If you are here because you have searched for “skoda yeti suspension noise” and the suspension is not the cause of your problem, it may be that the cardan shaft is responsible. Indeed, when the cardan bellows get old and the dirt/dust builds up inside them their action is degraded 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 make a turn at low speed. If it cracks in these two situations you should consider replacing it or them. If you have the feeling that this noise is more like a a loud noise on skoda yeti, don’t hesitate to read this document.
Check steering hinges/stabilizer bar
Finally, when you detect a suspension noise when your skoda yeti 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 modify direction. If this is your situation, the components that may have been damaged 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, place it under the automobile and apply twists on each of its components to examine that there is no special play on one of them, they are supposed to resist you quite strongly over their entire travel. Remember to take your vehicle to your technician or change them if they are involved.

Check the stabilizer bar
If, on the other hand, you have a noise that is more like a squeak when you pass a speed bump with your skoda yeti, it is plausible that it is the stabilizer bar itself that is concerned. Indeed, abnormal/pronounced wear of the latter can cause unusual friction which can generate this squeaking noise. Bear in mind to examine by passing under your automobile the condition of the paint on your bar which will reveal if there is friction. Second plausible point, it may be your stabilizer bar silentblocks that are dried out and bring on noise, in which case remove them from the cradle and grease them, this should eliminate the trouble.
Check engine silentblocks
Finally, last case that we can examine together, it is the engine silentblocks, actually, these silentblocks process as pads/shock absorbers between the engine and the cradle of the automobile, a noticable weakness of these will make a subsidence and therefore a space between the engine and the silentblocks, it may happen that a squeaking noise happens when you pass a speed bumps or any holes with your skoda yeti. To change them go to your technician.
Other speed bump noise skoda yeti
If, even though all its assumptions, you still can’t find the source of the noise your skoda yeti makes when you pass a speed bump, we advise you to read this article on a loud noise on skoda yeti or to visit your technician in order to carry an in-depth check on your skoda yeti and find this trouble.
