Finding out noises from your auto frequently is never reassuring, so listening noises on your Hyundai Veloster suspensions when you go over a speed bump can be stressful. This warning sign may be a sign of a small issue as well as a warning of a much larger repair to come. In any case, it is essential to check the cause and take the necessary actions to eliminate the issue, it is with this aim in mind that we wanted to write this content to help you see more clearly. We will first see the possible causes for a crack when the speed bump passes, then, what can be the cause 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 Hyundai Veloster
Check Hyundai Veloster suspension
If you experience a suspension noise when you pass a speed bump on your Hyundai Veloster, and it is characterized by a “clack” or cracking, it is highly possible that your suspension block is the origin of it. In fact, it may be the suspension cups, which, when they are outdated, have the rubber (silentblock) that acts as a buffer and shock absorber for the upper part of the suspension that no longer fulfils its role during small bumps that compress the suspensions. To check if this is the issue that worries you, take a dented road and pay attention to the noise coming from your front axle as you go over holes. If it is indeed the cups, think of replacing them as soon as possible or you may damage other parts and have to make more important maintenance.
Check the cardan shaft
If you are here because you have looked for for “Hyundai Veloster 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 In fact, when the cardan bellows get out of date and the dirt/dust accumulates inside them their working is deteriorated and it is possible to experience a noise when they are in torsion. To check 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 conditions you should consider swapping it or them. If you have the feeling that this noise is more like a a loud noise on Hyundai Veloster, don’t hesitate to refer to this document.
Check steering hinges/stabilizer bar
Finally, when you know a suspension noise when your Hyundai Veloster passes over a speed bumps, it is possible that the hinges or the stabilizer bar are responsible. Exactly like the gimbals, the steering part is mobilized when you modify direction. If this is the case, the components that may have been damaged by usual wear and tear or impacts (e. g. sidewalks). The steering hinges, the stabilizer bar hinges. can be the causes of your noises, to check it, position it under the car and apply twists on each of its components to check that there is no special play on one of them, they are meant to resist you quite strongly over their entire travel. Remember to take your vehicle to your auto technician or change them if they are involved.
squeaky noise speed bump Hyundai Veloster
Check the stabilizer bar
If, alternatively, you have a noise that is more like a squeak when you go over a speed bump with your Hyundai Veloster, it is possible that it is the stabilizer bar itself that is concerned. In fact, abnormal/pronounced wear of the latter can cause irregular friction which can generate this squeaking noise. Remember to check by passing under your car the condition of the paint on your bar which will reveal if there is friction. Second possible explanation, it may be your stabilizer bar silentblocks that are dried out and bring on noise, in which case take them off from the cradle and grease them, this should resolve the issue.
Check engine silentblocks
Finally, last case that we can check together, it is the engine silentblocks, in fact, these silentblocks function as pads/shock absorbers between the engine and the cradle of the auto, a evident weakness of these will create a subsidence and therefore a space between the engine and the silentblocks, it may happen that a squeaking noise comes up when you pass a speed bumps or any holes with your Hyundai Veloster. To replace them go to your auto mechanic.
