In fact, the suspension cups, when they are dead, the rubber (silentblock) that acts as a buffer and shock absorber for the upper part of the suspension no longer fulfils its role and during small jolts that compress the suspensions.

It is likely that the cause of this problem comes from the direction triangle or the direction hinges. Indeed, a damaged steering triangle will be testable during the acceleration phases when it will move away and the car will pull on the outside of the weak triangle (left triangle pulls to the left) and when braking towards the inside of the same side (left triangle pulls to the right). You can also examine the condition of the swivel bellows visually, which may disrupt the action of changing direction. If you are in one of these cases go to your mechanic.

A bellows with holes will damage the cardan shaft very quickly and must be replaced very quickly, otherwise it will be necessary to change the entire cardan shaft. Remember to take a look at it and have it repaired if necessary. If it is rather a squeaking noise on Mitsubishi Space star 2, do not hesitate to consult this article to find the solution to your problem.
