Check Peugeot Expert Tepee suspension
If you encounter a suspension noise when you pass a speed bump on your Peugeot Expert Tepee, and it is categorized by a “clack” or cracking, it is highly possible that your suspension block is the origin of it. Indeed, it may be the suspension cups, which, when they are out of date, have the rubber (silentblock) that acts as a buffer and shock absorber for the upper part of the suspension that no longer fulfils its role during small bumps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 problem that concerns you, take a dented road and listen to the noise coming from your front axle as you pass over holes. If it is indeed the cups, think of swapping them quickly or you may ruin other parts and have to make more important repairs.
Check the cardan shaft

Check the stabilizer bar
