Finding out noises from your automobile frequently is never comforting, so hearing noises on your Peugeot Partner suspensions when you pass a speed bump can be stressing. This indicator may be a sign of a insignificant issue as well as a warning of a much larger repair to come. In any case, it is important to check the origin and take the necessary actions to solve the issue, it is with this intention 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 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 Peugeot Partner
Check Peugeot Partner suspension
If you encounter a suspension noise when you pass a speed bump on your Peugeot Partner, 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 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 verify if this is the issue that worries you, take a dented road and focus on the noise coming from your front axle as you circulate over holes. If it is indeed the cups, think of replacing them fairly quickly or you may affect other parts and have to make more important repairs.
Check the cardan shaft
If you are here because you have searched for “Peugeot Partner 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 In fact, when the cardan bellows get out of date and the dirt/dust builds up inside them their working is degraded and it is possible to experience a sound when they are in torsion. To verify 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 changing it or them. If you have the feeling that this noise is more like a a loud noise on Peugeot Partner, don’t hesitate to refer to this content.
Check steering hinges/stabilizer bar
Finally, when you recognise a suspension noise when your Peugeot Partner passes over a speed bumps, it is plausible 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 situation, the parts that may have been destroyed by normal wear and tear or impacts (e. g. sidewalks). The steering hinges, the stabilizer bar hinges. can be the origins of your noises, to verify it, put it under the vehicle and apply twists on each of its components to verify that there is no particular play on one of them, they are meant to endure you quite strongly over their entire travel. Please remember to take your Peugeot Partner to your mechanic or replace them if they are involved.

Check the stabilizer bar
If, alternatively, you have a noise that is more like a squeak when you pass a speed bump with your Peugeot Partner, it is possible that it is the stabilizer bar itself that is concerned. In fact, abnormal/pronounced wear of the latter can cause unusual friction which can cause this squeaking noise. Remember to verify by going under your vehicle the condition of the paint on your bar which will indicate if there is friction. Second possible explanation, it may be your stabilizer bar silentblocks that are dry and bring on noise, in which case remove them from the cradle and grease them, this should solve the issue.
Check engine silentblocks
Finally, last case that we can verify together, it is the engine silentblocks, in fact, these silentblocks act as pads/shock absorbers between the engine and the cradle of the automobile, a noticable weakness of these will create a subsidence and therefore a space between the engine and the silentblocks, it may appear that a squeaking noise happens when you pass a speed bumps or any holes with your Peugeot Partner. To replace them go to your mechanic.
