I bought a second-hand Kia Sportage that's 10 years old. When going over bumps or speed bumps, the front chassis makes a creaking noise. I asked a repair shop, and they said it's likely the stabilizer bar bushings have aged. Replacing the two front stabilizer bar bushings would cost over 200, but they also mentioned that changing them might not necessarily solve the problem. Do you think it's necessary to replace them?

Use an oil can to squirt some oil for lubrication. 😁

My car makes noise too, but since it doesn't affect driving, I haven't replaced it.

I have a 2018 GS7, and there's a strange noise coming from the left shock absorber. It makes a "thud" sound when going over small bumps, but there's no noise over larger bumps. I went to the dealership, and they said there's an issue with the shock absorber and suggested replacing the assembly. However, they also mentioned that if I don't replace it, it's not a big issue, just the noise. I'm wondering how I should deal with this situation.

There's a squeaking noise from the front suspension of the Haval when going over speed bumps or uneven roads!

Help needed, the suspension of my V40 makes squeaky noises when getting in and out or going over speed bumps. I called for advice and they said it might be due to aging bushings. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Can the rubber bushings be replaced? The car makes a lot of noise when driving over bumpy roads.

Is there any car owner experiencing a noise from the right rear wheel? When the temperature is low, there's a squeaking sound when going over speed bumps. There's no abnormality during normal driving, and it doesn't make noise on bumpy roads. The shock absorber isn't leaking either. The car is only three years old, so it shouldn't be the stabilizer bar bushing issue, plus the sound doesn't seem like it's from the stabilizer bar bushing.

Do you guys experience a squeaking sound when the front wheels go over a speed bump or curb?

Taurus chassis noise I have a 2019 Taurus, bought in 2021, and it's now at 57,000 kilometers. Recently, there's been a serious noise coming from the chassis, and it gets worse as the weather gets hotter. When the vehicle goes over speed bumps or when the front wheels hit uneven road surfaces at different times, there's a squeaky sound from underneath, like metal rotating inside a rubber bushing. When entering the garage and turning the steering wheel left, there's a clunk noise from the front when the front wheels hit a speed bump. The same clunk noise happens when parking with the steering wheel fully turned while reversing. The noise is very uncomfortable. Any suggestions from fellow car enthusiasts? Has anyone else experienced this?

Does anyone with a V40 have a source for chassis bushings? I want to buy them myself and then find a repair shop to replace them.

The repair shop suggested replacing the upper control arm bushing due to aging, but I found online that it might not be necessary. Any fellow car enthusiasts with experience who can help analyze this? The car has 84,000 kilometers on it currently.
