suspension

Hi all,

I have a query which might not be an issue but might as well ask and see. When ever I enter my parking or go over uneven terrain I can hear the suspension making a weird noise as if its brand spanking new and sort of squeeks etc. Is this normal?Confused

RE: suspension

No, get your dealer to look at it. The suspension should be silent but there have been similar comments from a couple of other members. Are you sure it is the suspension and not the seats?

A Pangea Green New Defender 110 First Edition is now sitting on my drive alongside British Racing Green Electric Mini Cooper SE Level 3. After 21 years in my hands my TDI300 90 was handed on to the next custodian on 15 July 2022.

RE: suspension

Yes, positive its not the seats. The sound is coming from the suspension as I enter my parking when one wheel raises first before the other

RE: suspension

I got a reply from the dealer in Cyprus and they said it's normal due to the adaptive dynamics which are on the car. Can anyone verify this ? Still not a satisfactory answer for me

RE: suspension

No AD doesn't squeak, it silent as it's simply an electrical current around the dampers, no moving parts.

I go over a very fierce speed hump some days and get a small knock if I go a little fast but think that is the wheels dropping back down ontop the road as noticed it in other cars too,

Otherwise silent.
