Octy FL suspension

Featured Replies

Hello all,

My suspension seems to have gotten rather noisy recently so will be jacking it up @ weekend to have a poke around! Has got 56k on clock and hasn't had any suspension parts changed since owning it @ 13k.

Anything common on the FL estate's that suffer excessive wear etc for me to have a look at?

My old Vectra used to suffer from leading ARB bushes, the noise is more noticable on a very bumpy road!

As always thank in advance!

BIG Nick :)

I too have a similar issue. Most noticible when driving over speed bumps. Dealer has looked at this 3 times and they say it is a "normal" characteristic and they just lubricate the joints which fixes the issue for a week or so, then the noise returns.

Interesting you had a similar issue a previous car, i used to have an alfa 156, which was notorious for noisy droplinks and ball joints.

sorry i couldnt help more.

Buddy of mine had his front suspension replaced under warranty at around that mileage..
