Had my new 1.2 SE Yeti for less than a month now and I've noticed that the front suspension sounds a bit clunky when going over the kind of speed bumps you find in retail parks and housing estates. Keeping to 10 to 15 mph when going over the bumps and they are certainly the sort of bumps that my eight year old Picasso takes in its stride. Has anyone else found this and is this normal?

Hi and welcome to the forum,

get nothing like that from my 110 diesel on 16" rims, like your Picasso goes over bumps etc. without issue. Hopefully it may settle down in time, new cars can take a while to 'bed in'.

I have 7 speed bumps on the road down to my house, so thats 7 on the way out and 7 on the way back . Must say the Yeti copes with them well, much better than my X5 did which was hopeless, I think it was far too firm. I would add that I would never go over them at 10-15 mph probably more like 5mph and I don't care who I hold up in the process.

I came from a hard as nails Audi in which you had to do speedbumps at about 10mph. The Yeti now takes the very same speedbumps (in suspension silence) at about 40mph!!!!!! Wow is all I can say.

I have a 110 Tdi with 16 inch wheels and had a Picasso before. Going over speed bumps, the Citroen was better. Much softer suspension. The Yeti can be noisy unless you slow down.

Yes the Yeti is noisy going over speed bumps or over some bad potholes. A crashing sound, the Roomster courtesy car I had was better noise wise than my Yeti.

Haven't we had this before..... comparing 4x4 vehicles with saloons etc.
