A new problem has creeped up in my 2011 Figo TDCi Titanium (40K km run) now. The front suspension makes "squeak-squack" noise every time the car crosses a speed breaker at a speed more than 10 KMPH. The sound is very similar to the sound of boot opening. It is observed to be coming from dashboard area. I tried strongly pushing down the bonnet by hand standing beside the front wheel outside (both sides). Suspension bumps up only once (does not bounce) as expected and there is no sound heard from outside.

The wheel alignment/balancing was done 5K km ago and is pending now. But I doubt it will address this issue. 40K service was done around 2K km ago and this issue wasn't observed then.

What could be wrong here? Has anyone faced similar issue? What should be my next steps to troubleshoot this?

Thanks

I know exactly what you are saying and I am facing the same problem on my 38k done Figo TDCi. The suspension seems to be OK in terms of bounce and resistance but there is that noise that comes every time I pass over the plastic speed breakers in my society. The bigger ones with correct slope give no trouble but the plastic ones that has a steep rise and fall in a short distance seems to stress the front suspension some how. I tried approaching at an angle but that does not help much.

I was facing a rear suspension problem, they replaced the shock ups and then the suspension too. Squeak squeak still was there. Till I asked them to hoist the car up and we saw the left rear springs were not aligned properly. Realigned and noise gone.

I don't know if the same might apply to the front suspension.

The plastic speed breakers are a major turn off, no matter at what speed & angle you approach them, they tend to stress the suspension & cause issues over the long run. But ensure you tackle them at the lowest speed possible, my Swift had faced many hassles due to them, so I am extra careful with the Figo.



My Figo is giving out the same squeak squeak noise in the rear side could it be the suspension or the boot?. Will have the same checked during the 20k service (currently running at 17.5k), or do you suggest that I have it checked immediately.

That squeaky noise is not from the suspension. It is from the C pillar plastic trim.

I faced the same at 33K kms so I removed the trim, put tissue paper and AC duct insulation and the voila!! the squeak disappeared.
The A** guys were asking me to change the whole strut assembly at the back. I did not and did this DIY.

78K kms now and no issues with suspension till now. Squeaks came back at 60K (roads are really bad at my place) but again I put some paper in and sound gone.

Thanks, I have similar problems. Today the vehicle is under service, they have identified some problem with the front suspension. On the rear we were not able to reproduce the issue completely. Let me check this DIY later.
One general question, Do suspension changes in part or whole come under the warranty? The Service guy this morning was telling me that some parts have a warranty of only 20K kms. Is this true?

Guy was adamant its the rear shocks that's cause of the noise and not the bearings.

I am quite sure it is the bearing itself. Shocks will not create a humming noise and go away after a certain speed. Don't know what these service advisor takes us customers for.

I have the same issue on my Figo's rear left and after many posts to and fro on this thread, finalized it was the bearing itself.

Wow, even am facing this issue on plastic speed breakers. But can't hear this noise on any other occasion. If i tackle breaker at 4-5 km hr speed, it's fine but anything more the squeak sound is there. I'll be sending my car for 10k service within week, will ask them to inspect the issue.
