What Causes the Abnormal Noise When a Volkswagen Goes Over Speed Bumps in Winter?
1 Answers
Abnormal noises when a Volkswagen goes over speed bumps in winter are usually caused by aging or cracked components near the stabilizer bar, or by faulty shock absorbers. In such cases, it is recommended to seek professional maintenance personnel for inspection and repair. If abnormal noises occur when going over speed bumps, you can park the car on level ground and have one person stand on each side of the car, vigorously shaking it from side to side. If a creaking noise is heard, the rubber buffer blocks on the stabilizer bar may be the issue. In this case, it is advisable to repair the stabilizer bar or replace the components. If there has been no rain or car washing, check the shock absorber housing or dust cover for any oil leakage. Alternatively, during low-speed driving, if the wheels pass over road bumps or experience slight vibrations accompanied by a 'kong kong' sound, this indicates abnormal noise caused by damaged shock absorbers. If the shock absorbers are faulty, they can only be replaced and cannot be repaired.
