Why is the suspension of my Changan Oshan X7 so noisy on speed breakers?

I’ve noticed clunking o r rattling noises from the suspension when going over potholes o r speed breakers. It feels like something is loose underneath. The car is just 10,000 km driven. Is this a common issue with the suspension o r bushings in Pakistans road conditions?

Yes, suspension noise over potholes, speed breakers, and rough roads is a known concern, especially in Pakistani road conditions.

Causes include:

Harder suspension tuning: For handling and stability, the suspension is tuned a bit stiffer, making it more likely to transmit bumps and noises.

Low-quality bushings: Some users have reported premature wear of rubber bushings and mounts.

Loose components: A few cases involve slightly loose struts o r link rods from the factory.

What you can do:

Get it checked by the dealership for any loose suspension parts o r worn bushings.

Ask if the suspension can be greased o r dampened.

Avoid overspeeding on rough roads and heavy loads, which increase wear.

If under warranty, parts should be checked and replaced free of charge.
