Anyone with a Ford Fiesta 1.25L Zetec, does the car make sounds whilst driving over bumps in the roads?

For instance --> skeaky sounds, rattles etc?

Answers:
if skeaky is squeaky then two possible areas, first try and work out front or back of the car, if front there is a bar that sits between the two front wheels with rubber bushes, these dry out, as a temporary measure squirt with washing up liquid and see if the noise goes away.

If the noise is from the back check the exhaust mount, on a rubber block at the back, give it a good wash and try again!
Your best bet would be to get it taken in as those symptoms are usually associated with parts coming loose. Though this is from general experience not from ford fiestas.
my fiesta used rattle/squeek from the n/s/r corner,
stripped it all out inside, then stripped all the outside,
still rattle's!
eventually sorted the problem by turning up the stereo!!
(problem was actually the n/s/r top shock absorber rubber and a loose n/s/r seat clip)
hope this helped?
common causes for fiesta rattles - wishbone rear bushes, top suspension mount bushes, anti roll bar drop links, anti roll bar bushes, take your pick.
maybe worth a few quid of your local garages time to pinpoint the problem.
