Guys,

would like to know when your focus went over uneven roads, does the suspension sound transfer to the cabin? i know it should be soft thud but somehow it's quite a loud thak thak/thud sound

Yes it does. Unfortunately the suspension setup of the Focus is quite noisy on uneven or bad-surfaced roads. One of my colleague who is driving the Focus diesel(forgotten the model) also mentioned that his sister commented why the suspension of the Focus makes so much noise as if something is going to fall out.

Some comfort-tuned suspension types which are more quiet are from the likes of Nissan Sylphy, Mitsubishi Pajero Sport or Mercedes Benz. These vehicles soak up the shocks and irregularities of the roads more effectively when going over undulations or bumps on the roads whilst the Ford Focus transmits all the "flaws" of the roads + noise into the cabin more effectively than vehicles with more comfort-tuned suspensions. Somehow I do think the suspension of the Focus is tweaked for a more sporty and stable drive but comfort and quietness (on bad-surfaced roads) are not very good.
