Extended Product Information
FAQs
What is a bump stop and why is it important?
A bump stop, also known as a jounce bumper, is a rubber or polyurethane component that prevents metal-to-metal contact when your vehicle's suspension compresses to its maximum limit. It protects your shock absorbers, springs, and chassis from damage, contributing to a smoother ride and extending the life of your suspension components.
When should I replace my vehicle's bump stops?
Bump stops should be replaced if they show signs of significant wear, cracking, tearing, or if they are missing entirely. Symptoms like a harsh ride, loud knocking noises over bumps, or a feeling of the suspension 'bottoming out' frequently can indicate a need for replacement. Regular inspections during routine maintenance are recommended.
Can I install the Febi 40788 Bump Stop myself?
Due to the technical nature of suspension work and the fact that this product usually doesn't include fitting instructions, professional installation by a competent individual or certified mechanic is highly recommended. Incorrect installation can compromise vehicle safety and performance.
What does 'OE Matching Quality' mean?
'OE Matching Quality' indicates that the part is manufactured to the same standards and specifications as the original equipment (OE) part installed in your vehicle from the factory. This ensures comparable fit, form, and function, providing reliable performance.
What is PU (Polyurethane) material, and why is it used?
Polyurethane (PU) is a durable, flexible, and resilient polymer. It's preferred for bump stops over traditional rubber due to its superior resistance to abrasion, oils, chemicals, and extreme temperatures. This leads to a longer lifespan and consistent performance under various driving conditions.
How do I check if this bump stop is compatible with my Peugeot 207 CC 1.6?
To confirm compatibility, verify that your Peugeot 207 CC 1.6 model falls within the 2007-2013 manufacturing years and has the engine code 5FS(EP6C). You should also cross-reference the OEM part numbers (516693, 9682353080) from your vehicle with those listed for the Febi 40788 Bump Stop.
Troubleshooting
Unusual knocking or clunking noise from the rear suspension.
This could indicate a worn, damaged, or improperly seated bump stop. Have a professional inspect the rear suspension, specifically checking the bump stops for integrity and correct installation.
Harsh ride or 'bottoming out' sensation over bumps.
If your vehicle feels like it's hitting its limit too easily over road imperfections, the bump stop might be degraded, missing, or installed incorrectly. Professional inspection is required to diagnose and correct the issue, which might include replacing the bump stop.
Bump stop appears loose or dislodged after installation.
Improper installation can cause the bump stop to not seat correctly. A competent mechanic should re-evaluate the installation, ensuring all components are properly aligned and secured according to manufacturer specifications.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Installation of the Febi 40788 Bump Stop is a technical procedure that involves working with the vehicle's suspension system. For proper and safe operation, it is highly recommended that this part be installed by a competent individual or a certified mechanic. The process typically involves:
- Vehicle Preparation: Safely lifting the vehicle and supporting it on jack stands.
- Wheel Removal: Removing the rear wheel to access the suspension components.
- Suspension Disassembly: Depending on the vehicle's design, this may involve partially disassembling the rear shock absorber or spring assembly to replace the existing bump stop.
- Installation: Carefully installing the new Febi 40788 Bump Stop, ensuring it seats correctly.
- Reassembly & Torque: Reassembling all components to manufacturer specifications, paying close attention to correct torque values for fasteners.

- Vehicle: PEUGEOT 207 CC 1.6 models.
- Model Years: From 2007 to 2013.
- Engine Code: 5FS(EP6C).
Always cross-reference your vehicle's OEM part numbers (516693, 9682353080) with those provided or use a vehicle compatibility checker before purchase to ensure correct fitment. While cross-references like Magnum Technology A8P004, ORIGINAL IMPERIUM 31181, 51046, SWAG 62 94 0788, and VITAL SUSPENSIONS 516004 exist, direct OEM compatibility is the most reliable check.
Care
Once installed, the Febi 40788 Bump Stop requires minimal ongoing care. Its durable PU construction is designed for longevity. However, periodic visual inspections during routine vehicle maintenance can help identify any signs of wear, cracking, or damage that might necessitate replacement. Keep the suspension area clean from excessive dirt and debris to prevent premature wear on all components.
