Hi all,

I'm getting a knocking noise on the front drivers side, I thought it may be drop links and it does have a bit of play but when I had the wheel of and the car on axle stands when I jolted the shock n spring upwards there's a knocking I can't see any play either.

When I drive down a slightly uneven road I can here it knocking away

What could it be? Is this likely to be bushes and if it is where's best place to get them at a good price

Wishbone bushes? Ball joint?.... The joy of suspension knocks!

Cheers Dan think its gonna have to be a case of more investigation it knocks when I have it on full lock as well so any ideas that may narrow it down
