They were fine (silent) untill I sold the car, so can't give long term update any more.

Hi...my Formentor also has q ratteling noise right front on oneven road also when full lock steering and then drive away the same noise...it appears to be the dust cover on the shocks that have to be mounted on a specific way and that seems to be an issue that is from the original mounting in the factory.
Dust covers cost €20 a piece.

Where did you get that TPI? Did they install the new dust covers on your car? And did the knocking stop after installing the new covers?

Yes...the sound is gone.
A helpfull mechanic from the Dealer send me this after he had a customer with the same issues.

Did you replace the dust covers for a fee? Or under warranty?
Could you send me the part number of the covers they installed or other documents confirming the replacement? I'm still dealing with my service center.

It was 30 minutes per side..tire of..shocks lose etc.
It cost me €20 per side and then €40 labour costs. I will look for the parts number and i'll get back to you.
