knocking noise o/s/f wheel

[jamesworth]

HI, Im getting this knocking, sound from the front left wheel area. Which you notice more over holes and bumps. It was quite bad and also caused a clinking noise from the ns front. But when you hit the break would go.

Anyway been garage. new link rod replaced and lower ball joint replaces. clinking gone. knocking not as loud but still there . i think its guna get worse again!!!!

any ideas on what this could be ?!

Check Anti roll bar has not moved and is hitting consoles.

Could possbly be a worn track rod end, that was what caused my light knocing over small bumps.

Conks.

Check that your bush end stops are intact

As Conkerman said a worn ARB can knock against the wishbone bush consoles.
