If the noise happens when you release the clutch, this has been reported before. I used to have a problem, it went in for a service and I think it stopped then. There is a post all about this, if I remember correctly there is something that needs to be tightened. HTH

do you mean it does it under hard acceleration?

My Cupra is an '07 with just over 17,000 miles and I haven't noticed any knocking noises.

Good luck with tracing the fault.

Cheers
