    Knock Knock

    Hey guys just after some help, a few days ago i strange knocking sound started on the left side(thats what it sounds like) but its only when i got over a speed bump or bumps in the road will it happen..
    What i mean is when the shocks get extended while going up.. If anyone has had this happen or could help out, you are a legend!!

    But i do have an idea its the shock itself or the strut bear, maybe even my bushes..

    cheers ned

    Strut top bearing and bush would be the first point to check.
    Open the bonnet and see how high the tops sit above the strut tower, there should be a little gap, but when the bush fails the gap opens

    I've had the same thing since installing ground control camber plates, mine is on the right side tho and sounds almost like the springs are knocking around
