from front will be tie rod ends from the end of the steering rack - does the knock go away under light braking?? then probably trailling arm bush (under drivers feet) or sway bar bushes - i've replaced all these on threeta - nearly quiet now!!

on the left i have new inner and outer tie rods, new control arm, new control arm bush....i think it may be the sway bay bushing as it looks sweet but could still be knocking round a bit

yes it does, it only knocks when im acellerating and driving normally and knocking stops when im braking... so anyone got any ideas what it could be?
