I have another problem that you guys might be able to help with, recently i have been getting a knocking sound coming from the front right wheel, im not stupid, its not the wheel bearing and not the wheel itslef!

what happens is when i go over rough ground i get a knocking sound like something is loose, i looked a few times and cant find anything.

could this be a suspension problem? the bushes or something?

someone help me and tell me what to buy that would be great its annoying the hell out of me. cheers
 
either worn top mount, or worn ball joint on the suspension arm. both parts are around £30 in parts to replace. the worn ball joint means replacing the whole arm, which is a bit more work than the top mount.

you should also replace suspension parts in pairs
 
that will almost definately be the 'tie bar' - rollbar to suspension had same prob and replaced that and now fixed. costs about £20-£30
