Hi Yaniv, welcome to the forum . It is a sort of clunking noise, only when going over bumps etc, also when u turn the steering is there some slight play? Could be a ball joint in the wishbone. Any1 else got any ideas?

bottom wishbones favorite. anti roll bar? you need to get a long bar and put torque on the wishbone rubbers. if they move, they need replacing.

Let us know how you get on.

noise in straight line could be track control arms [usually gives tyre wear on the inside of the tread]. anti roll bar bushes or hanger broken. drive shaft worn.
