right guys ive done searches in this section and found out that normally it is a driveshaft or cv joint as it only happens at low speeds and has been lowered -40mm.

well i took the sax to my mechanic and told him the problem and what it could be, so he had a look and said that everything seems fine. :ponder:

he did hear the knocking noise and said there is definately something there
but the only thing that has a tiny bit of play in it is the top suspension mount and hes not 100% sure if thats it.

so does anyone have or has solved this problem and knows what it is that so i can go back and give him some ideas on what it could be.

thanks

mine was the cv joint went dry...lost all the grease even when everything looked ok.
took the rubber on the cv joint and no grease was there at all...which caused the knocking noise...well that what the garage said :y:
