My car has started making a clunking noise at the drivers side front strut at low speed while slowing down under engine braking or light braking , the car doesn't make any noise at normal road speeds , does NOT pull or judder under braking , had new struts and new bearings , new driveshafts (8000) miles ago I have no idea what it could be , anyone any idea?

Check your wheel nuts, I've had a similar noise one time when I forgot to torque my nuts up after dropping it off a jack

Check the wishbone nuts inside the car mate.

The car has had new wishbones and track rod ends this month and was making the noise before that as well , really does sound like it is coming from the strut/brake area

I am thinking it is the top mount bearing so I will just buy a new one and see if it sorts the problem if not awell its only £11
