Hi,
My car like so many others is giving me a slight knocking/ rattling from the front left.
Its most noticeable going over sleeping policemen/ speed bumps. Cruising at 60mph on motorway I hear nothing.
Its a full service history vehicle with 150,000 mile on the clock and receipts state that both top front suspension arms were replaced a year ago and anti-roll bar links were replaced 2 years ago. The knocking was not there when I picked the car up 15,000 miles ago.

Any ideas would be welcome.
I'm getting it looked at tomorrow so I will update.

Drop links could be worn, get the cv joints looked at aswell, also the suspension arms that weren't replaced would benefit from a check over.

As posted, check the other components. ARB bushes or worn tie-rod end, or even lower ball joints.
