Metal knocking sound on slow speeds J11
Hi all! Some metal knocking sound apeears on bumpy roads on slow speeds in the front left of car. I already unscrew wheel and check links, but sure it's ok. My car has 30k miles. Can lower arm make this sound or not?

Had similar, and replace the drop links. They form part of the anti roll system and tend to rattle as they get older. You need the suspension under compression to feel any play so difficult to check on your own. Fairly cheap item as well, but can be a sod to change as the nuts are near the wheel and tend to be a bit rusty, plenty of penetrating oil.
Past cars Mercedes B Class, S Class, E Class Estate, E Class Coupe, G Wagen, 260E interspersed with Peugeot 406 and Audi Coupe.
