Re: Knocking noise

Sounds like your ARB Bushes have had it.

Had it myself.

Re: Knocking noise

antiroll bar bushes, mine make same noise. sound rather loud inside car- i thought a wheel had come loose it was that bad. if its a early car (mines 02) the rollbar has a sleeve on it to fit into bush,and are unavailble, so roll bar required(£60+). i got some polybushes 19mm bushes and these don't need sleeve so i am going to try these,
