Metallic knocking from front left?

Hey Guys,

Im getting a metallic knocking noise from the front left hand side of the car. Its normally only audible if I go over a bump or when im reversing with some steering on.

Any ideas?

Sounds similar to a problem I had. Was control arm rear bushes. I changed them all to poly bushes but the solid audi TT rear bush has received some good feedback on this forum

Control arm or ARB bushes I think.

Or possibly the top mounts depending on the mileage
