You mention about replacing the stabiliser bar so that would rule that one out. That leaves the strut itself. The nut in question is under the grommet marked as #4 in the attached image, with the comments being that it may have worked loose. Having replaced everything else, it's worth investigating.
Thanks Steamship, I thought as much initially and sent back the new strut on warranty and they replaced it free of charge, same noise. So with my original old strut, then with the new strut then with another new strut same side same noise.. frustrating to say the least… cheers,
