*UPDATE* Checked axle bolt ok, still not sure about the axle itself… so had complete 4 wheel alignment done today at Ian Brown Tyres - Malton UK. Excellent service and competent staff. All steering and suspension and nearby components solid and in good order. Thinking axles or engine mounts for the source of the knocking noise…The quest continues..
