Drop links will definitely cause an erratic knock. Easy and cheap to change. Check the roll bar bushes too.

Get out & get under, give them a tug.
You should feel any play.

Easy fix

Jeff, you have said the 'current' owner suggesting the knok is on a car you are looking to buy. What is/was the car please? I am looking at a car currently up for sale through an auction and wonder if it is the same car. Thanks.

Hi, thanks for your time. I think I have traced the message trail in respect of your visit to Mathewsons, but that appears to be for a while 2.0L N695 ONY. Is there a seperate message trail you can direct me to with your report on N358 LGO please? Thanks. Glenn.
