Have had a knocking from mine over the last few months, but not really used the car that much. Managed to get under it yesterday whilst it was up on ramps.

Drivers side droplink is solid not even moving up or down, passenger side has, at a guess, about 2mm of movement in it. Just going to order a pair of droplinks and a driver side wishbone and then all of the front suspension has been replaced in the last 2 years (Shock leaking on one side front and back, spring on oppositre side front for MOT)

The links  I ordered turned up on Tuesday were fitted yesterday, the old ones actually seemed in pretty good condition though  :-? which surpirsed me as a local vx dealer did a free check on the car back in september and had advised one was worn  ::) . Any way they have both been changed and  I did notice a reduction in the clunking  :) but  I think the wishbone bushes are starting to go although they were not an issue in March when the car was MOT'D
