Mk8 front knocking noise

Postby Mytreg » Sat Oct 16, 2021 12:47 pm

Hi I have a mk8 transit van that has an annoying front end knocking noise coming from n/s
Mainly when going over potholes etc (sounds like the front wheels about to come off when really bad)
Local garage looked at it but can’t seem to find the cause
It’s a definite metallic knock has anybody else had or got this thanks.

Mine was the rear bolt that holds the bottom arm on.
The bolt goes through a steel sleeved rubber bush, the bolt seizes in and then becomes loose.
The garage had to cut the rear bolt off and replaced the complete bottom arm.
