Your car started "knocking" on me about 3 months ago Envoy .It drove me nuts and I never did find the cause but it made the car feel "old" tbh.Mind you I did have it almost 5 years I suppose. If you have nothing nice to say,say nothing at all. |

I have it, only on the left side. Everything is fine and works well. Maybe it is not from the suspension, bushes or any mounting bracket or frame, also no play in the brake components or wheel bearing.

Suspension knock of the RRS type is impossible on the FFRR

I can tell you any knock the FFRR would ever have is nothing compared to the one I had in the Discovery 3. It never went away, I just sold it like that! |

My knock is still there and is more noticeable on the N/S but it is definetley from the suspension and not a lose component rattling It is as loud as the RRS TDV8 that i had sooooooo much trouble with |

That knocking is doing my f g head in also having had a RRS that had knocking ft suspension i wasnt expecting to have a FFRR with a knock I know Doc it cant be the same but it does sound the same. So nothing has been replaced so what is it then, surley there must be an expert out there with some idea? |
