Hi, my zed has developed a knocking noise that seems to be coming from the front end maybe around offside suspension area.
Only seems to happen when at low speeds around corners and reversing. Any ideas? The zed is 2007 3.0 si convertible.
Has m sports suspension, and the lower arms where replaced last may.
Cheers

Andy
 
Try checking the anti-roll bar drop links they are a common failure point and not expensive or difficult to fix.
 
Thanks will check the anti roll bar links, I don’t think it’s tyre skip, as it does going straight literally just creeping along when going forward and reverse, but I never hear it at speed.

Loose strut brace bolts are another very common source of knocking on the zed too.

I had this, just nipped the nuts up on the two braces in the engine bay, sorted my knocking/clicking noise :thumbsup:
 
Did you get to the bottom of it? Mines doing the same? (06 3.0si) low speed only drivers side.

Changed the Rear Control Arm Bushes this week and ARB seems tight and bushes and links were done earlier this year.
 
It’s seems to have stopped, maybe it was the braces but it still made the knocking noise after I tightened them, so all a bit strange, the knocking noise was coming from exactly the same place as you described.
