Suspension knock

Post by ODBODD »

I have a 2016 Megan's with about 30,000 miles. Have recently heard a knock when driving slowly over small bumps. Can't hear any noise over about 40 mph
It is difficult to determine where the noise is coming from. Have removed all wheels and checked ball joints and bushes but nothing. Am thinking it may be the top front suspension mounts. Should there be any movement when lifting the suspension? Help appreciated.

My guess would be anti roll bar drop link worn, the noise tends to move between a rumble and a definite tap at bumps. :)
I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!
I used to ride on two wheels, but now I need all four!

I had that on my kadjar and my previous scenic. It is caused by the anti roll bar bushes.
