Day 3, and still no problems.

Who'd have thought it was something as simple as that.

Did suggest that on another thread, but only after Mark counted out the top mounts as we originally suspected when standing by the side of the car and turning the steering wheel. It was defo coming from the top of the wheel arch, as you heard yourself. So if not top mounts, I guess that was the next place to look.

To me it was always a creak, rather than a knock. ...tbh. But then I only heard it that one day. Is the back more settled now with new donuts?

It was both.

Rear donuts weren't changed, rear of front wishbone bushes were.
